Feb. 16, 2016 Psst...Elder Miles, are we going to hear from you today??? (Have to tease him because it was 5pm our time when he emailed:)

Yeah, sorry I am late to emailing. Today we had a district activity in the morning so we did that then did all of our regular stuff throughout the day and now I'm here. Anyways this week was clearly a better week than the past couple. We were able to go out and work more and got to become more familiar with a lot of the members. Also, we were able to finally go to our Bishop's house and officially meet his family. They are super cool!

The temperature is gradually rising. Murrieta is known in the mission for it's hot summer. But .. if it is already in the high 80's in February, what does that mean the summer is like? It feels amazing biking in the heat, sweaty, with tight slacks, and a helmet, and a tight collar, sometimes in a suit... Mmmm, But hey! My legs will be personally described in Songs of Solomon 5:15 "His legs are as pillars of marble, set upon sockets of gold..." That is one positive way to look at it.

Well we are still only teaching Shannon at this point. Even though he has been super hard to catch because of work and his kid and a handful of other things. But he is coming to church every week and loves it.

My companion, Elder Burandt will be transferred this upcoming Tuesday. And it was also hinted by President Kendrick that I might be training again, so we will see how that works out. But exciting to think about. Things are going well here, and should pick up within the next week or so with the increase of work time so I will have more to email about.

But anyways I am out of time so I will talk to you next week.

Love,
Elder Miles
