Hey mom ! It's been a good week here in Quincy as always but this week we did a ton of driving.
We went on two exchanges and then went to Reno for interviews but this week went by really fast !
We started out the week by going on a sweet hike up to Gold Lake which over looks a lot of California
and then went and played some more disc golf. Then on Tuesday we went on exchanges with the
Zone leaders from Reno and I had a lot of fun with Elder Jensen we talked to a lot of people and
did some service but there was one lady who we contacted into and started talking with. She's
like yeah I've met with missionaries from the Mormon church and the Jehovah's witness church and
I asked her "how did you feel with the LDS missionaries vs the JWS?" and she started crying and I
thought I offended her or something but then she said "the love that the lds missionaries had for
her was an amazing feeling and that she could tell a huge difference" and I told that that is Christ's
love because we are representatives of him and that the message we share is true and told her
she could find out for herself if she would read the Book of Mormon and pray about it. Then
she said she won't read the Book of Mormon and so we left but it's hard when the people can feel
the spirit so strong and still won't accept our message. The people here in Quincy know that the
Mormon church is true but they don't want to change because they feel like it's too hard for them.
but it's OK because the work goes on ! and then we went to Reno for interviews and we went to the Olive
Garden for lunch because I haven't been to a nice restaurant in a while and it was good. It's weird
going back to Reno because there's so many people. Then we went on exchanges on Friday
and Saturday and did a bunch of service and it was fun. Anyways thanks for all you do mom and
have a great week ! love you mom
