 October 12, 2021

holllaaaaaa


this week was very long and wild soooo we will get to it haha

for people who don't wanna read: people dropped us, baptism!!, my 6 months, temple trips, concussion 

For people who do want to read:
Tuesday was pday obviouslyyyyy haha but we went to the elders apartment complex which literally is so nice like it's insane. we played chess and fooseball and pool and ping pong and all it was so fun. then we went to the temple later on that night and just sat outside and studied...it was so peaceful...
Wednesday morning we had interviews with our president and he literally gave me the best advice ever. He's such an awesome person and he cares and can tell when somethings off. He literally has been such a blessing and instead of being in there for 5 minutes my interview ended up being like 25 minutes long I think hahah...we had English class again and a lot of people came so that was good!! Then we had mission correlation meeting and our mission leader in the ward made a really funny comment about baptizing Lourdes hahah (side story on that later). He said we needed to give her a church tour show her the already filled up font and throw her in haha...not happening nor will that ever happen but it was quite funny. We played soccer and ate fish ceviche and there was a really hot pepper in It and I gave it to on eof the elders and said it's not hot I just don't like peppers and he straight up shoves it in his mouth and all of us just gasped and then he starts dying because it was sosooooo hot hahaha I felt bad but it was funny. 
Thursday got to meet alize and shes so cute!! Literally love her!! We had weekly planning today too which isnt that bad anymore I'm excited to see the progress of these people because they basically all are new!! Then we had dinner with HNA GALVASSSS I love her haha she totally called me out for something and she went down on my friends list haha jkjk but it was crazy. Then we showed up to laykas house...story time on that later. Then we visited this girl names estela who's a less active and that was so long oh my hahah she could talk for days and it was just so awkward ahhh...
Friday morning we were supposed to have a lesson withbsomeone and she left anyways weird but we were out of gas it said we didn't have any left in the car and me freaking out im like wait what how come we didn't get gas before or yesterday or a couple days ago when we mentioned it so she drives and thank the heavens there was a gas station right around the corner from this ladies house so we fill up andngo back home to do studies. Then we had zone council/district council. Those are always fireeeee. Thennn we had a lesson with Edith. Now, her new address is not in our ward and we were sooo sad right. So we bring the montevista elders with us, and half way thru the lesson she goes yeah this is an airbnb and I was like wait what so in my head I'm like did she just say what I think she said then she keeps talking and said that in a couple weeks she's moving in with a famiky in our WARD and I was like whattt no way but then I like smacked my hand over my mouth and then I looked at the elders and they were like beyond confused and I was trying to not laugh because I realized they weren't even supposed to be there but it's fine whatever we put her on date to be baptized the 23rd of October!!
Saturday NELLYS BAPTISMMMM ahhhh. So basically we get there and it's only missionaries haha then this person walks in with two girls and we can see him from afar and the elders start getting all excited and I couldn't twkk who it was until it hit me who it was and I ran over because it was JACK CLARK!! He left after my first transfer but he came to surprise us and nelly!! Literally he helped me a lot and j still remember the blessing he gave me my second week clear as day. Forever grateful for how much they helped me adjust to the mission. Then he was like so shocked I was back in barrio and he was like hey I want to thank you for everything and for taking care of Maya and Chezady and taking care of the gamas and for working so hard and caring so much like you're doing amazing. And idk it just felt good to hear that because its been hard and I forget but it's been good and it's a new start for them. Anyway so everyone was so excited to see him haha and Nelly was beyond excited. She was so cute and I'm so proud of her. She's an amazing person and I'll be forever grateful for that family. Then we went to have dinner with hna mendozaaaa she fed us like a 4 course meal no joke it was so good. Also side note on Lourdes, she dropped us and literally we almost cried it was so sad....
Sunday was fast Sunday which was super  spiritual!! We had 2 people at church Edith and gabby. They are the bestttt. Then we came home and I took a nap because I had a really bad migraine. That made it worse hahsh we had studies and all that jazz them went to a.members house for dinner which was really good, then went with hna galvas to another house, then Edith house! 
Monday we had studies and it was my 6 MONTHS AHHH I literally go home next year Oct 11, 2022....ahhhh weird. I got spoiled and bombarded. My comp Worthington jumped on me after I woke up and then tello came and hugged me and they wrote a cute message on our mirror and celebrated me all dayyyy. We had a lesson with gabby and ate panda. Then we ended up dropping layka😭😭 for good....it was very hard and I was so sad...but it's okay...then we foundnout our elders got in a biking accident. So we go visit hna Worthington old friend she was teaching at work and she gave us food and we got the elders food. Then we sat and talked with all of them for awhile except the one in the hospital they had to leave him behind...so that was sad but he's okay ish now he just has a concussion...the other one just got road stains on his clothes but he got trapped between the bikes and slid 15 feet like the other elder too. But the one that got stuck was fine...very sad but we love our elders they are so funny and so kind. Literal angels haha. After we brought the food he was like what can I do for you guys and we were like no stop like you're the hurt ones no haha...so christlike. 

Anyway haha so long I'm so sorry but I hope you enjoyed it and yeah!! 

Something i learned and it hit me hard is that God is listening to my prayers and I have received answers thru other people's posts and things and it just makes me so happy god is aaware. He's always there. Reach out to him!! 

Love you all

 April 5, 2022 hola!!!! this week just kinda flew by and now we are half way thru the transfer....idk how that happened but it did haha!!  we had zone conference which is always soooo good!!! and right after we had interviews!!! interviews are always a blessing and help me out a lot. President said to me, "hermana, its life long discipleship that matters, not lifelong missionary discipleship." and that hit me like a brick...I have had to rely on God a lot this week with the stress and anxiety of a couple things but my mission president really helped out. so, if you all could pray for me and things to get better physically that would mean the world😇 despite the hard days and the rejection, there is so much good that comes from serving a mission. and I'm so grateful for it every day. it is going to be so hard to leave my mission and I don't want it to come earlier than planned!!! but I learned a lot from GENERAL CONFERENCE this weekend which was straight bars by the wa...
