Hello everyone! Long time no see! I truly have been slacking on my email game and my mission president would agree haha (oops) I feel like time has just been flying and I forget all the things I need to do haha. Life has been crazy fun and I just love it haha, here's a run down of some highlights
☆ subbed the cutest sunbeams class and during singing time we were singing mother I love you and this little kid just blurts out " this is the saddest song EVER!" and was just so heartbroken and upset by his feelings, it was so pure and cute and the funniest thing ever haha it brought me so much joy
☆ We did service for a family we are teaching and cleared tumble weeds from their yard and we had a stack 6 feet tall and like 10 feet around it was actually insane
☆ had elote from an awesome ice cream truck 10/10
☆ Got food poisoning from some mole and were puking on the drive home haha
☆ went to a burger place and took a pic with the loml
☆ got absolutely rejected by my abuelito even though we could hear his phone ringing and choosing to ignore us haha cried
☆ went out knocking doors and got invited to a baptism and confirmation party for a different church? Had bomb food and an awesome talk about other religions and how as long as we are trying to listen to God's voice and respect/love his children we are doing what he asks! They were so awesome!
☆ had a funeral for a worm with some kids we are teaching
☆ attempted to film videos for hallar paz! Go like the page please!!! It's cool 
☆ taught tons of English classes and met lots of awesome people! One of them we met on the street and he was like um one day can you please preach to us ? We almost died, it was such a miracle !
Man, being a missionary is hard work but I love reflecting on the weeks and seeing all the miracles big and small! There are so many random little things that just make me die laughing and love life so much. Sometimes in life you're down in the dumps with a broken femur, having problems with family, feeling abandoned by God, feeling alone in your trial and just begging for the burden to be lifted and I can just testify that great things await. Even though your trial might always be there, even your whole life God has great things in store. Maybe it comes in the little moments that make you laugh, good friends to cheer you up, an answer to a prayer, a good song on the radio, or sometimes it will come in the form of a miracle. But no matter what I can promise that great things await you, and me, and all of us! Because God has a perfect plan, he knew we would make mistakes, go through hard times, struggle with temptation, and deal with imperfection our whole lives. So that is why he sent his only begotten Son, for us to have the opportunity to experience the great things of this life that could only come through the healing, sanctifying, freeing power of the atonement. I can promise you that God has great things in store for you! You are so loved that God would've sent his only begotten son again and Jesus Christ would do it all again for YOU !
I love you. But God loves you more!
