Howdy everybody Theres not much to talk about this week but I do have a few fun stories to share 1. As we were working one day we come up to this house and attempted to find this lady and so you know I clapped my hands and shouted hola and this garage door thing opens and literally 6 basically naked dudes are just standing there and I am trying so hard not to laugh and my companion couldnt see what I could and I am trying to ask this guy a question but hes basically naked and I was laughing so hard so I had to end the interaction Hermana Willden was so confused but when I told her what I saw she laughed so hard.  2. On Saturday we went to a teaching appointment and all these puppies were out side and this little girl comes out and asks if we want to hold them and of course I say yes and so we start talking to her and during the lesson the puppy fell asleep in my arms it was so cute!!!!! We invited her to be baptized she said no but as an apology she said we could name the puppies w...

Ok well this week was wack especially Thursday as we were walking this old guy calls us over to his house and we get all excited because we don't have much people to teach so we walk over and start talking to him and he asks if we believe in the Bible and of we course we say yes and hes all excited but then he asks us about the 13th apostle of Jesus Christ me and Hermana Willden just look at each other and this guy is like " yeah yeah hes in the bible theres not 12 apostles theres 13" and spends like 15 minutes telling us about this apostles and im just all around confused and then he talks about Adam and Eve and how they never actually exsisted and how we actually had 4 first parents who were all a different color: red, yellow, white and black. Me and Hermana Willden just stood there not knowing how to respond. We left that interaction with confused looks on our faces and laughed our heads off because it was so freakin weird. Later as we were walking this old lady from a...

Hola hola!!!  Today I reached three months!!!!!!!!  Will this week there is nothing much to talk about I worked 3 days with Hermana Roselli ( my Italian bestie) it was sad saying goodbye but I have a new companion and trainer and guys I absoultey love her!!! She is the complete opposite of Hermana Labbé. Hermana Willden is loud, full of energy and has the most bubbly personality. Every day is just so much fun. She is such a hard worker and although she only has 5 months in the mission her Spanish is freakin incredible.  This week was really frustrating because our two baptisms fell through and I almost cried when Guadalupe said she didnt want to continue learning and didnt want to be baptized I was so sad because I had so much faith and love for her but we carry on I guess.  A little about my area: I have been serving in Metan these last 6 or so weeks and I am getting really frustrated because every day we teach the same people because we have no one to teach and we ...

A story from last week that I forgot to share: I am so embarrassed a member asked me to pray in English so I was like " of course!" But GUYS!!! I FORGOT ENGLISH!!! I am not kidding. I couldn't remember English words. It was so embarrassing after the prayer they just looked at me and laughed and went " ella no recuerda inglés" I wanted to die but I guess that just means I am getting the hang of Spanish. Today we have transfers and my mission mamá ( my companion and trainer ) has been called as a STL ( basically the head Sister of a zone ) and is leaving me today. I am actually writting this email while we wait for her bus. My new companion is Hermana Wilden she is American, but she wont be here until Thursday so my temporary companion is my Italian bestie Hermana Roselli!!! This week we had a zone conference to meet our new mission president his wife. And I actually understood a conference for once because it was in English lol.  Brisa and Guadalupe accepted our ...

Hola my friends across the globe! Its official we have a new mission president and we are twins because we have the same last name ( sorta its spelt different but pronounced the same). The hard thing is they are American and speak 0 Spanish so guess who gets to attempt to translate yeah I do its funny because when they start talking my companion looks at me and I just shrug and do my best. But I am no longer the worst at spanish in the mission lol. ( kidding but not kidding ) This week I felt like there was something crazy everyday On Tuesday we had to pick up a box of Book of mormons that weighed about 40 pounds and had to carry it about 3 miles back to the apartment what was hard was my companion couldnt lift it ( shes weak ) so I was the one who got to carry it.I wanted to die I thought my arms were going to fall off and I was so sore the next day.  Wednesday I was almost attacked and bit by a dog. We were trying to find this reference and we walked up this literal mountain to f...
