Helping out the piano teacher to Kanye West, Mariah Carey and Twenty One Pilots

Everything has been okay haha This week was pretty unproductive to say the least. My TRAINER thought it would be okay if we didn't even go proselyting this week so we didn't. He is pretty casual with being a missionary. It bothers me a ton but I just hope I can last another week until I can make it to transfer day. 

So quick, cool story. This week we went out of our area to help a member in a different area, Westlake Village. Where literally everyone there is kinda rich haha. Anyway this member is really cool, she had us do service for here and she told us a little about herself. She was Kanye West's piano teacher when he was taking piano lessons, she has also worked with other celebrities like Mariah Carey  and a few bands like Twenty One Pilots. She said that she is throwing a Halloween party on October 1st and she said that it is a possibility that celebrities might show up haha but she invited us missionaries to the party! So thats pretty cool huh? 

I went on exchanges this week with the zone leaders and I went with Elder Allison who is from Rexburg. He is actually cousins with someone I knew from High School so that is kinda cool too! Anyway when I was with him it was the only time that I got to actually do missionary work which felt good because we got to talk to a lot of people and we found a few potential investigators.

So this week hasn't been the most productive but it definitely has been interesting! I still enjoy being out here no matter how my companion acts. Love you all!
