Elder Myers April 26, 2010

Hello! I dont have time to write a long email but I had to say how much I love everyone!
The area is slowly but surely starting to come together as we gain trust and relationships with everyone. It is just more slow paced but we are hopeful for two baptisms while I am here (we think that Elder Bigler will leave first...) One is Alan- his wife is the member and he has been going to church actively for three years now... and the other is the same situation minus the church part because Brother Villamil (well not officially bro...) cant get work off- he works for California State Parks downtown LA and he lives way up Topanga canyon on a state park- his house is basically on a camp ground..! We cant believe its just thirty minutes from smoggy downtown LA!
I am really working on being spiritually powerful and gaining a stronger testimony especially of prayer. I am focusing on one or two goals at a time and trying my best!
ps as the subject says- it has been "horrible" weather 65 and overcast with one day of small rain... southern californians are officially spoiled rotten when it comes to weather!
pps sarah i am sending a letter out to you tomorrow
michael and mallory are next!
