What a crazy week. Last week I made it to McAllen safely. The day after we got here we met our trainers. Mine is Hermana Bennett she's from California. And she's on her last transfer. People tell me I'm killing her. Which sounds horrible haha. She super funny and we both laugh at everything so it's perfect. We are white washing Brownsville. This is literally the first time this ward has had Hermanas. So some are happy others are not. But it's all good.
Okay, we were trying to figure out a good name for our car. So we're sitting there thinking and we both said Barnard right at the same time...twas perfect. There is a road Barnard but our car Wi-Fi needed one more letter so then we got Barnard.
Oh when we got to our apartment...it was trashed. The Elders didn't clean anything for us. They even told us that when we were with everybody. But it was worse then I expected. Nasty. But it definitely looks way better.
The humidity is great here. Warm towel... My favorite. I haven't burned yet so that's a phat blessing. 😊
Holy cow! There are so many things the missionaries do here that make me cringe. Oh I love them to death... But dabbing is dead. It died... 2 years ago. Haha also the word lit isn't used like at all. It hilarious. I turned to Hermana Sill when we first got here and told her I hope we don't act like this when we get farther in the mission. 😂
I love the people of Brownsville already! We already have to baptism dates set. Our mission is the most baptizing mission in the United States. It's crazy. The people are super nice and patient with my Spanish. Thank goodness. It's pretty sketchy in some parts as well. We literally pass the bridge that crosses people from USA to México. We also saw the backyard of a house and the fence to the border is her backyard fence. It was crazy.
The heat is getting bearable and we haven't taken a bike day yet. But every Wednesday we're taking our bikes. Wish me luck.
I love being a missionary. Yeah I've been in the field for a week, but that doesn't matter. We keep trying to find all these people that we feel we need to talk to but they aren't home. But you can tell when people are truly interested and they really do want to draw closer to their Savior and Father in Heaven. I know he's there and I know he loves all of us. We just need to take the first few steps and he'll help us.
If there is any questions you have or anything you need. I'm an email away. 😊
I love y'all!!
Stay 2 Legit 2 Quit, be an example of Jesus Christ in everything you do.
