Lots of Nothing

What's up everyone, 

Another week gone by and not too much to tell. Basically the whole quarantine life sucks but you gotta look at what we can do rather than what we can't do. Missionary work in the states is a lot different than in Mexico haha.

I'll start with the fun stuff. This last p day we went golfing and to the batting cages! I wouldn't say I'm the best golfer but I did better than the other elders so that made me happy. After that we went to the batting cage and it felt good to take some hacks! There were some 40 year old dudes next to us living in their glory days and one tried to give me advice on my swing, so naturally I went and showed him up on the fastest machine. Homie didn't say a word after that haha. 

Tuesday we had a district council and when we shared goals they all laughed when I said we are gonna find 10 people. My thought was "well in Mexico we can find 10 a day, it'll be easy to find 10 in one week." Well then reality hit and every person we called didn't answer and that 10 went to a fat 0 haha guess the goal will be different this week!

Now for the rest of the week... not too much to say. We did a few service projects and it was nice to get out of the house and finally meet people! It's fun to do zoom calls but talking in person is so much better. The members are super good when it comes to giving us people to teach, only problem is we can't go to their house and when we call on the phone they never answer. We are focusing on getting 2 kids that just graduated. One girl has said she will be baptized but needs to turn 18 first and the other boy has shown interest and has been to church. Good thing is that he is a baseball player so I am anxious to meet him! Now we just pray we can get in contact with them.

Both of those referrals came from the YW president and she is super dope! We did a service project for her and when she noticed I was wearing my Cubs stuff she said "my boy got to shave one of the players heads for the Respect Bald fundraiser they do". Kinda got a little jealous not gonna lie! She showed me the pic and it was Ian Happ so I thought it was pretty cool. Only problem is her boy still doesn't know who the Cubs are... kinda sad haha. 

That's the best I can do for this week, don't expect too much from my emails as long as quarantine lasts.

Love you all!
