07/25/22 Missionary Blessings and a Birthday Party and YES I'm still sick thank u for asking

HELLO!!  The week as always went by very quickly, and yet it  feels   like  there are a million things to tell. Time is really weird as a missionary, because the  MTC , for  example ,  feels   like   100   years   ago , but it's shocking to think 3 months has passed since I started my mission! And at the same time  last Monday  feels   like  it was just here, but last Tuesday  feels   like  it happened an eternity  ago . I don't know, I can't really explain it, but it is what it is!!  So here we goooo- -Monday night we picked Hermana Perez and she is SO funny, I love her si o si!! My voice was pretty raspy that day but I didn't feel sick... I had felt sick the previous week so I thought it was leftovers of that.  -Tuesday we had a lesson with our two niñas who are 10 and 11, and they were really cute and excited to learn. After that we had a lesson with another niña who was 8 (she turned 9 on sunday) and it also went really well!!  -Wednesday I made banana bread and we

ok I don't have a lot of time  -Tuesday we went to antofa and met the president and it was a good time  -Wednesday we didn't get completos, but we did have empanadas  -Thursday we had had lessons and they went well!!  -Friday we had lessons and our gospel principles class and our less active friend came (long story short he's been inactive for like 4 years)  -Saturday we had lunch with the stake president and our less active friend came to that as well, and then we had to say goodbye to hna mcconaghie because she's going home, which was super sad but were happy for her of course! And then we were in a trio for the rest of the weekend. We also got transfer calls and contrary to what I thought before, we get to keep elders in our ward!! But our Elder  Perez  is going to Alto Hospicio so we had to say goodbye to him today (monday) -Sunday we went to church in the ward of our third hermana in our trio because she had a lot going on... and while we weren't there  one  of

Holaaaa  This week was a lot of things... but mostly busy!  Monday and Tuesday were missionary work as normal, except the other hermanas had a leadership conference in antofa so we had the apartment to ourselves all day and I  made   my  *first*  batch  of  brownies  (they turned out ok) for the week, and I also tried to make eclairs but they absolutely did not work at all... oh well!  -Wednesday we got completos :)  we also had district council and I bought a hoodie because I didn't bring one, que vergüenza. And in the evening we went to this little old lady's house and had bread and muffins and tea, she's a real sweetheart!  - Thursday  i  made   my  * second *  batch  of  brownies  for hna smith's one year mark woooo... andwe had a bunch of stuff fall through but we went over the baptismal interview with Billy and he bore his testimony and it was so powerful!!! He seemed so ready to get baptized and the gospel was really working miracles in his life-he was feeling mo

Holaaaa!  I'm gonna do this a little differently... here's this week's highlights!  -Tuesday we went to Antofa for a conference and to say  goodbye  to  presidente   y   hermana   Larsen !! I got to see the Hermanas who picked me up at the airports and met a bunch of people who maybe I'll talk to again later and maybe not!! We had pizza which is a super important detail, and on the bus we watched Cars and another movie I can't remember what it's called. Overall a good time.  -Wednesday we got completos :)  -Thursday we had a zone FHE and we were in charge! We also had a super long phone call with our friend Billy and got him set up to be baptized on the 16th... and we think this time is different and is not gonna fall through    -Friday we had a gospel principles class... but no one showed up, including the teacher... so then when one person did show up, us and the Elders taught her the 4th lesson in preparation for her baptism... she is soooo elect, and so smar
