I'm going to sell these bibles at the pulga tomorrow... Uhhh what?:/

These past few days have been packed full of errands to run. I love staying busy, it makes me feel super accomplished when I am physically and mentally tired at the end of the day. I guess that's a blessing I get from being a missionary. I'll take all the blessings I can get...I'm going to need them haha.

Here is a list of some things that happened this week:$Quarantine shirt- my mija sent me the quarantine shirt our "district" designed last transfer. It looks dope.
$Interviews- President Ocampo did interviews this week that always go really well. Our president is so happy and nice literally all the time. He shows high love but also high expectations for everyone...especially leaders.

$Bibles for the pulga- We got a bible referral that wanted 8 bibles. So we showed up with 8 bibles and she tried telling us that they weren't bibles. We only had spanish new testaments. After 2 minutes of convincing her she told us that they would be perfect and she's going to sell them at the pulga the next day? Excuse me what?? We walked away really confused...she just jipped us. But as we were walking away I saw a pony right across the road just chillin on the side of the road eating grass, living his best life.
$Firestone (X2)- Our car needed an inspection so we had to take it in. We showed up and they told us to come back in an hour and a half . So we did then we waited literally an hour and a half for it to be finished. that was annoying.
$Javier and Jill's gifts (and her interview)- Javier and Jill got us literally baskets full of snacks, nerf guns, gum, chips and dip, you name it. It was the sweetest thing ever...and super yummy. They also brought us BBQ sandwiches. Their love language is definitely gifts and they are so generous and constantly giving us such amazing things. They also got me a mexican shirt and Hna. Donaldson a mexican dress. They are super cool. She also had her baptismal interview and did super well. So hopefully she can find a date to get baptized.
$Our video - I was thinking of some ideas we could do for a cool video. Our video talks about prayer and why it's important. We had a ton of fun doing it. and we had so many bloopers that I made a video out of those when I was done hahaha
$Hank Smith- He spoke to our mission on Friday and his stories are always really funny and always centered on gospel topics. Score!
$Church is opening up soon for the valley- We get to go back to church on the 14th. PUMPED. There are still a lot of restrictions but church is church and I'm tired of being a less-active missionary. haha
$SNMZGN/FHE- We had a little spiritual thought then played charades. Not a lot of members from the zone joined in. So we're brainstorming how we can get more people to join. Any ideas?
$Free doughnuts from Krispie Kreme cashier, he's a homie- This week Krispie Kreme had a national doughnut day for like a week. So we got some free doughnuts and this guy gave us like 2 extra doughnuts for free. We finna baptize this guy.
$Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cookies-This one is pretty self explanatory. I made chocolate chip cookies and added a packet of pistachio pudding. They turned out pretty good actually.
$Members and their baby- We got a call from a member earlier in the week to come help her with a favor. That favor was to literally take three bags of snacks home. Haha a ton of it was cartons of milk from the schools and pizza pocket things. They also had the cutest 4 month old baby. Awwww I miss holding babies so bad. So we snatched a picture with them before we left. That was pretty fun.
$Transfers calls- My compa Hna. Donaldson is going to Laredo. And I'm getting Hna Morgan!!!!!!!!! We were in the same CCM district and Hna. Larsen and I would always hangout with Hna. Morgan and her comp. This is going to be so awesome. I can't wait to see more miracles!!!!

We have some people who were progressing but then stopped answering our calls. So that kind of sucks. But it's okay. There are people out there just waiting to hear the Gospel. People God has prepared. We just have to keep moving forward in faith and hope.
The world is a little crazy right now. But I know God has everything under control. If we ask for his help he'll reach out. He is always there and he hears our prayers. I know that for a fact.

Oh another thing I was going to put was that some really good friends of mine are going home this week. It's sad to see their missions cut short, but God has bigger plans for them now.

I love you guys!!!!

Stay 2 Legit 2 Quit and party hard!
Con todo mi amor,
Hermana Darling
