Elder Evan's Epistles

This week was an excellent one, to start off with we discovered a very less active member! We were looking through are records and we saw that missionaries had stopped by someone but there was no background, so we stopped by and discovered that that person was a member! So we were able to talk with her and get to know her struggles a little bit more.  We also went looking for Samoans, apparently the trick is to look for ula necklaces in car windows, lots of shoes, and possibly mops or brooms on the roof. Who knew? So we traveled all over the stake looking for those kinda things so that was a different way of looking for people to talk to.

The thing that he focused on and wanted us to do was make sure everyone understands their relationship with God, that he loves them and cares for them and is their loving Father in Heaven.  I have also joined the dog club, I saw this sweet Doberman, so I went up to pet him and his owner walked up and was super nice and we gave him a free Bible and Book of Mormon.  We had lots of meetings this week with the ward mission leader from Rialto 2nd, Brother Togagaʻe, and we finished up presented it in ward council, then went to ward council where he was released, that was crazy. He was the Ward mission leader for 7 years.  We also have spent a lot of time these past couple of days going around and trying to visit all the members, over half are not active any more so we are going out and min...
