A Surprise (not really) Visit- Week 22 (8/5/19)

Well this week was simultaneously amazing and very boring Haha!
Unfortunately this email will have to be short, but my dad came and visited me last Tuesday! I got permission from my mission president to have him come down for one day. We spent it out having lessons and teaching! It was a ton of fun and I was super happy to be able to see him again.
(Hopefully you learned something Dad Haha amo)
The talk in this past conference, Exercising our Spiritual Muscles, was a big influence in helping me prepare and plan for the visit.
Maybe my mom can send out some pictures if anyone wants to see them?

I read a book that chloe sent me called The Great Apostasy by Elder Talmage, and it was sooooo good as well.
Highly recommend reading it if you're interested in what happened to the church after Jesus Christ and the Apostles died.

I also got kinda sick this week (rip) but I went out and still worked!
It wasn't too bad but um I've lost my faith in the medical systems down here.... when I went to the doctor they were like "oh wow your ears and throat are draining that's good" and when I was like ummm so what is it the doctor just prescribed me antibiotics and said "awesome, you're good now" and left so....
That's cool?

But thanks to everyone who's sent me something or emailed me or anything, I love all of you!
I wish you all the best of luck,
Elder Reginato

How a Baptismal Interview changed into a 3 Day Exchange: A short novel- Week 48 (2/10/2020)

Sinton Sunset Hi everyone! This week was CRAZY! Tuesday. We had transfers! I'm staying (woot) with Elder De Leon here in Sinton! That day our car battery also died in the morning so we had to go down to Corpus Christi to get a new battery. It took a ton of time but it was pretty funny. We ended the night with the family home evening we always have, and we decided to have everyone watch Joseph Smith, the Prophet of the Restoration. It's an awesome movie! I think it's interesting when people say we "worship" Joseph Smith. Do they "worship" Saint Paul? Saint Peter? No, no one worships a prophet. Just kidding some people do but it's not actually our religion lol, which some people really dont seem to understand. Wednesday. Overall, not bad. We were able to see some of the Presidential Impeachment with an investigator, as well as go out to dinner with another. We taught some lessons, some people, and we ended up having dinner with someone t...

Haircuts are cool except they're not- Week 12 (5/27/19)

I'm writing this right after I've gotten a haircut, and it feels like there are bugs all over me (because of the hairs) and it's making me mistype so much haha! I hope it's just hair!! :))))))) (Sooooo sick of the bugs here haha) But hello everyone! I'll keep this one short, this week something happened to my email and it wont show me the emails I got past a certain time this week, so I'll have to respond to everyone personally next week, sorry!!! But yes what to say, We set two new baptismal dates this week, so hopefully the two people (Junior and Ana) will actually keep their commitments and wont fizzle out!!! We're praying for them, and they're both really really cool people. They've been really interested in the things we've been teaching, which is always nice. I'm always happy when I can teach a lesson, I just love the way it makes sense to people who have felt lost in their religion or who just have questions that they cant fin...

"What did you have for dinner? You better not say salad. I hate that word. If you say it, I will ignore you."- Week 45 (1/13/2020)

Lehi’s Dream, by Steven Lloyd Neal Hi all! Short email this week. I had my first family home evening up here in Sinton! We had like triple the attendance of our usual sacrament meetings which blew my mind. We also played family feud with a member family after we had dinner, that was a blast. Am I intelligent? I like to think so. But when the question is, "name a precious gem or stone." and i blurt out, "Garnet." even I must doubt my own ability at least a little bit. We set ANOTHER BD this week, although we had to move the one from last week back. :( The good news is that we should have 2 baptisms this Saturday. Also, we finally committed one of the boys here to serve! We got him to set a date, text the bishop, and everything. It felt really nice. Not too much else. We had some funny moments, some tiring ones, everything in between! I've decided to read the entire book of Mormon at least once every month this year. We'll see how I do. So f...
