Conferencia de Estaca

This week was stake conference. The conference was really powerful and spiritual. We had 2 people that came to the conference.  We also had zone conference this past week. We talked about our missions goals and what we are going to do to achieve them!

Last week someone asked us to help them get their cat out of the tree. The lady kept trying to ask if she could climb up the later and get it even though the ladder was only supported by the fence. We were able to convinced her to just leave the ladder there and wait for the cat to come down. 


A member has two dogs that he has trained to attack people like the cops do. This is the jacket that he uses to train them.

Los Cambios

Apparently the email from last week didn't send so I will include it with this one.

(last week) I'm getting transferred. I'm only moving a few miles but into a different ward and zone. I'm moving into another bike area! Honestly I love being on the bike. Today for pday we found a big area where there are mountain biking trails! The only problem with the trials was there are no mountains in Texas!! It was basically just a trail that wove in and out of the brush with lots of low trees and a couple places with BMX jumps and turns. This past week was also Laredo conference. We got up at 4:30 in the morning to get ready and head to Laredo and then got back at about 9.  The conference was really good. Elder Alliaud talked about how we can keep our selves focused on our purpose and accomplish that purpose.

(this week) It's been good getting used to the new area. This area has a lot of potential. It's way more Spanish than my last area which is a lot of fun. In the past week we have only talked to four people who are only English! The ward I am in is massive! We average 170 in sacrament meeting. Our area is really big as well especially for biking. Our area is out in the country so the only roads that connect to go anywhere are narrow, fast, and busy.. So we bike really fast so we get off them quick. 😂 There is also a lot of dogs. The dogs are the worst because they chase you especially as your biking. So we also bike fast to get away from the dogs. My companion is Elder Jenkins from Cache Valley.
