The weather is finally cooling down and it's actually quite nice now! My new companion is from riverside County in California, his name is Bulgarian though so that's cool. He's a great guy and we work well together. Some sweet things happened this week. One, we walked right into the middle of a drug deal on Tuesday on the street and the people all thought we were the po po so they all got way scared. When we told them to have a nice day they just went right back to what they were doing. It was funny 😅. The work has been pretty sweet lately still working with members to find referrals so that's fun we came up with a ward mission plan for the YSA ward and we are gonna have the ward council try it out first. We are giving everyone in the ward 3 pass along cards to hand out just to get more comfortable doing scary things like that. Sooo then we are going to ask them to follow up with the people they gave it to and then we will follow up with them. We recently came up with a plan to find people through FHE with the YSA ward as well. It's hard to find YSA here! Everyone is so busy. But we went to this way cool spot called the Brooklyn place and it over looks the Hudson and it's amazing. I'll take pics next p-day. Hmm soccer is way fun and my legs are still sore from Saturday. Need my cleats but I got to call dad today because my wallet fell out of my bag on the street today and I had to cancel all my cards and stuff. I lost all my money so that sucks. We did a photo scavenger hunt today and that's why I haven't emailed until now. It was pretty fun. We are meeting with an investigator named Ashley and she and her family came to church. She is 19 with a three year old, and her boyfriend is a less active member. They came to church and they both felt the spirit so strong! She was crying and everything. It was perfect because the speakers were on family and how the gospel blesses them immeasurably. Then the organist played a song and I felt the spirit so strongly. I cry seriously every week at sacrament meeting. I love how music brings the spirit so strongly. I think that's all for this week! Sorry it's short! I love you all!
