October 21, 2024-Moy buenos días mis amigos.

 Moy buenos días mis amigos. This week went by so so fast!  Now I get to talk to my momma again jajajaj

-Ok so we do 2 bike days week here. But the thing is we don't have a hitch, and we live far away from our friends. So, we pile all 3 bikes in the trunk of our car. It's like playing tetras. Also not mention we live in the mountains, so we spent 45 minutes trying to get up this big hill. Once we got to our arrival we got bashed but then proceeded to make a new friend so todo bien. 

-Gema is on date!!!! Literally the most cute sassy girl you will meet. November 6th bought to go crazy. 

- So, we have family we are teaching. They are literally so wholesome but PRAY PRAY PRAY for them! Liz, Pedro, Adolfo, and 2 littles. 

- ZONE CONFERENCE most amazing experience. Focused a lot on our foundation the "rock" which is Jesus Christ/ the doctrine of Jesus Christ. And focusing on building the rest of our "house" on the good things we can do to keep our testimonies growing. It was super amazing especially because ITS DOWNHILL FROM HERE BABY. That's right I hit 9 months tomorrow. Not a ton of time left. 

-spent 3 hours at urgent care for hna hansen. Pobrecita

I've been listening to the music from general conference constantly. And I love the song "We'll bring the world his truth." It is a officially my hype song. BUT as P Nelly has said. Jesus is coming again SOON. Don't live as the world does. Have INTEGRITY to keep your high standards. Don't let worldly temptations get you. After Jesus Christ fasted for 40 day and 40 nights he was tempted by the adversary. And he fought back with the words of God. FOLLOW HIS EXAMPLE. Bring the YOUR WORLD His truth. Continue to be further converted to the gospel of Jesus Christ. It's the only way to survive  .

Last couple of days have been so good and fulfilling. Monday night we helped our 8 year old friend do her homework and then we had a lesson with her. Then we went to do some fining at a trailer park and got called at by some creepy guys. Don’t worry they were perfectly harmless. Tuesday was absolutely crazy. Had a good district council I was asked to share something about MPLS and then I shared the screenshot as our purpose of missionaries that dad sent. And everyone loved it! Then we went to buy groceries for the week because we got money. Then we had a good lesson with our friend sunny he is the one who loves football. Our Russian friend was a no show so we stopped and talked to people at bus stops and in the park. Then we saw a couple of our friends at the park so we talked to them! But then it was so sad cause we saw this boy on the bench crying and he said that his mom just kicked him out of the house. So we said a prayer with him. But yeah good day!

Today was fun! It was honestly kinda relaxing. We had our service today. It was fun and they gave us lots of food to take home too! So it was a blessing! Then we literally had lunch, personal study, and dinner back-to-back. So I took a nap, read my scriptures and then made a bussin dinner. then we had some fire lessons tonight. A family said they wanted to enter into the celestial kingdom so they said they are going to come to church this next Sunday and we will put them on date there. And then a friend we handed out a English class card to last night pulled up to English class, but the elders lowkey stole him. So, we aren’t really sure what to do. And then for comp study we had date night at McDonald's and it was so delicious and fun! We talked about some of our favorite high school memories and talked about chick flicks too! SO all in all it was a successful day! Oh, plus this morning I got to talk to Hna Thompson on the phone, and I literally miss and love her so much and I am so sad she goes home this transfer.

Well, I am currently doing my personal study. My prayers have been kinda sucky lately. So, I went into the other room and said a prayer out lord. Just pleading with the lord to help me do what je wants me to do. And just pouring my heart out to be able to help our friends. And we just got a text from one of our friends that she just saw our spiritual text message from this morning. And she just got some bad news and our text reminder her to pray with a scripture. And she said she got in the car with jer daughter and told her to do praying hands and they said a prayer together. 

Ok the rest of the day was just fun. We rode on bikes for like 3 hours. We rode up a big, long hill. I thought my comps were gonna kill me. We got bashed and made a new friend! And the way back to the church was so fast and easy. Tonight was kinda crazy. We were just running around and running away from creepy men. Tomorrow is zone confrence and I am so excited.!

ZONE CONFRENCE! It was so spirit field, and I honestly am just so happy to be a missionary and the fact that I decided to stay is going to change my life. And in fact I might be getting a tiny tiny bit sad I only have 9 months more to do this. And then I have to go back to real human life. But I finally caught a slight glimpse of how this is going to bless my life in the future and how I am really going to be able to build my own family upon the the rock which is jesus christ and how I am finally learning more about HIS atonement and how it works in my own life. President also pulled me aside and told me that I need to call a missionary and have a chat with her because she is going through the same things I went through 7 months ago. Also, one of my favorite members from Bel 1 passed away. I am going to miss her so so much. I was planning on taking my famliy back to meet her because well first off she made the very best food and second she was one of the sweetest people ever. And she was only about 60 years old. But she help me with this missionary work more than ever now. I love her and my prayers are with her family tonight. Not much I have to say tonight other than that I know that this gospel, HIS GOSPEL is so very true and he loves us so much that his son broke the law of justice and created the law of mercy so that we have a way back to our Father in Heaven.

Hi!!! So basically, the last 2 days have been the most boring 2 days ever. We spent 3 hours at the urgent care for hna hansen because She has been sick. Pobrecita. But we put Gema on date to be baptized!! November 6th woot woot! I spoke in church today. Not really sure what I said. I ran out of time. Hahah. Our friends that were on there way to come had some crazy opposition and the Ex-husband showed Up and got mad. Anyway, they have to go to court tomorrow. Pray for them. No one came to church today from our friends or recent converts. That was discouraging. We were in the house so long today with all of our studies. But we played soccer with some kids at a trailer park. It was fun. And I told hna gastelum a story about one of my crushes in spanish for language study. Fur divertido. Super jealous about hunting and Oregon right now. But glad my family is having fun.
