Week #16 - Welcome to La Crescenta

Hey guys,
Well this was a good week. I came to my new area on Tuesday morning. This whole area is a super big hill and we live towards the bottom of our area. My new companion is Elder White from Gilbert, Arizona. He is a good companion. This week we taught a few people and got introduced to ward members. We cover 2 wards and they both have many members. This is definitely the complete opposite of Pomona because of how nice the area is. We live with a member and also with 3 Korean elders. On Saturday we did exchanges and I went to Sunland with Elder Holm. That is a nice area but hilly. 

On Sunday we had great meetings. We had a stake priesthood meeting Sunday morning and the speaker talked about the importance of having questions and studying them out. We all will have questions and if we study them out then we can keep that line of revelation continuing with Heavenly Father. It was a very good talk. Also in sacrament the speaker talked about how the gospel is the same everywhere and how when you travel around the world you can find a ward or branch meeting on Sunday. It is awesome that we have faithful people all around the world and you can still feel the Spirit there too. And they are all similar and do the same things we all do in our church. He told an experience when they went to a little branch in Mexico and how the people were super humble and they felt the spirit strong there too. 

The members here are super great and take care of us great. We have some good people that we are teaching in this area. One of the guys we are teaching is a manager for a Disney store and he is a super nice guy. Have a great day and week everyone! 
Love, 
Elder Toller
