Sowing Seeds In San Pablo

  Kamusta po everyone! Yeah so sorry for not emailing last week kinda caught up with everything here at the mtc but im chilling now. Anyways, I'll try to catch you all up to speed. Home MTC Home mtc was a blessing. I loved getting to know my Companion and my district over zoom before in person because I am mad awkward. My Companion is Elder Grow, He is from Morgan Utah, he plays soccer and is such a dope dude. My district is so cool I will probably talk about them a lot in the following weeks. But home mtc was nice the first day was such a spiritual high it was amazing. That next week was cool.

So Satan took advantage those first 3 days.  But, then David asked Joel for a blessing and it changed everything. He started to excel and started to really enjoy it. Before he knew it time was up and we were on our way to Provo.  We went up to Lehi the night before so he could say his goodbye's to everyone. Then the next morning we went to Denny's for lunch with Shayne, Konnor, Gideon, Aria, Sophie, Josh and Kenna. Then we went to the Orem Temple to take some pictures.  After that we all piled ...
