Week 2 In San Antonio

Howdy, funny thing I've not said that yet which is probably good. 

Well this has been another slow week for me it's great (not really). I've been here for 2 weeks and I haven't had a teaching appointment yet. In the 2 weeks the most work I've been doing is service for this old retirement home that's like a resort. It's super nice, the people are super kind, and it's really a good time to be there. 

I was able to go on exchanges with the Zone Leaders and they were teaching people. That was a good experience and I want to do it some more. 

Other than no teaching appointments this week hasn't been bad. Elder Pryde and I have been trying to find people but no one is ready to listen and that's ok. One day we will be able to get someone. For now we are going to get into the homes of the ward members and getting to know them better. Once we do that I know time will fly. Being in the members home yesterday on Sunday rejuvenated me and reminded me that I want to be on a mission. 

Biking is getting easier here and I'm not gonna lie I may have to come live in San Antonio for a bit. The only thing that sucks are the bugs, they are huge and I mean huge.  don't know what they are either. We were knocking on doors and we saw a big green bug (seen in the picture).
 
Also if missionaries knock on your door just take the Book of Mormon you'll make a missionaries day. 

A hui hou 

Here's the weather and this week it's supposed to hit 103 Thursday-Monday so that's nice

Aloha

Hola Mi Amigos  So apparently I'm instagram famous now so please I don't do autographs except for sizable donations to my missionary funds. For those who don't know what I'm talking about, last week I talked about meeting this guy named Elder Ulissses S. Soares. He's a leader of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- Day Saints and he posted a picture with me in it in one of his posts. Also, I can't actually take donations but if you absolutely feel like it, you have your own agency to choose so. In return a Book of Mormon will be sent to your door along with 2 young males or females with a message about happiness, joy, and aloha. Also, side note, I'm on facebook with that same picture. the name is Tyler Park. Other than being instafamous now, it's been a fun week. It's funny I'm in an area with a lot of Hispanics and because I'm brown they think I'm Hispanic and can speak Spanish so they are spitting Spanish to me ...

A Hui Hou Austin Ward

Good morning y'all  We got transfer news yesterday and I'm getting transferred up north more to Pflugerville. I'm still close to Austin just a little higher. I have mixed emotions about it, but I know it's where the Lord needs me and it's a good change. I will miss all the people and relationships that I've made here. It's sad to think about leaving so many people but I know it is not the end. I may never see any of these people again in this life but that's alright. (I'll probably be back at some point though).  Where am I going with this. To be honest I don't know I'm kind of just typing. But A hui hou means goodbye in Hawaii but hui means gather and hou means new. So, the literal meaning is until we meet again. And that is so true although we say goodbye to those we love, we will meet them again. There is a life after this. Jesus Christ is real. His atonement is real. And it was for us that we can say until we meet again.  ...

Good Morning Fam (or whatever time it is)  This was a week. As most of you know Corona virus sucks. And is growing everyday. Meaning new updates from the mission everyday. Wednesday night we were chilling trying social distancing. Thursday morning we are in Self-isolation. Fun stuff. So what does that mean? It means we are to do 95% of our missionary work online. The 5% we do not online is sacrament and baptisms but even those have guidelines. So what does that mean, time to get creative with online proselyting.  Then come to find out on Friday my comp has to go home because of corona virus. A lot has happened. But everything happens for a reason.  I think my message today is about being creative and finding success in the circumstances we are given. I was talking to a greenie (a new missionary) the other day and we discussed what success is. But this is a weird time many of us have to stay home meaning in work and school things are different. And success ...
