What a great day to be a teenager 4/29/2019


Also it will be my last, there goes any excuse I have of being a punk.

But this week was crazy awesome. We went on exchanges twice, I got to go back to Redlands and had a really good time with Elder Shelton there. He came out with me, but we haven't served around each other, so it was nice to see how the mission has treated him so far. I also got to go out to Banning, which is a tiny town that is kinda the last place before you hit the desert. I was with a younger missionary, Elder Cox and so it was fun to be able to see him in action. He actually went to SVU for a year so he knows the east coast! Also they had a bread maker and so we had homemade bread for breakfast. 

We were able to start meeting with a couple, we just wandered up to then while they were in their garage and we asked them what question would they ask God? And then we went off on an awesome discussion as to what our purpose in life is, why bad things have to happen, and how we can find truth. We answered those questions with the Book of Mormon. They are also going to bake me a cake for my birthday. 

We also mobbed around met this really cool lady who recently lost her husband. So we have been able to talk to her quite a bit about eternal families, which she is really excited about. We met her because a member recently moved in next door to her.

It was a different week
We met lots of new people

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

Image
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...
