WEEK 48

Hit 11 months this past week. Nothing big really happened but here are the highlights —

- AMIGOS
We found a whole bunch of new people this week. It was super nice since we split our area and all of our baptismal dates were part of the area given to the sisters. But this week, we found a bunch of new people. Two families both said they want to get baptized, but we gotta wait and see if they actually want to come to church and do the things they need to in order to get baptized.

- SERVICE
We helped a girl clean up her yard. She has a huge dirt lot and had TONS of stuff. We spent a good three hours cleaning and moving it. There was a huge metal TV and everyone nominated me to move it. When I went to pick it up, I sliced my whole finger — from the top to the bottom. There was blood pouring everywhere and my whole hand was covered in blood. One of the sisters threw up when she saw my hand and another one started crying. But after like five minutes, it stopped gushing blood and I was fine. I might have to go to the doctors to get a tetanus shot, but we just gotta wait and see.

- ELDER MORETT
Also, one of the elders serving here is leaving for his real assignment to Puerto Rico so we had two goodbye parties for him. One was with our neighbor and the other was with the bishop. We just ate a whole lot of food and sang a bunch of karaoke. It was actually super sad cuz Elder Morett is a super good missionary and is exactly like my brother. So whenever I talked with him, I felt like I was talking to my brother. 

Anyways, hope your week was as good as mine.

Love you all!

WEEK 96

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 ...
