I'm getting transferred! I will be going to Park Meadows Ward in Castle Rock! I haven't served in Castle Rock yet, but am really excited. Castle Rock is the most affluent part of our mission and I hear a lot of good things about it! Park Meadows Ward is the northern-most area in the mission, it is really close to Denver. I am so excited because it is a biking area too! Anyways more to come on the area and my new companion next week.
This was an awesome week, I will be sad to leave Falcon! Elder McCombs is the only one of us staying, Elder Yesilonis is going down to Canon City 2nd ward, my first area! He will love it down there.
One highlight of this week was going over to Joe and Joan's house. We do service at a food pantry with them and they invited us over to go on a quick hike (they like in a real pretty area), eat dinner and play some pool. It was so fun and they are so cool! We talked a lot about religion and they asked a lot of questions about what we believe. We gave them a Book of Mormon and they will hopefully be able to start teaching them.
Also this week it was really cool because I really was inspired by President Nelson's talk to learn how to receive revelation. He asked, what knowledge do you lack? And then talked about how the Holy Ghost can help you to gain that knowledge. So I asked, what do I need to do differently to find some more people to teach in prayer and felt like I should look through the records of people previously taught (which I have done 2 time before). I found one that said that Jose had been taught about a year ago and I had never found that one before. So we went and stopped by that afternoon and he told us to come back the next day and we taught him an awesome lesson! That was a cool experience for me and definitely strengthened my testimony of prophets.
Anyways, it was a great week to end on for Falcon and I will miss it here! Hope everyone has a wonderful week and keeps the commandments!
