up and out

Well we are having a busy week this week. Monday we attended the funeral of our Stake President Hadfield who died unexpectedly last week. He was only 57 years old. He was a really great man, and focused his life on serving the Lord. It was a really good service, and he will be missed. Then on Tuesday we spent the day doing service for Bro and Sis Perez. It is our favorite place to do service. We helped him paint and assemble a part of his shed. Today, P-day, we are going to go bowling with some of our zone. Then tomorrow we have a zone meeting of some kind, and we also need to begin packing. On Friday we will be moving to our new apartments that are cheaper but close by. Sandra's Baptism is final, and set for the 28th. Our ward mission leader wanted to change it because he is out of town. Sandra is really excited and so is Angelica. Our other investigator Jenn let us know that she is ready and she will have a date tonight hopefully. So things are good and busy. I could not be happier doing anything else. I love my mission, and I love the people here. I cant imagine my life with out them. Thanks for all your prayers. I love you.

balloons and baptisms





Well life is still great here in the armpit of California. Who would have thought? Today we are having a BBQ as a zone, and will be playing water balloon volleyball. So last night we filled up about 300 water balloons. It was an intense time, filled with laughter and much wetness. Yesterday we met with Sandra and she scared us at first. She said she didnt want to be baptized on the 19th. ahh. Then she said that she had something going on, but on the 26th she for sure wants to be. phew. So here date is moved back a week. Which is fine with me! As long as she is still committed. We also committed Jenn to be baptized and she accepted. They just need to set a wedding date first. It has been kinda cold and overcast here, but I am going to enjoy it while it lasts because I know the fearsome heat that is ahead. How is everyone at home doing? Aunts and Uncles? Cousins? Grandparents? All still up and going? I cant believe that soon it will be May. Time flies. I love you all, and I hope you are doing so well.

love Sister Cain.

wowzers

So, too bad for all of you that you arent a missionary. We had such a great week. Hence the title...'WOWZERS'. We have 3 new investigators that we started teaching. All of which seem like ligit(sp) investigators. One of them is named Jenn, she is dating a returned missionary. With no pressure from him she started reading the BOM and coming to church. She asked to meet with us. LAst night we taught her the restoration. The spirit was off the wall. so great. Then another investigator we found doing 3 doors down. 3 doors down is this new thing that President wants us to do. If we have an appointment that bails then we knock 3 doors in each direction. Its really cool, and I know that it works. Especially now. His name is Zenen and he just had back surgery. We helped him do some digging yesterday. IT was hard and my back is killing me now, but he said we could come back and talk about the BOM more and he wants us to come for dinner. Terry is doing well. She feels like her prayers are finally being answered and she is coming to church. Also our crazy one, Leigh, is actually starting to understand things. so that is great. And of course, Sandra and Angelica are still on for the 19th. They are both awesome. See what I mean? Too bad you arent a missionary. All these wonderful people that I am so blessed have come into my life. I LOVE IT! I do miss you all, and even though the work is great, doesnt mean I dont want mail. please.

I love you.kisses and hugs.
