I am now companions with Elder Hansen! Dana Point is sweet. We can see the ocean ALL THE TIME. It's so awesome! Our church is super sweet too. We have to drive on a road called Pacific Coast Highway and the beach and the ocean are like, 50 feet away. This area is SWEET. Elder Hansen is super cool too.
So, the investigators we have here are pretty cool too. There is this one named Pablo. He is being baptized this week or the next! He just had his interview yesterday, so he is all ready. His wife is not a member and he wants her to come see his baptism, so that's why it might be next week. But, hopefully this week!
Another investigator we have is Daniel. He is pretty cool. He is going to Mexico today for two weeks and we aren't going to be able to teach him... But, we had a sweet lesson with him on Thursday. We were going to watch the Restoration movie with him. We put it in his DVD player and turns out he didn't have a remote, so we couldn't change the language... He understood a little bit of English, and so for the whole movie I just translated it for him. It was sweet! He is super cool investigator.
We also have a family called la familia Berdeja. They are super close to baptism, they just need to get married. We are trying to get them to set a fecha para casarse. :)
So, this area is super sweet. It's perfect weather all the time (almost, except when it rains. Like today. And yesterday. And the day before that.) But, I love it here. We also live in a 4 man apartment. It's me and Elder Hansen with Elder Nelson (with whom I served in Vista for a transfer when Elder Owens was my companion) and Elder Farnsworth (with whom I served with in Esco). Elder Farnsworth, Elder Hansen and I all served in Esco at the same time, so that's pretty sweet. Also, I don't know if I told you this or not, but because of the age change and the huge surge of missionaries, they had to cut down our missions by a week... So, this transfer is only 5 weeks long and I am going to go home a week earlier than planned :( sad! :( Hopefully Elder Hansen stays for another transfer. He was here with Elder Chavez for two, so it's kind of iffy if he will stay. We can see the ocean all the time. It's awesome!
As for Maria, I don't know what has happened. The last lesson I had with her was Monday and she still didn't want to set a date... But, Elder Jensen and Elder Hall (his new companion) were going to have a sweet lesson with her. Hopefully all goes well. I don't know anything about George either, but I keep praying for the both of them! I most likely won't be able to go if they are baptized because the rule is that the stakes have to be touching in order to go... There are like, 2 stakes in between San Clemente and Escondido :(
Sounds like the weather no es bueno en Utah... I don't want to go back to the cold :( or ice :( or snow :( or the cold! :( it's so cold in Utah...
I did receive the package! Thank you! And tell Shanny thanks too :) I wasn't able to send out my package last week, but Elder Jensen should send it out this week or the next. IT's a SWEET package, so get excited!
In the mission, we received like... 17 o 18 new missionaries. No Spanish though :( it's the first transfer since I arrived since we haven't received Spanish missionaries! There was going to be one, but he never even showed up at the MTC... :( Next transfer there is like 4 o 5 Spanish coming in. Numbers are increasing lots!
Well, I think that's it for the week! I hope you have a wonderful week!
Love, Elder Hunt
P.S. I forgot my camera in San Marcos, so... No pictures of the ocean this week :( hopefully next week though! Or the next! :) OCEAN!
