What a Week

Woah woah woah. Wow! I love the Modesto Mission! Incredibly different, but we will make it the Mighty Modesto Mission soon enough. The Sacramento missionaries that they combined us with are...different. They were taught different as we were and so there are no rules in our mission. We are building up and being united. So much has happened in the past couple of weeks. First off, funny story. The other day, we ran out of gas and got stranded. We had to push the car off the road and our Bishop came to save us with a gas can haha We also had a baptism this past Saturday and it was awesome! My companion and I sang an a Capella duet and it brought the Spirit so strong. Everyone was in tears. AWESOME! We sang "Come Thou Font." Just beautiful. Our Mission President and his wife, President and Sister Palmer, were present. President Palmer even spoke at his baptism. I love them. They are so cool! I will put my new address at the bottom of the email. By the way, I no longer have to run. God loves me! Fourth of July was great by the way. We stayed at Sister Phillips home and played games and ate food....I crushed the Elders in Monopoly. Good times haha Oh, also, President Packer passed away. I am a little bit worried about all of the Apostles passing away. It will be interesting to see who will be picked to be next. I am posting a link about his life in remembrance. Take care and press forward.
