Transfer Week Ahead

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 he will guide you!

I love you all!!!!! So does Jesus! And your Heavenly Father!

SERVICE IS THE KEY

I have a lot of scrambled thoughts this week but I hope I can share them all without writing a whole darn novel. It was such an amazing week! So hard but so good. Always have to start with a funny story... duhhh. We went over to an investegators house to teach a lesson. Hes super old and speaks a native dialec called Zapoteco. He speaks spanish just with a really strong accent. Anyways, we get his house and he offers us some water. We didnt see where he got it from so we always have to ask so we dont get sick. He says its from the rain the other day so we were already a little skeptical, and then I look down at the water and its legit BROWN and its got random chunks floating in it. My comp is talking to him about it and this investigator starts going off becuase we're not drinking the water, he starts quoting scriptures about how everything from God is good yada yada yada. Well then my comp looks at me and goes "Should we drink it?" I WAS LIKE HECK NO. The investigator ...

Loving The Work And Potatoes

Where is the time going?! The weeks are flying by. Im really not sure what exactly to write about. I’ll do my best to give you guys something. We've all heard the saying "you got a face only your mother could love" I think my emails are "emails only a mother could read". If you feel that way feel free to scroll down to the pictures . I gave my very first talk this week in church! With nothing prepared I got up and spoke over a pulpit with no microphone and somewhere along the way mustered up the ability to say "I love my family so much and miss them. Most of all I miss my potatoes". I meanttt to say parents but hey...I guess I miss potatoes too. I don't have any more funny stories but it really was an awesome week. I feel like I’m getting into the flow of being a missionary finally and I have officially completed ONE MONTH IN THE FIELD WOOOOOOO!!!!! It’s been one of the longer months of my life, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. Im going to s...

FIRST WEEK IN THE FIELD

Image
Mannn what a week! Probably the hardest week of my life if I'm being honest.  Lets just start with the good stuff... First day after I got my comp and assignment we got on a bus for a 7 hour ride to our area Tecnogloico, which is in Juchitan! We were about 4ish hours into our 7 hour bus ride when the bus just stopped. We werent sure why so after we waited half an hour we got out and figure out that there was a blockade. So people were protesting... protesting what I'm not sure. We made our way back to the bus to sit and wait for 2 more hours. As they all say here "Gracias A dios"(thanks to God) I thought they were saying Gracias Adios the whole time. But... a member from Morro, which is a neighboring mission came and picked us up to bring us closer to Juchitan so that our Bishop could come get us. As I grabbed my two 60 pound suitcases and 30 pound carry on, it started to DOWN POUR. We walked about a half a mile in a full suit, will my big ole suitcases, down a road t...
