I met my trainer on my drive down to Rapid City, SD last week. We had a fun drive down and I got to know Elder Petersen and other missionaries that were driving down with us as well. After a few drop offs of other missionaries, we made it to our area, got our car and headed to our apartment where we met our two roommates who are really awesome people! My trainer was originally supposed to go to Samoa, so he studies the language each day for 2 hours. He is finally going to Samoa in August after spending 14 months in the North Dakota mission.
We live in a newer apartment complex and this is the view from the balcony.
We started proselyting the next day and it was an amazing experience. We found someone new, got yelled at by a basher, and got defended by a non-member all in a span of 5 minutes! We've been proselyting daily and it's been awesome. We met an older woman and she is super sweet and is interested in learning more about the gospel, but she is getting kicked out of her home and will be homeless soon. There are a lot of poorer people in our area and it is a struggle for them sometimes.
As a District, we went to Mt. Rushmore for the day. My companion is in white shirt and our district leader is to my right.
