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...

MTC Highlights

July 22, 2017 Dear Mom, I'm pretty happy that I can finally email you. Not being able to for these first couple days kinda made it hard. The MTC is actually pretty cool and the food is not so bad either (your food is better mom), but I just want to get out into the field and start teaching out there. I've already seen a lot of people I know and a lot of people that look like someone I know, like my companion. July 22, 2017 Hey Everyone, I have missed you all and can't wait to hear from all of you. The MTC is actually pretty cool with its good food and the thousands of people you meet everyday. What really made my day was being able to play some sports for my exercise time which was one thing I was afraid I wast going to be able to do. In all honesty I did not realize how far out of my comfort zone I would be going when I came out on this mission. I love being out here, but part of me can't wait to see you all again in 726 days. If you get th...

Hey everyone, I am not sure where to begin, since so much has happened since my last email. I guess I'll start off with a day-to-day account of what I have done in the past few weeks.  Luckily I had written a lot of these drafts throughout the week. Tuesday 8/8/2017 To start off today, I had to wake up at 2:30 in the morning which wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. Elder Phelps and I had packed the day before so all we had to do that morning was take our stuff to the travel office. Here we loaded up and went to the airport. We spent an hour waiting for our plane and while we waited I spent the whole time trying to contact my family before I left, but everything I was trying to do wasn't working! I tried the payphone three times and that didn't work. Then I tried a few Skype calls, but the wi-fi was terrible at the airport and so that didn't work. I finally was able to talk for a few minutes when my companion allowed me to ...
