Time to dust off the Cob Webs , Elder Ipsen is finally on his Bike !!!
After 7 months Elder Ipsen is Transfered to.....Lemon Grove
Part of May 18th E-mail
hello family! how is everything going!? I'm emailing you from lemon grove! which is the ghetto of ghetto's in san diego. lol jk its not super ghetto but it is pretty ghetto. Theres this intersection in our area that is called the "four corners". and its called that because that is the area where 4 gangs border each other so theres a lot of battling that goes on there. just wanted to tell you that to put you at ease.... :) lol its really not that bad though.
This week has probably been one of the longest weeks so far. It was kind of tough cause me and elder callejas(who just got out of the mtc) pretty much got thrown into a new area without a car and not knowing anything. But things have definitely been picking up. We're starting to learn the area and learn how to use the trolley ha. We started in this area with just 3 investigators last week. We're up to 8 now. Mainly from referalls from the gladys Knight thingy. so things are going good! Just pretty stressful at times!
Um,i had to cancel the appt with the doctor though.... we didn't have time and didn't have a car...lol so im gonna have to reschedule it. sorry!
k to answer your questions... im like 20-30 minutes from clairemont. and its funny right now...i have guy sitting next to me who is giving me change, offering to give me his glasses and asking me if i need drugs.... hmm..... no joke either.
im to the east and to the south of clairemont.
my new companion elder callejas is originally from el salvador but he lives in utah now. He's a good guy, really happy and he has a strong testimony. white wash means you and a companion go into an area that neither of you had gone to before. so you both have to learn it together.
yeah like i said earlier im on bike and trolley. . lol, its fun though it makes you feel more like a real missionary being out in the world all day rather than being in a car. yeah im still district leader! this week we get to go coach other missionaries in other zones for our zone conference.the address for sending stuff will stay the same my whole mission :) and p-days are still weekly and on tuesdays.
The weather here is good! and the stress level is doing better :) it was just hard being thrown into an area with a greeny that has no idea what he's doing and with no car and pretty much no investigators, and then finding out that im still district leader. But...... without challenges and trials i wouldnt be able to grow! and im having more fun than ive had on my misison! haha its fun the work is good.
I do know the elders in my new appt. One of them was in the mtc with me and the other one ive seen around quite a bit.
But yeah, that was a lot of stuff about me..... what is going on with all of you guys??? i want to know! Thank you all for everything! love you guys!!!
