Sit back, relax, and LISTEN 3/11/2019


This week we had a really instructive zone conference, where they talked about as, ing questions then genuinely listening to what people have to say (they also said it was good marriage advice), so there you go! But is really neat to see how important it is in any situation to listen to what people are saying and not be thinking about how you can make a witty comeback or solve the problem. You learn all sorts of life skills on a mission.

Also last pday we played a game of wiffle ball, it was a good time, and so we got some pictures of the team!

We also had a really good stake conference where Elder

 Hallstrom shared a lot about conversion to Jesus Christ being our foundation, as well as how reverence is more than just being quiet, but how we live our life.

The weather thankfully did not go as forecasted, it was supposed to rain off and on all week, and it only really rained once. It also got up to 60 and sunny which was nice. I still haven't been able to take my jacket off though. 😊

I lost motivation to write anymore, sorry

-Elder Bearman

Shut up and listen
People like to talk anyway
Enjoy spring and stuff

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...
