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,

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,

Hey,
This was an amazing last week of the transfer. I found out that I'm still staying in the Cerritos 2nd ward and that I'm going to be training again! We have had lots of success and blessings from the Lord and this week we should be able to see Jazmin enter the waters of baptism as well. Other than that nothing else has changed that much, just working, working, working. There's an Elder Spencer here in the mission that says hi to the Manship family.
Love you all,

Hello,
Back to school, huh?! I can definitely wait for that one. This last week has been great. We had a half mission conference where President Bubert went over one more time all of those trainings that we just received and clarified a few of the points there as well. Not much to report, time just flew by so quick this last week that I feel like I just blinked. It's awesome that everyone was able to go down to see the wedding, and I'm stoked to hear that you're planning on using Preach My Gospel in FHE.
Love you,
Elder Rubert

Hey,
This week has been so awesome. We are on our last week of the training so we are seeing a huge difference in our teaching than before and seeing the Lord start to pour out His blessings upon us for our obedience. How is everything going for you all? I found out the other day that after years of making fun of the Georgian accent when I hear people do it now, I just start twangin' with 'em. Elder Soto told me and I didn't believe him at first, but wow! Well we've been having a great time and working hard this last week trying to find some new people to teach. We had such an amazing Family Home Evening with the Rodriguez and Hurtado families. They are so awesome. We have been able to feel the spirit really strong and give us a little extra fire for the week. I didn't really realize how much I was missing out on by not having FHE before. I love you all and hope that you all keep being awesome!
Ciao,
Elder Rubert
P.S. Elder Rubert could use some fun pics of what you've been doin'!
