A Very Hot Christmas!

This week was really good. We had Christmas, which we just had a party in the church with our zone, and we had an asado, which is just a big barbecue but better, and then we made sugar cookies and called our family. Probably the best part out of all the day. It was also really really hot this week, like I felt like my skin was cooking in the sun, so yay for living in an oven for the next 4 months!!! or with luck 3. But really this week was a little crazy because we also had two people get baptized this week on Sunday!!!! So like always, a good Crazy, but it was just trying to get them ready and all that stuff and the permission from their parents. But all went well, and on Saturday when we were not planning on cleaning the baptismal font, we looked into it and realized that there was still water in it and it was so dirty and it had cockroaches and millipedes and all types of bugs and dirt. So it's a good thing we came and looked at the font!! The baptism was so good, they were both from families who have not gone to church in a really long time and are ready to start over with their sons getting baptized. OH also they are both named Benjamin!!! Today, because it was so hot, we had a water balloon fight which was soooooo fun! When we didn't have any water balloons left, it turned into buckets water fight, it was kinda like swimming without swimming. But I think that was my favorite part of the week. But ya I´m just hoping that this week is good with the new year and everything. So HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! ( Año Nuevo!!!!) Hope that 2020 is really good for you all! and that this is one of the best years for you all. This year is going to be so GOOD with all the things in the church that are going to happen, so I'm just going to remind you all that the next general conference is coming up quick and to remember what President Nelson said! So all start preparing now!!!! Love you all and hope that you all have a good week and a good New Year! photos from christmas, baptism, and today

1 Month until General Conference

Yay we had a baptism this week por fin!!!!!!! It was so good, the family came with 8/14 of their kids so that was good!!! and the kids were so happy to get baptized! We also had two of the young men who are 16 years old baptize them. It was really cute to see them have their first baptism. Other than that, like always, not much happened. We had a tranquila semana and for two days I was with a different hermana. We had a great time together and we made brownies which was my first time in the mission. They were so good!!!! Remember that we are one month away from general conference and so we have a little time to prepare!!!! But how awesome it is to learn more about Joseph Smith and his story and how important it is to know that through Joseph Smith, we have the church of Jesus Christ again on the earth and the chance to have the gospel in our lives and feel this happiness that it brings into our lives! Love you all and hope that you all have a great week and make good decision...

Happy New Year ya'll!!!!!! This week was really good! Well, in some ways. First of all, New Years Day was just a chill day, we didn't do anything, just hung out with other missionaries and played games and watched movies. It was really fun! Other than that, there was only one other thing that really happened on Saturday, which was really kinda funny. So what happened is that this day was kinda hard for us because we didn't really feel very good, but we had so many people that yelled at us when we were in the street. Lots of members from other places, but the funniest one was when this drunk guy yelled at us and said "hermanas, when are you going to come and visit me?" and he crossed the street to come and talk to us, which we did, and he said that it was really hard to read our names and that they were in English so he didn't understand our names, but then he said that he wanted a book so we gave him a folleto and then he told us to give him one of our chu...

Hey everyone, this week was kinda crazy! It was my last week in my first area, Italia Centro.. RIP... but now I´m in a new area called San Martin (Misiones, Posadas) it is so cool and way different than my first area. This place has red dirt, hills, and trees. So it's way different than what I ́m used to, but I know that it will be really good for me, and that God has prepared this place and the people for me and my companion. Before I actually came to this area, in my older area, I ran into a tree... I thought you might like to know that. The only tree in Formosa, and I happened to run into it. But I ́m fine, I just have a little mark not too noticeable, but I'll send a picture. My new companion ́s name is Hermana Rowlings and she is from Nebraska. She only has for months left in the mission, so this will probably end up being her last area, so I have no idea how long I will be here. My companion and I are both new to the area so we are going to have a fun time figuring ev...
