Hola a todos! Hope you all had a great week! My week was pretty good. Time is starting to go by faster and this week was full of miracles! I had zone conference on Tuesday which was good! On Thursday me and Hma Jones went to a different area for an exchange and there was a huge dust storm while we were knocking doors so we did some phone contacting in the car until it went away and Hma Palma, the sister we were on the exchange with, had us sing a song over the phone for not only one, but two different people. So we sang acapella families can be together forever in spanish over the phone two times in a row and it was so awkward and I basically just laughed the whole time. We are teaching these two guys named Nelson and Ali and last Sunday we got them to come to church by sitting down on their couch and basically not leaving until they agreeded to come.

Hola a todos! Miss you all and hope you all had a great week! My week was pretty eventful and I am learning so much every day which is good! Being a missionary is hard and scary but even on the hardest days, there are things to be joyful about! Ok so this week was crazy! We had so many lessons with so many different friends!

We are teaching a ton of people right now and since we are in the VC half the time we don't really have room to teach anyone else so I have only gone knocking doors one time so far.

Hello everyone! I've oficially made it to my mission! I left mtc 6 days ago and with traveling I missed my mtc pday and now my pdays will be Monday with one Tuesday pday every transfer because of the temple. Ok here's my rundown of the last almost 2 weeks with leaving mtc and arriving in my mission... I finished up my visitors center classes on a Friday and had a super spiritual ending to my last class at the mtc. I loved my teachers! Then the next day was saturday and we went to temple square for a full day. All of the visitors center sisters get to do it and it was super fun! My comp for the day was a sister from Australia which was so cool! We got chick-fil-a for lunch at the mall nearby and it was the best thing ever. It was so so good to eat normal person food after 6 weeks of the mtc food. Monday night took a bunch of pics and said goodbyes to all of my friends and then left the mtc tuesday morning. Had to say bye to my comp Hermana Fox and the other sisters in my distric...
