Week 8 - Heat, fires, more service and temple

Hey All!
This is delayed a few days because we went to the temple today! The Redlands temple, and it was nice. It may be the last time I get to go for the next 22 months,  so it was nice. 

I hit two months last Monday! I honestly can't tell if time is going fast or slow. It's weird. That heat is personally the worst thing here. It was another super hot week, which was annoying...

We did MORE service this past week and a half. I got to go up to Idylwild and see the major damage of that first big fire. There have been a total of five fires since I came to Hemet! One was close enough that we could see our from our apartment (I couldn't get a good picture because it was night time, so you'll have to trust me ;p).

We have five people on date for baptism right now. The hardest thing it seems is getting them to church. But I've been praying a lot and I know that exact obedience brings blessings (some of the other elders and sisters here don't seem to understand that...).

I've surprised people at how much I can eat.  It is really funny because I'm like a foot and a half taller than my companion, too. 

Being here has shown me myself, haha. I've noticed my dreams lately have been all about choices and knowing what's good and bad. I feel I'm being shown the person I must be if want to be a servant of the Lord. I'm grateful for the trials I've been through that have made me so I am.

That's all I've got for today. Next p-day is Monday!

¡Nos Vemos!
