Missionary work in California


Hello everyone!

We started teaching an investigator named Chris this week. He is about 27 years old, and he just got out of prison pretty recently. I think he was in prison for about 8 years or so. He is a super cool guy who wants to do what is best for his fiance, her daughter, and himself. His fiance is a somewhat less-active member, so they are going to get married coming up here pretty soon. He has been reading the Book of Mormon, and he says he really wants to know what is the right path for him. He committed to pray about the Book of Mormon, so we are looking forward to him getting his answer! If he gets baptized, he and his fiance say they are going to get sealed in the temple! It is super exciting because the temple is what we are trying to get these people to aim for, and that is what it is looking like for him and his fiance!

Transfers are coming up in about 3 weeks or so, and I am pretty excited for them! Transfers are always pretty exciting, so that is definitely something to look forward to.

It has been pretty nice weather the past week or so, and I am loving it! It has been around 90, and it is tons better than the 100s that it has been at. Humidity in some places around the country like Oklahoma would be killer, though...

Sorry, there wasn't a whole lot in this letter. I love you all! Keep living the life!
