I'm
slowly started to understand the area more and more. This past week was
all sun and no rain. We are started to work with the members on their
family mission plans. A lot of our member want to do missionary work,
they just need a little bit of guidance for finding were to start. When
we left the Temple we were able to drive on Highway 1 and it was
probably the best drive I've ever been on. So many beautiful beaches,
houses, and stores.
My companion is teaching
me a lot. He's read a lot of talks and finds ways to tie those into
lessons or just into our studies. I believe that no matter who my
companion is that there is always something to learn.
This
past Wednesday I had the opportunity to go to the LA Temple and is was
HUGE! Biggest temple in the world. Being able to go through it was an
amazing experience. Angel Moroni is holding the trumpet in his right
hand and the golden plates in his left. I've never seen any other temple
have him carrying the gold plates.
Temples are so beautiful inside and
out. It is the house of the Lord. I know that one day I'll go there to
be married and sealed to my eternal companion. I know that families can
be together forever. The Billings family was kind enough to take us
missionaries. It was about an hour and 15 minute drive with a little bit
of traffic at the end.
For service this week we helped the Hernandez family move some stuff around in their backyard.
