What's up peeps!

I wish I had something exciting to talk about, but I don't have anything.

PSYCCCHHHH hahahah this week was bombin! Where to start! So like, I'm permanently exhausted! All the time! I wake up tired, I go to bed tired, always tired and its great! The worst part of the day is definitely exercise time. After that, I'm alright haha. I'm like, my life is exercise why do I have to set apart time to do so?! But whatever its fine. 

This week we worked real hard trying to get people to General Conference and ultimately were unsuccessful. But we learned a lot juntos [together] about profetas and apostles and why they are important to us. Its like, these little things, little truths that I've taken for granted my whole life and know I'm getting the opportunity to figure out why they are important, so it's been a cool smash of learning for me. 

LIKE get this. Biggest thought of the week. Repentance = joy. How can this be? Well I asked the same thing! Repentance makes us all sad because we're screw ups right? WRONG. IF we repent, we know there is a Savior that can heal us. Through the Savior's Atonement, we find hope. Hope that we can repent, that we can progress! What is the purpose of life? To progress and "men are that they might have joy" verdad?[true?] VERDAD. Soooo when you repent, you realize you have hope in greater things to come, and this hope brings you joy! Sick, right!

To answer general questions, this week we've been really proud of our investigator Sergio, who is going to get baptized the end of this month. He is 11 and he reads his scriptures like there is no tomorrow. So listo [clever]. WE also met this sweet old woman named Rutilia, and as we walked away from our first lesson with her, I looked at Hna Noorda and I was like, she already knows its true. And Hna Noorda is like, I know. And I'm like, what do we do ? Shes like, we get a fecha [date]! And so we go back for our second lesson and Rutilia wont except a fecha for her baptism and its driving me nuuutssss! Like you know its true JUST DO IT but she won't because her whole family is catholic and shes scared to leave her church even though she openly admitted she knows her church is wrong. Sigh.Praying for inspiration. 

What else! Oh it rained! And we got caught out in the boonies with no boots or jackets or nothing and it was so hilarious. We like got all soaking wet and we knock on the door of this guy and we're like hi, we're the missionaries and we have the gospel. WE hand him this soggy book of mormon and we have mascara running down our faces and mud up to our knees ha!!! He laughed openly at us and I can't judge because I would have done the same thing. 

OKAY I know this is too long already! I love all of you!!! Keep the faith, glad that we could unite as a church and hear the inspired talks this week. I was thinking about how wonderful it was that no matter where we are in the world, we are united in General Conference. #Godisawesome

Have a kickin' week!
