Hello
all! Sorry I have to email really early today and can’t chat, we are going to
the Carlsbad Caverns as a District again, and I am stoked! It will be really
fun to get to do it with Sister Peck and the other newbies in the District! I’m
really looking forward to it!
This
week has been really good, and crazy, and really good again. Haha! We went to
Zone training on Tuesday in Roswell, and I got to go get food at Buffalo Wild
Wings! BWW used to be my favorite place before my mission! I went in there and felt
so apostate! So, obviously, we got take out because there were TV’s and beer
everywhere....it was just another witness to me how much I’ve changed since
coming on my mission!
Desire
has a baptismal date for this Friday and she has been reading every day and
coming to church!! Please pray for her that her nerves will leave, and that she
can feel peace and receive the confirmation that she needs right now! We know
she is ready, and God knows she is ready, she just needs to step out on that
faith. We are really excited for her. She is amazing~!
We
biked 6 and a half miles to a senior center on Thursday - in 104 degree heat!
It was intense! We didn’t quite know how far it was! Haha! But it was good
because we showed the ladies there that we were committed and really wanted to
come and serve. And now they love us! :) It was awesome! Not the sunburn
though. Whoops!
Also,
we have a new development in our...wonderful apartment. I was getting ready for
bed and I saw something go under our hallway closet door, and I thought it was
a massive cockroach. So I made Sister Peck investigate the closet. She started
moving stuff around and, when she picked up the vacuum, a mouse popped out and
ran straight towards us and we ran and jumped on our beds. I was crying (obviously),
and when Sister Peck was able to stop laughing long enough, she took a video of
me bawling. So yeah, that’s super fun. Now I have a video of me bawling from a
sheep and from a mouse. Oh how mission life humbles you!
We
have had some CRAZY lessons lately. Like some people here are unlike anyone I’ve
ever met. So funny. But I really can’t describe them to you well enough on
email. Just know that I’m staying entertained for sure!
It’s
been a little bit of an emotional draining week for us, but whenever we have a
hard time we take a breather and go sit on the dock behind our apartment, and
look at the river and talk. We call them dock talks. Haha :) It’s great to be
best friends with your comp so you can talk things out!
I can’t
believe how time is flying! It’s crazy. I’m so glad that I get to enjoy it so
much and love the work and people.
I
love you all!
Love,
Hermana
