Hey everyone! I just want you all to know that I love you and miss you so much! Thank you for all your support and I'm especially grateful for all the birthday wishes from a couple weeks back! It really has meant a lot! Anyways, here's a summary of the past few weeks.

The members here in Rocklin are so amazing and they seriously helped so much in making my birthday just an amazing day! We also met this awesome lady named Becca who was interested in us coming back but not for another month until her new puppy is done with its training! The following day was both the ward Trunk-R-Treats and they were so successful in getting a ton of non members there! And then the day after that we were in a Trio with Elder Comans (One of our Zone Leaders) and we helped out Gerardo with a fundraiser event for his Humanitarian Project he leads so that was so much fun and we were able to meet so many awesome people and introduce them to the church!

Halloween we had to be in early so we stayed in and watched some classic church movies such as Johnny Lingo and The Phone Call. If you haven't seen either of those movies, they are definitely recommend!

Last Wednesday we had interviews with President Ward and it was just what was needed. I seriously love President Ward so much and I really couldn't have asked for a better mission President! He really just wants us as missionaries to be the very best we can and to give the Lord our best and have all we do focused on his work! Thursday we had exchanges and I went with our District Leader, Elder Schreiner! We had such a great time and we were blessed to find 2 new people to teach in our area! One of them is named Alex Schneider so it was a pretty interested conversation between the 3 of us who all have similar last names😂 That was also the day we learned about the devastating fire up in Paradise which really hurt Elder Schreiner because he served up there for 3 transfers! Please please please pray for all those who lost everything in the fire, they really need the help!

This weekend it was Rocklin's Stake Conference and it was so great! All the speakers did such a fabulous job and really brought the Spirit to all who had the opportunity to listen!

So that's basically it folks! I love you all and I really will try my best to be better at emailing! I'd love to be able to receive a personal email from y'all so please if you get the chance, it would mean so much! And I promise I'll do my best to reply!😂 Love y'all have a great rest of your week and tune in next week to learn more!
