The last few days have been so wonderful. Being with sister Winger was a perfect reset. I was there to help her, but I think she helped me even more. we taught so much together, and we were able to bring new souls unto christ. On Tuesday we had a lunch with a member. She was so so sweet. I got to see hna Thompson! Quite possibly the best day ever. I wish I had more time with her. After lunch we were litterally running to catch the bus. It was great though. We talked to so many people on the bus and they thought it was hilarious how much we were running. AND that night I got to see Camilia. her family is in Bel 1. Her grandma always fed us and unfortunately, she us the one that passed away It was so good to see her. I gave her the biggest hug and told her to say hi to her family for me. And today I am now back with hermana gastelum. We have had so much fun. Today at the food back I was trying to advertise the sweets table a little more. People loved it so much. Amd we actually ran into one of our friends that we met st the Halloween party that we haven't been able to see in a while. So it was so perfect!! I hope we can teach her and help her enter into the waters of baptism! And just barely I made some homemade banana bread!! It was absolutely delicious. Also, this morning hna Thompson came to our house to pick up the bike she left!! And she said I could have her weight set! I'm gonna miss her a ton.

So e last couple of days with hna gastelum have honestly been some of the best days this transfer. We have laughed a lot and have walked so much! Yesterday we invited someone to be baptized, and he said he'd be down when he learns more. But he totally wants to be baptized. And also We went to a super delicious mexicano restaurant called joselitos. It was delicious and the vibes were so there. We talked to so many people and have been grinding. Today was so fun. We walked 10 miles. We went to a cute Danish ice cream store to weekly plan and then went to lunch with the old people. One of them is going to make me a cute pen Then we went to this garden place and planned more amd walked around! Then we walked all the way back to our house which was was 4 miles and talked to so many people and God literally put us in the right place at the right time to talk to this one lady. And then we had a lesson with another friend and he said he would prepare to be baptized. Unfortunately, this is the last day with hna gastelum. I might actually cry. I don't want to be split from her. But it will be ok. I am excited to get to know hna hansen on a personal level. Kinda nervous, just because she is very strong headed. But it will be ok.

So basically, the last two days have been a roller coaster of emotions. Saturday was just a ball full of anxiety. But we walked a lot and talked to a lot people. Had a good lesson with Liz our friend. She is going through a lot of hard things, and after her lesson I just got so stressed out. And then we got home, and my mind started going absolutely crazy and stressed beyond measure. And so I ended up calling hna smith and she helped me call down also had a chat with president. Today we had ward council at 8 am and had to leave the house at 7:10 to catch the bus, but we actually missed the bus, so we called our ward mission leader for a ride. They saved the day. Church was good. We only had 1 friend come. Went back home for lunch and personal study and cop study. It was good. Then made 3 new friends on the bus which was awesome! Had a great lesson with hector our friend. Then took a 50-minute walk to a new member family that moved in, and they are so so cute!!!!! I love them already. Then we went to eat dinner in the trailer again. Then as we were waiting to take the bus back home some lady yelled at us and asked if we were Mormons haha.she was so sweet. and is an inactive member. Got on the bus and talked to so many people! It was great! Thus we taught 62 lessons and made 12 new friends. I never want to have a car again hahahah. 

Transfer News: I am going to the other side of the mission to be an STL with Hna Zavala who is one of my best friends in the whole world.

Well today was long but filled with lots of good things. I got my heart rate up to 180 this morning. It literally felt so good. We had goal setting as a zone this morning, cool to see the zone come together and make goals to help fulfill the fathers will. personal study today was good. I am so close to finishing the book of mormon. I really liked Ether 15:34. Just how it refers to doing the lords will, which is something that I am not the best at. Today the lord concecrated our efforts. We got a super prepared refferal who wants to learn more about the book of mormon. And the other one literally ran into us on the way back to our car. Finally seeing a little bit of the fruits of our efforst from finding!! Today we had interviews and I didnt cry!!!

He even told Hermana Smith that I am a very obedient dilligent missionary. He was also excited...

A note from Daddy Travis

 August 21, 2024 Good Morning Hermana! I am looking forward to hearing about your new area, your new apartment, and about your WANT LIST for the next package I am going to send you!  The cherry chip cookies you will absolutely love!!!   Remember the object of this week – REMEMBER LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE PAST!  A quick story for you – Mary and her mommy were going for a walk .  Some people they passed were frowning ( pause your reading this story and put on the biggest frown that you have) .  Mary asked Mommy, “Why are the people so sad?” Mommy said, “I don’t know, but maybe we can smile at them and help them be happy.” As they walked along, Mary saw a woman coming toward them. Mary smiled her biggest smile  (pause again and put on your biggest smile!)..  When the woman saw Mary’s happy face, she smiled back. Mary said, “It worked!” Mommy said, “When we choose to be happy, it helps others be happy too.”   These past weeks, I have needed your ...
