Hello Family!
It has been a great interesting week Surprise! Ha ha. Soo me and my companion were sitting having personal study and almost finished when we got a call from the Assistants...and they needed a spot filled in Murrietta and they needed a good missionary so they took Ole Elder Bird to Murrietta. Now i am in a tri-panionship with Elder Hannamen and elder Ioeulo both from Utah and Hawaii here in Oceanside. These missionaries are awesome! I love Oceanside 4th ward. Elder Hannamen and Elder Iouelo are so full of love it is amazing. And they are obedient. We are also right by the ocean(hence the name) ha ha. We have had some good times. We have got to have some powerful lessons. President Kendrick is also very cool. He is so humble and he lets us know he loves us. It is pretty cool. He is very laid back but in a safe way. When he sent me our weekly letter he just said two words-"thanks Elder, love you." He is pretty cool but it means alot!
We have half car half bike here in Oceanside. It would be fun if we had full bike. Its alll good! biking can be fun, We were able to have some lessons at the church this week and it is amazing to feel the spirit there. And to be able to have some Fun lessons at the same time. People need to be both spiritually and socially converted to the church. Friends overcome fear. Members are important. We might start meeting some Less Actives there also. Anyways, last night i learned more about the importance of remembrance. When we remember we feel the spirit. And how do we feel the spirit in remembrance? We re-live the experience in our minds. We also got a new Ward Mission Leader yesterday. He seems pretty cool. We also have a baptism lined up for Saturday. Her name is Mandy...Thompson. There are a ton of Thompsons out here. They are all pretty nice. So things have been going awesome here in Oceanside. We are having a good time, a little too much fun though . We can see the ocean from our apartment. working effectively is very important. These elders are also contacting beasts..yes I said it. And they work. So tell GG i said hi. As well as Grandma Harlow and Thompson. The work is great! The weather is great. The spiritual experiences are amazing and lessons..
Oh ya...and when you think you need new shoes....just shine them. ha ha.
Love,
Elder Thompson
