Week 95 - Lots of Fun in Peñasquitos!

This past week we were involved in the PQ5K. An event originally made to celebrate Pioneer Day but then adapted to be a community event for Peñasquitos. In the event, you run from the stake center to another church building and then get to partake of a complementary breakfast of bacon, pancakes and fresh squeezed orange juice. Super fun! We helped out in the serving department. So I gave people bacon all morning, pretty much the BEST JOB EVER!

Later that day we went by our stake patriarch's house. We knocked and rang the the doorbell in the middle of a patriarchal blessing! Oops... but it worked out alright. We got to know them a little bit, they are kind, nice, cool people.

We have been spending a bit more time focusing on the youth in our wards and it has gone a long way! We have 4 friends of different youth that are pretty promising prospects for being taught by the missionaries.

To add on to that, we had the opportunity to witness the opening of Britain Hale's mission call. He is a graduating priest in PQ3 ward and super cool. I especially liked it because it made me think of my little brother Tim and when he opened his mission call. I am so excited! Missions are the best!

Love y'all!
