WEEK 39

Hit 9 months this week! This past week was really good. We worked super hard and saw a lot of miracles. Our people are progressing so much and we're hoping to have some baptisms this next month. Here are some highlights from the week 

- ZONE CONFERENCE
We had zone conference on Thursday. It was great to see all of the elders again. All of the elders I know are starting to go home which sucks cuz I usually just talk to them but by August, all of the older elders will be gone. I'll be like the 6th or 7th oldest elder in the mission. I guess I gotta start getting to know the younger elders. But I learned a lot at our conference and it gave me a greater desire to work.

- MISSION FIRESIDE
We also had a fireside for our stake. All of the missionaries in our zone went and some of them had to help out in a Q&A. Our president and his wife were there too, so it was fun to see them again. We also sang for a musical number. But the best part was after — when I was talking to a kid about serving a mission. He said he didn't know if he wanted to go, so I talked to him for a bit. He had all of his papers done, but he wasn't sure if he wanted to commit. I just asked him to pray about it and on Monday, I got an email from him saying that he got an answer and submitted his papers. I'm super happy for him; I know it'll change his life.

Honestly, this week sounds pretty boring, but that's just the mission sometimes. It was actually really good.

Hope your week was as good as mine!

Love and Miss you all!!!

Alright, Imma start this week off complaining and then I'll get to the good parts — - WATER, POWER & GAS Monday-Wednesday, we had absolutely no water in our house. We had to shower with water bottles and honestly, it felt pretty weird. Once we finally got water, then we lost gas. It's so freakin' cold here in the mornings and it was so much worse with freezing cold water. Luckily by Friday, we had gas. On Thursday, we lost power, so we went without any electricity for 2 days and it kinda sucked cuz there was no where to charge our phones. Then on Saturday and Sunday, we got to watch general conference. We don't have a church here so one sister gave us her tv and another, their computer. We used our hot spot to put on general conference and right after the last session, we lost the last bit of our data. We used so much data streaming general conference and now we got no data for 2 more weeks. There's not a single member here with wifi so now we gotta go 2 weeks w...

Had a great week! Here are the highlights — - ZONE CONFERENCE We had our Christmas Zone Conference. It was the best zone conference I've been to. They had a Christmas program so we heard a bunch of Christmas stories and sang a bunch of songs. After, we played a bunch of games and broke a piñata. We had secret santas and I got a poncho that I now wear to bed every night cuz it's freakin cold here! Our mission president gave everyone gifts and then I got some from my parents. - NAVIDAD It was super cool to spend my last Christmas here in Mexico. I was in a trio so it felt kinda weird but it was super fun! We honestly did nothing for Christmas day but Christmas Eve, we went to a member's house and played a bunch of soccer. Then  I had to check in with all the companionships in my zone, but after, we had pasole! We finished by playing one of the most intense games of Uno I have ever played. We prolly got home at like 11:30 and talked for 30 minutes. At midnight, when Christmas ...

I reached a milestone this week...3 months as a missionary. Here are some of the highlights —  - SERVICE This week we had another service project. This lady wants to start a garden in her backyard, but first we needed to clean it out. It had bushes and long grass covering the entire space. Also, there were probably 1000 grasshoppers. Every plant or blade of grass we pulled had at least a few on them. There were tons of spiders and other insects. We spent two hours just pulling bushes and grass and got about ¾ of the way done with her backyard. We are going back on Tuesday to finish the backyard and to do the front yard. After we were done, we stayed for lunch and the lady gave us soggy pig skin to eat. The sisters hated it. I wasn't a fan either but the sisters would just throw their food onto our plates when the lady wasn't looking so we ended up having to eat far more than our share. - GENERAL CONFERENCE General conference was so good this week. I couldn't understand all ...
