Week 24: you'll find me in the middle of nowhere:)

Well everyone, this week we got the news that I'm being transferred to the one place I always said I didn't want to go....RIVERTON WYOMING! yeehaw. God definitely has a sense of humor! But in all seriousness, I am super excited to start a new and wonderful adventure in Wyoming! I know it's where the Lord wants me to be. I'm gonna be finishing up training a cute Sister from Idaho! It will be a blast. I just keep telling myself that haha. Another funny thing--because of Covid cases rising we aren't having a transfer bus...so I will be driving the whole 6 hours to Riverton by myself!! Send me all your fav conference talks please It was so bittersweet to say goodbye to the family I've made here in Bella Rosa. I could not have dreamed up a better ward! I will never forget all the amazing members that fed us everynight and were always looking out for us. I also feel SO blessed to have been apart of the Teaupa and Dunagan familes' journey into the gospel. Their tes...

Ciao!! What's up everyone? Hope you all are doing good and staying safe cuz Corona is getting crazyy lately! I'm just happy for every day I get to still go out and see people...praying we don't have to be locked in our apartment anytime soon🙏 These past 2 weeks have flown by.

We have been doing this thing where we teach lessons to members in our ward who were converts to the church and they act like their "old selves". This way, we get to practice teaching and they can give us feedback. Plus the spirit in these lessons has been sooo strong and the members love it. -Found a new person! José. Missionaries have taught him befor...

Week 21: double dunkeddd

Ciao:) It's been such a great week and I am so grateful to be a missionary! Prima, happy birthday yesterday to the cutest and coolest 7 year old in the world--I love and miss u Chasers❤ This week both Raiden and Henry got baptized! Double dunked baby. It was the happiest day ever. Seeing how the gospel has changed this family just makes my heart so full. When I first met Henry, he wasn't interested in the church, had a beer fridge in his garage and thought "mormons" were polygamists who rode around on horses and buggies. BUT if I wouldn't have known any better, I would have thought he was a member! He is constantly serving everyone around him, always making others feel so good about themselves and is a wonderful father to his kids. He truly personifies the attribute of charity and he will do amazing things as a member of the church! I can't wait to see where his decision takes his family and I'm so excited for them to be sealed in the temple next year.  I ...
