It's already been a whole month, so excited to be writing this week! Hope everyone is doing well. Want to apologize in advance for my slow response to emails, I always love to hear from everyone and always have time to read, but limited computer access and time to write back make it tough for me to respond, so sorry if it takes me a while to get to your email! This week was super busy, and we finished off the transfer. Elder Stastny and I will be staying here in Santa Clarita and Elder McDonough is headed to the other zone, so I'll be in a companionship of two for the next few weeks at least. Trio is a fun way to go, but the companionship will be great and we are looking forward to an exciting few weeks ahead! We had the opportunity to teach a lot of people this week, several members and investigators, as well as the chance to go to a Streetside burrito shop, which was incredible. For anybody who knows me well, I live for chipotle. However, I won't hesitate to say that this was infinitely better. They did the impossible at this place, the carne asada burrito changed my life. This week we taught David, one of our investigators, from inside our car. We saw him in a parking lot and he just hopped in so we taught him. He has some hilarious stories about his life in Mexico, so we always love talking to him. This week I really enjoyed 2nd Nephi 31:20 which says, "Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life." Press forward and have hope! Have a great week everyone! 1. David and Me 2. Cool view of SC at night 3. A lizard tail that kept squirming
