It's Getting Better All the Time

Hey Minions.

Sorry it's been 2 weeks. I'm a bum. Please forgive me.

So here is a little update!

First, we still have the same two investigators, Alex and Alena. Both are pretty solid and hopefully be baptized soon. Alex is probably going to be baptized in April and right now Alena in June. Let's hope that the best happens.

On Thursday I was able to go on exchanges into the Terra Vista ward with my district leader, Elder Browning. He and I were in the same district when I was in Phelan, so I've been on exchanges with him before. What was really cool is we met with this less-active guy who I've actually met before. I helped him move his family into a house in Phelan, so it was pretty cool seeing him because we'd met before.

Saturday was kind of a cool day. These guys in our ward who are twins and almost 18 took us to a sushi place. I found out that I don't really like sushi. Plus I've been feeling kind sick ever since we ate there. I'm not sure if there's a connection, but it might be.

After the sushi we went to a Rugby game, which was approved by our Zone Leaders. Quite a few people in our ward play on the team and so we went to this little place called Colton and watched them play. Rugby is a pretty sweet sport. I don't understand a lot of it, but I liked to watch it, nonetheless.

Yesterday was pretty awesome as well. There was this Fireside for the Rancho Cucamonga and Fontana Tongan Wards. The guy name Nela Otuafi spoke. He's a song writer and composer. He wrote this song called "How Can I Be?" You should check it out. Anyway, it was one of the coolest Firesides I've ever been to. He was having all of us sing and he was just really spiritual and made it really great for the youth. I'm glad that I could go to that. (Check out the following post if you want to hear the song)

Something else that was neat about yesterday is that I ate dinner with a family! That brings my dinners total to 2. There were these three boys at the house ages 9, 10 and 11. They were super funny and they were just fascinated by me and my companion. It was cool to be around people for a little while and just talk with them.

I love you guys! Keep being the cool people I know you are. 

Now Go, and Be Golden,

Elder R. Sage Taylor
