My new area is... unique... I cover 2 wards on bike. Little Lake & Echo Hills. Most of the Little Lake ward is in a rough part of town. Los Angeles jails dump off people on parole here in town so theres alot of murders,theft & drugs. I'm downtown Hemet.... lol I have a few investigators but not very many. I really miss Yucca Valley alot.  My area is HUGE! its way to much to cover on bike. We had a baptism yesterday. His name is Brad and he's totally awesome. He is only 16 years old and joined the church on his own.  The baptism was amazing.  The young women of the Echo Hills ward sang (A Childs Prayer) for Brad and his baptism. it was a very special thing. Theres alot of good stuff starting to happen here.  Its very diferent from Yucca Valley. I really miss everyone up there. Yesterday I went to a BBQ with a family in the E Hills ward over in Park Hill  It was very nice.  I'm still trying to get used to everything here in Hemet. I got my hair cut today so I am lookin fresh! I have the most awesome campanion ever! His name is Elder Tyau hes from Honolulu, Hawaii.  We get along great. He's totally awesome. I like all the elders I am living with they are really cool. Elder Snow is from Olympia Washington and Elder McBride is from New Jersey. There doesnt seem to be to many people from Utah In my mission.  After I email we are going to Wal Mart and then we are going over to Bishop Jorgenson's house to play tennis.  I need to get used to covering two wards. Its overwhelming with all the stuff going on. You do not get very much done because all we do is ride from appointment to appointment and it taks a good 30 mins of biking to get to one persons house and then another 40mins of biking to get to another.

 

Love,

Hey mom. this past week has been a little rough saying good bye to all of my wonderful friends here.
I feel like a made a HUGE difference here!!!  I'm get transferred to Hemet on bike and ill cover 2 wards.... im still in Yucca Valley for another hour and then I'll leave.  The Boutwells are going drive me. I'm glad I was not on bike for the summer. Now the weather is a bit cooler it will be nice. My companion I'm getting is from Hawaii.  I'm taking Elder Websters spot!  I was in the MTC with him.  Yesterday was good. Did you watch conference? I enjoyed most of it.  I'm sure going to miss alot of people here. I have such a love for everyone up here its going to be hard to drive down those canyons for the last time and leave.  I feel so blessed for all of the wonderful blessings that I receive each day.  Everyday a miracle happens. Its incredible! I love being able to make all of these wonderful new friends and to help guide them towards the Savior and his true church once again restored! I got a few wonderful parting gifts from David, Joyce, the Fairbanks and George! I have a feeling of peace now and I know that moving onto other things will help me learn and grow. This morning I woke up at 6 with Elder Glascow and we went to Joshua Tree National Park one last time and had a really fun hike. I think where im at is one of the most beautiful places in the world! I have to go now sadly sorry this email is short. I love you all
