  wsg yall  this week was a pretty slow week and we werent able to get much missionary work done because i also was sick at the start of this week. We were able to help our progressing people and they are doing well progressing towards baptism.  This week we got an online reference and visited a 19 year old muchacho. We gave him a book of mormon and invited him to church and he came!! We then visited his family that night and his mom asked us, "ok, why are you here? whats your message?" the mom wasnt willing to listen at first. Eventually we started with a prayer and we started teaching them about the book of mormon and Joseph Smith. When we were explaining our message I was filled with the spirit and felt like abinadi talked to king noah and the wicked priests (from the book of mormon) Every question she asked me I was able to answer with confidence and I knew that they felt the spirit and that our message helped them. We ended and they said we could come back ...

 This past week was awesome! We were able to put a family of 3 on date for baptism and they all agreed! We invited them to church and the mom told us she had to buy things and that she wouldn't have time. We then explained that you have to go to church 3 times in order to get baptized . She thought a little bit and then said, "ok, i'll go" I was filled with the spirit and it was really cool to see how much the moms testimony has grown and her commitment to go to church and put other things behind.  I hit 11 months on the mission which is pretty crazy. The year mark is super close and I feel like time has been going super slow when I think about hitting the year mark lol. This transfer has also flown by and we have transfers this week. My companion and I think we are going to stay another transfer together.  This email is gonna be a little short this week because I don't have too much time but I love you all so much! Feel free to reach out to me at any time. (I l...

 What's up everyone! I hope you have all had an amazing week!  Ok lets get started. The beginning of this week was pretty fun! We had a conference with Elder Pino, he is a general 70. He talked to us a lot about our missionary purpose and how when we signed our name and became missionaries, we are all in and we promised to follow all the rules and truly focus on our mission purpose.  This week as well we were able to make a lot of progress with 2 people we are teaching. We have taught them almost everything and now we need to wait for them to receive an answer to see if baptism is the right step for them 🙏  Spiritual Thought: Moroni 7:40-41  40 And again, my beloved brethren, I would speak unto you concerning hope. How is it that ye can attain unto faith, save ye shall have hope?  41 And what is it that ye shall hope for? Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection, to be raised unto life ...

  Yoo wsg yall! I hope you all have had a good week this past week.  This past Tuesday we had exchanges and I went on exchanges with an Elder from Mexico. It was super fun only talking in Spanish all day again lol. I found out he used to be in a mariachi band and he taught me how to play a song called "Fuentes de Ortiz" on the guitar.  This past Thursday we had a super good teaching day. We left with 3 different members at different times during the day and none of our lessons fell through!  Ok now for the title of the email, if you get grossed out by sicknesses or bodily fluids do NOT read this next part.  (Message to my trainer) Elder Anderson, I didn't believe the stories of the double headed dragon were real and I thought they were myths. Oh boy was I wrong.  Saturday night we ate a lot of food. We ate lasagna and I had like 4-5 slices of pizza. That being said, I woke up at 4:30 Sunday morning feeling super sick. I was in and out of the bathroom having...
