Ramming Speed (oops from April 2018)



So a week or so ago, Elder F and I had a miscommunication about which direction we were going so he turned right into my back tire and rammer into it. Neither of us fell of, but we discovered we had broken a spoke. That is what the 25 dollars was for.

On another note, we have been playing the Oregon Trail game on PDays, and the game is so funny, because there is a chance almost every turn for you to just die and be done. Besides that there is nothing too exciting.

We had exchanges this week which was great except for the fact I left some things at our apartment which I had to borrow when I got there, and then I left some things at their apartment when I left. Besides that the day went great! We found a new Investigator, we taught a good lesson, and I got to be in car for a day.

I also discovered an excellent restaurant named Dickeys, it is a smoking pit resturaunt, and the location we went to had complimentary ice soft serve ice cream!

We got to do some great service this week, we helped clean up a mansion that has been converted for a charity that holds events for disadvantaged kids. We also got put to the test strengthwise, during our studies a member called us and said a friend was closing down his hair cuttery, and the people who were supposed to help him move didn't show up. So we went to his place with another set of elders to help out. The hair cuttery turned out to be very upscale. They had lots of big, real wood furniture. And a couple pieces that had metal in them as well. So we had a real workout getting all of that stuff up into the truck. It was an awesome experience because there was no way that guy at his age was going to be able to move that stuff, so it felt good to help him out.

The girl who is going to be baptized on the 28th is going to make it. She has been coming to church, reading her scriptures daily and coming up with questions, and is just doing real well. I am so excited for the 28th for that reason! who cares about birthdays when there is baptisms! (right Josh?)

This Sunday I finished biking up and down all of the big hills in my area. It took me five months bit I have done it. When I come back and show you Redlands, and visit the temple, I will show you all of the big hills I biked up. I also biked down all of them which was a lot of fun.

I love Redlands a lot
Biking here over winter, winning the lottery
The members here are amazing

That awkward moment you fat thumb and send an unwritten email 6/24/2019

Image
We had a couple of really good visits this week where we were able to get back into contact with people we haven't heard from in a while, and we were able to answer questions about what exactly we believe. We were able to talk to a lot of people on the streets as well this week, and for anyone who knows about or has been to San Bernardino that is a great time.  This week we had a long pday activity where we hiked up in the mountains. So this will be a short email, but there is proof I exist!  -Elder Bearman President Dixon  Is an amazing leader  leaves us on Thursday

And that's a Transfer!

Image
Leaving Space for Jesus I did it, I made it through a Transfer [ a six week period after which one or both missionaries in a pair are moved to a new location]  without my trainer acting on his impulse to strangle me, it can be done! We come from the Premortal life , ask your local Mormon about that one What is the difference between hope, belief, and faith? The Zone activity was a blast, we had hamburgers, unfortunately over the course of the week we became less thankful. Steak and hamburger, way too much. Too much. We went to visit Sister C an older lady in the ward, it turns out she was hilarious, we noticed she had a roommate to watch over her and help her, and so we decided to teach the Restoration and her roommate decided to listen in and she ended up asking questions, and she is now an investigator. She asked us what our opinion on visions are, why were the Apostles called away from their family if family is so important. And we were like those ...

All you can eat KFC 2/4/2019

Last Monday we heard rumors about a buffet, all you can eat KFC out in banning, so we went out and snooped around. IT IS TRUE! It was 10 bucks and they had it all out on buffet so it was a lot of fun, nomming on 10 pieces of chicken (it eventually started to taste like nothing but grease and fat, so we stopped). It was a good time, and I am good on KFC for a long time. I like Popeyes way better anyway. We had a really good week of getting in contact with people we haven't had contact with for quite a while, as well as people we were just trying to get in contact with. So it was really nice to sit down, chat with them, and see how they are doing. We were also able to have a family home evening with a family we are teaching and it was a lot of fun to do object lessons with them, and see the light go on so to speak as it helps them make the connection. In other news, on sunday, we stopped by a member and they were just getting home from dairy queen. They had cherry di...
