I
finally was able to come back to the Camarillo area after being in
Newbury Park for 6 days. I missed the perfect weather that Camarillo has
to offer. It was great to be back to the familiar faces of my room
mates and the ward members.
My companions are
great. Elder Bradley is coming along well. He just finished up training
this week. He's known as the chef of our apartment. He can cook and eat
just about anything. I haven't seen anyone eat as much as him since my
brother Sanjeev. Elder Snyder is doing great. I feel like this past week
we were all able to get along well with on another and to enjoy our
last week together.
I was told by my bishop
that I wouldn't be able to serve out of the country because I didn't
complete all 4 years of seminary. But the fact that I have my visa and
my travel plans are already figured out just proves to me that our
heavenly father has a sense of humor and that he knows exactly where we
need to be in order to teach others about the restored gospel. I've
loved being in California this past 4 months and I plan on visiting in 2
years. I know that India will be a very different experience for me and
humbling as well. Those who know me know that I could use a little
humbling in my life. I'm honestly so scared and so nervous for what
awaits me in India. But I know my Heavenly Father has a plan for me and
that if I do what I'm supposed to that I'll be blessed for doing so.
For
service this past week we helped an investigator take pictures of some
old medical equipment that he is trying to sell online.
