WEEK 62

 This week was really good. Here are the highlights —

- ZONE CONFERENCE
We had Zone Conference and one of the seventies came down to attend our meeting. I learned a bunch. It was really weird cuz my comp was conducting the zone conference!!... so we had to sit up front and face everyone. Not gonna lie — I felt a little bit judged up in that seat. But also, after the meeting, the seventy asked if he could have an interview with me. It was super cool!! It was prolly like 15 minutes, but it literally changed my life!!

- LEADERSHIP TRAINING
We also had leadership training!! It was pretty nuts!! It was like 2 and a half hours away from our house so the night before we stayed at the apartment of the assistants. That was nuts! We first went and got tacos and then went back to the house. We had a few calls to make and then we had a nerf war and broke a cabinet!! So then we decided to go to bed but ended up talking for like an hour and a half. Then we had to wake up at 4 am which absolutely sucked!! Then we had a 2 hour combi ride!! It was a combi for 8 people and we had to fit 14 (8 elders and 6 sisters)!! It was the most uncomfortable I've ever been on my mission!! I had someone sitting on my lap the entire two hours. We finally got there and it was a super good training. We learned a lot and hopefully our mission can get a lil bit better from what we learned!!

- UPDATE ON THE WORK
Also, just a side note, one of my friends from my old area in Actopan got baptized. Sucks I couldn't be there, but it was super cool to see his picture all in white!! But now we are working in this Zone!! When I arrived, it was the worst zone in the mission, but now we are getting better. And hopefully in a few months, we can be even better!!

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 ...
