Well this p day is going to be busy we need to take the truck into the dealer to do maintenance on it so we need to be in Santa Fe at  10:30, fun right. So yea today will be busy also I have a story for you today. We did a church  tour and the first words out of their mouth was this place is beautiful as we were walking up (something to note there is a lot of churches in Las Vegas and is has a lot of devoted Catholics and there is a lot of big buildings that show how small our church really is). When we walked in Anjelina said there is "the presence of god in this church" and just kept saying that it was beautiful and trying to describe the spirit. It was the coolest thing that has happened this week till yesterday we walked up to a man who was working on a little wall and we offered to help. He asked spiritually or with the work? We said both and he laughed and we ended up giving a Book of Mormon to him. And we got his address and we'll be seeing him Tuesday and helping him work and Thursday we will be teaching him. He also has 9 siblings in town and he ends up helping them with work around the house a lot so we think we might see a way in to have 9 new families. That's been my week with only one good picture its a rat on my arm :)

This week has flown by and I am not sure what happened. We helped move some people into the dorms at the college. We dig a lot of trenches and I've been doing a lot of tree work and just other landscaping work so my boots are very helpful. School will be starting here soon too. It is odd here how the schools are. Lots of changes are happening with reorganization of the school district so lots of things are changing and its a mess. It has been raining a lot here and its actually colder here then where you are. It's been in the 60's. Other than that not much has happened. We did try several new ways to find people like bike tracking and hanging around the plaza. So that's what happened this week, been kinda slow. We did get another hail storm and a tornado warning. We found out about the warning after wards but all it well.

August 7, 2017

I'm staying in Las Vegas. Just like last timer every other companionship was hit but mine si I'll br here for another 6 weeks. Not much has happened this week. There was a motorcycle rally in town but we stayed away from that. We did a lot of service this week. Our branch mission leader got back in town  so we went to an old fort last week for p-day. Fort Union is what it is called and not much is left of it just the foundation and some walls. I've met most of the branch but I should get to meet the rest this transfer because school starts in 3ish weeks. Other than that not much has happened but we got hit with more hail yesterday-_-.

We did do a lot of service this week more than most. We email in the family history room at the church. The library is not in a good place. We use service to try and get in the door and usually they listen to us after they get to know that we are not robots and are real people, Zone conference was really good.
