Hello everyone! Espero que tuvieron una buena navidad! Miss you all! It was a fun and crazy week. Christmas on the mission doesn't really feel like Christmas but it was still really fun. We had our last day with the Christmas lights and not gonna lie I was ready for it to be done. It was so so fun and there were tons of miracles but it was super tiring. Also it's almost 2025 now which is crazy! We were in the vc a lot this week and I saw so many people I know! We got to give out lots of book of Mormons as usual, some in crazy languages which is fun. Also explained the temple a lot which never gets old. I love the temple so much. After pday ended last week we filled in for some sisters who were sick and couldn't come into the vc so we weren't even supposed to be there that night but I saw two families I know and it was a huge tender mercy. God knew I needed that.  On Christmas we went to the Porters who are a senior couple at the vc and we watched escape from Germany and...

Hola a todos! Espero que todos hayan tenido una buena semana!  Ya casi es Navidad! Christmas is in 2 days but it's still 75 degrees haha. Arizona is crazy. I am so so tired from Christmas lights. Fighting the urge to fall asleep every time I sit down somewhere. Ive also gotten so behind on journaling rip. But the holidays are fun so it's worth it. Knocked so so many doors this week. Had a friend named Diego come to church yay! Overall a great week! We had zone conference on Tuesday and it was so fun! We did a live nativity, had a "snowball" fight, ate good food, and got to hear lots of good spiritual messages. In our zone breakout we talked about how we can truly rely on Christ and give all our struggles and trials to Him and how He can help us through them. I love zone conference and it's always exactly what I need to hear. We knocked tons of doors this week and had some silly interactions but saw lots of miracles. We were knocking these apartments at like 8pm an...

Hello everyone! I hit 6 months as a missionary tomorrow. How crazy is that?? This week was so so crazy and busy and exhausting but full of miracles. I feel like my brain is mush and I can't ever remember anything but I am learning so much and am grateful for the miracles every day. Ok we had transfers on Tuesday which means I have been with Hermana Rocha for almost a week now. She is so fun and laid back. She's been educating me all about England. She said she misses the queen. We have had lots of fun and she's still a sorta new missionary and I just got to the area so we are just having fun learning from each other and learning the area. This area is tiny but has tons of Spanish people and there are literally thousands of apartments. She is super motivated but keeps it fun. Also her English accent is awesome! We live near the temple which is so lucky. We have been doing morning walks around the temple and getting to see the sunrise and the temple first thing in the morning...

Hello everyone! Hope you all had a good week. I honestly can't really remember what happened this week other than being in the vc a bunch for xmas lights and transfer news and going to the temple last pday. Christmas lights is super fun but so exhausting! We get home at like 10:45 every night and only get to sleep in 30 mins so needless to say the sleep deprivation is setting in. I could not keep my eyes open in a single comp study or meeting this week, it was bad. But it's been so fun to meet people from all over and to get to see so many miracles every single day. We give out copies of the Book of Mormon like candy and it's so awesome. My absolute favorite thing so far has been the station where we are upstairs because that's where the temple model is. Its usually a lot slower upstairs cuz half the people don't even make it up there but because of that we get to have more personalized experiences with the guests. My favorite thing is when people ask "so what ...

Hola a todos espero que su semana era muy bien y que ustedes tuvieron una buena día de gracias!! This week was long and kinda insane. I'm tired and ready for pday and am so excited that we get to go to the temple! Last pday we went to goodwill and me and my comp found matching dresses! We also did an escape room as a district which was super cool. Got MOD pizza which was an absolute dream. I love that place.  My comp got super sick so we tried to work when we could but ended up mostly staying at the apartment for a couple of days. While she was sleeping, I got a lot of good personal study time and caught up on my journaling. I also got to take some naps which is rare as a missionary so that was super nice. And she's feeling way better now which is good! On thanksgiving my comp was still super sick so we spent most of the day at the house but we were able to go to our thanksgiving dinners. The first one we had traditional thankgiving food and the other we had tamales! I love tam...
