MLC in the mountains

 March 31, 2025

HOLLAAA PARTY PEOPLE QUE TAL COMO ESTAMOS! ESTA SEMANA PASO MUY RÁPIDO GRACIAS A DIOS 

BASICALLY we had MLC in the mountains. It wa the best thing ever. It was so cool becuase the spirit was just 10 times as strong I swear. And going on a hike to the top of the mountain ad having your mission president drop absolute bars of a spiritual thought is definitely 10/10. Boy do I miss the mountains  ohhh how could I forget but I also got to see my bestfriends in the whole wide world 

My comp has been dying in bed the last few days poor girl. And when we were calling people we found out one of our yellow dots went to church last week and he said he would come again this week. 

There is this one guy Roy who takes the missionaries out to eat every friday for luch amd we went to Joey's BBQ. It was absolutely delicious. I hadn't had a good piece of meat in a while and plus they were had some really good country music going  

we need some miracles in this area so please send prayers 

Read Mark 14 while you take the sacrament this week. It will make the day hit different. 

Les amo mucho

3/26/25 Wednesday

Well last couple days I have felt a little better. We kinda just stayed in the house all Monday and did phone calls. I also got to jump a fence so that was fun. And Tuesday we had to go to office and there was a lot of traffic. But we had a cool lesson with our friend jose. But he talks a lot. We were there for a long time. But he is cool. Has some good potential. 

3/27/25 thursday 

Best day of my literal life. We had MLC In the mountains. I literally could not have been happier. It was so peaceful and I felt the spirit so much. We went on a little hike, and then the wind started to blow in the trees and I remembered that that is how God says hi to us and reassures us that he is there I definitely started to tear up, boy do I miss the mountains. It was the best. Also most of the stls are hermanas so I got to see all of my favorite people including hna zavala. I forgot how much I loved her. I needed her that day for sure. I got to take 20 minutes to my self and I just got to kneel down in the trees and feel peace. Which has what I have needed with this adjustment. So amazing 

3/28/25 Friday

Hna Terry woke up with a stomach bug, but we had so many meetings so we still went. I still have been pretty anxious so my workouts In the morning have been good but I usually cry while I am working out. We went to a really cool restaurant called Joey's. And I had some really good meat. Plus they were playing All the good country songs. After we just went home and did weekly planning and stayed in the whole night and called people. Let's just say staying in was kinda rough for me. 

3/29/25 saturday 

Got to go on exchanges with sister ellsworth. I lived with her in hacienda Heights so it was nice to be with her again. Just did chinese work. It was fun and a good break for me. 

3/30/25 sunday

Well what an interesting day. I genuinely just might be a little depressed. that night be an exaggeration but I have just been really sad. Taking The sacrament really helped though. None of our friends came to church. My companion is still kind sick. she constantly asks me how I'm doing or what I'm doing. Getting a little irritated. I feel like I'm failing as a missionary and as a stl. I haven't really felt loved by anyone in like 2 weeks ever since I left my last area. I'm really trying promise. I got a text from the bishop in my last Area telling me his daughter bore her testimony and said that she lost her best friend but she wants to grow up to be just like her (a missionary). We talked to some cool people today though. Had a good lesson amd made a couple new friends! It was good.
