I had a special prompting this week to reach out to some of my favorite people! I love each and every one of you. I hope you truly know the significance of the impact you've had on my life. I deeply wish that this email can express the sincere gratitude for you all. Words can't do it justice but I hope this talk can give you a sense of my genuine love! I want to invite you to listen or read this talk along with this email! -My Personal Hall of Fame by Elder Thomas S. Monson- October 1974 I hope each and every one of you are having the most amazing day. I wanted to send out an extra special email this week. Over the course of the past 226 days of my life I've had the blessed opportunity to reflect on the moments in my life that have altered the course of my eternal journey. Although I find myself thinking more about the beloveded people that have changed that course. I have had some of the most unbelievable and undeniable experiences over the past 7 months that I know are sc...

Hiiiii everyone! Im so happy to be writing today! We had transfers last week! AND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 6 MONTHS (aka my whole mission) I MOVED AREAS! I got moved to the opposite side of Oaxaca. I’m now in the smallest but MOST BEAUTIFUL town called Santiago Tenango! It has a population of a about 600 or so but it feels like way less hahaha. And missionaries haven’t been here in over 30 years! The members are legitimately the most amazing people I’ve ever met! Our second day we ate 2 meals before our scheduled meal and 1 after. We eat homemade tortillas every day! Tenango is on the side of a mountain.  I love the work! It’s hard but it’s so amazing! I just want to share really fast that charity is so important! Pure love! Christlike love! That’s what I’ve learned so much here is how to give and how to love! I can’t put into words my grattitude for each and every person here! I love you and so does your Heavenly Family!  Until the next week! Finally getting to wear a sweater! ...

Holaaa! This week was awesome, but in a little different way! Its been super odd knowing that transfers are coming and most likely for the first time in 6 months, and the first time in my mission in fact, I'll be leaving my area. I feel like I should be going home of something like that. I feel as though Im leaving home for a second tume but change is OKAY! I wouldn't want to be toooooo comfortable. We had the amazing opportunity to do service almost every day this week. The people here are so humble and don't love to ask for help, but we painted a house and cleaned out another. THERE WAS MORE TRASH THAN I’VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! I wasn't sure that much could fit in a space but I was proved very wrong and had my mind blown! We assisted some church activities as well. I just feel sorry o beyond grateful to give just a little back to the people who willing gave to me for 6 months! I just want you all to know that the Lord has a plan for each of you! Follow with faith and...
