Hello everybody, 

This week has been crazy spiritual and crazy fun and while on a mission fun and spiritual just go so well together. The Area I am in is known as Tustin Meadows, and it is a more humble place than you would originally find. It also has a lot of Spanish and it makes me wish I would have paid attention more to my Spanish classes. We are constantly teaching people and now have 20 investigators! I am definitely not bragging here, because all of them came before I got here. We did, in this week alone, put six of them on date to be baptized and I am excited to see them progress towards that goal.
    
The last amazing thing that happened this week was a stake conference. We got to hear our mission president speak and we also got to hear Elder Karren of the 70 speak. They both are amazing spiritual giants, and I am super happy to know that those are some of the men that are help leading this church.

That is all I have for this week and I am super grateful for all the emails you send me, thank you!

Love,
Elder Wasden

Hey everyone,       So, like last time I will put together a day-to-day email, and trust me these last few days have been pretty eventful. Monday, 8/14/2017      Today was pretty eventful. It was my first P-day today and let's just say that laundry is now my least favorite activity ever. The story goes like this....We were going to do laundry, so we gather the cloths and head down to the washer and dryer which is in a separate building, and we realize that we need a special card to use the washers, so we call the other elders who had the apartment before us and they tell us where the special card is. We head back to the house get the card and head back to the washers and then we come to find out there is not enough money on it so we call another elder and ask to use their card. They are in another complex across the street so we walk over and get the card and then we come back and grab our clothes from our house and head to the washer only to find...

Hola Amigos, So this week has been a little easier in comfort as well as actually knowing who wants the missionaries over or not. So, one major change that my companion and I are currently trying to do is learn Spanish. I have run into a lot of Spanish speakers and I have picked a few things up, but I really want to be able to talk to them and have a decent conversation.  High school Spanish is definitely haunting me this week. We were able to visit a lot of people, but one difference that I have noticed between Birch Hills and North Hills is that North Hills had a few more youth and while being out here I have found that I really like being able to talk and connect with them. It has been a slow week and I honestly had a lot of study time and I can't believe how my testimony has grown from my studies.  All I need now is to be able to share my testimony with people, because what invites the spirit more to a conversation than a testimony of how the gospel of Jesus Chri...
