28-sep-2010 letter

Hey,

This week has been going great. The last couple of days have been really hot and I have been drenched. I love it though because then I come home and get to take a nice shower before I go to bed. I hope Matt's B-day package got there, I know it is know like two months late, but it would have gotten there on time the first try. Sounds like there was a lot of good busy fun this last week and I hope you keep enjoying yourselves.

Love you all,

Elder Rubert

P.S. Take notes at General Conference and see what the spirit makes stick out to you personally to answer your prayers.

Hola Familia,
This week we have been having some great success working with the less-active members. I love seeing the change that happens after they feel the spirit at church again. Today I was able to go to the temple as well! We were able to go to the L.A. Temple, and I'll send some pictures from it as well. We saw so many missionaries that had served in Cypress together when we were there too. We also have general conference coming up soon and we will be able to go and get a lot of people to come and here our latter-day prophets speak. I just got the package yesterday. Banana Bars are great, but looks like the frosting didn't quite make it inside of the Ziploc bag. Thanks for the pics of good old mother nature too. It's been a while since I've seen mountains or pine trees. Love you all and hope that you have an amazing week.
Ciao,
Elder Rubert

Hola Familia,
Like I said last week, I found out that this transfer I'm training an amazing missionary named Elder Barrea, from Cordoba, Argentina. We have had a blessed week and just had a baptism on Saturday of Jazmin. It was a great service and we hope to be able to see more success this transfer. Everything is going well here in the Cerritos 2nd ward. I was talking with the bishop on Sunday and I realized that at the end of this transfer that I'll have 7 1/2 months serving here in this ward. We just had our Ward Conference this Sunday and then afterward all of the young single adults went to a fireside that was given by Elder Scott. They all said that it was awesome. We have conference coming up in the next couple of weeks as well! And this is temple transfer as well so we will be able to go to the temple.
Love you all,
Elder Rubert
