Week 44

Monday 8/29/2016 

In the morning the zone went on a hike in Silverado canyon. So we went to the top of the canyon with a small group Elders (Sparacino, Rubio, Hanks and Hugie). We longboard down the canyon road. It was pretty scary to be going that fast on a wooden board. Elder Rubio came down a hill unable to slow down and ended in brush at the foot of a tree. We grabbed In n out for lunch probably not he best decision. Then we went mountainboarding. It was fun more control with a mountainboard. We played some Munchkin then met the A10 sister at the church. People started to come in then played some volleyball in the gym. We had picked up dinner from the Johnson's home. After dinner we went and had a lesson with Daniel. We taught him the Restoration. He has had a lot of exposure to the church which is great. We stopped by Walmart at the end of the night.

In the morning we had a meeting with brother Larsen about the ward mission. He made us breakfast and we were able to get him up to date. We went over to brother Remington's house to do some service for him. We helped get some stuff loaded to take to the dump and other things. We got to the dump to find out they can't take the things that we had in the truck. The dump that would be able to take the stuff was way out of the mission. He took us to lunch at Mendocino farms pretty good. We had a lesson with Nyle we read with him. We are hoping to get Nyle coming to church. We went back and had dinner.
