Start off the week, still stuck in quarantine. Still have been staying busy. My dad showed me this super cool thing in the gospel app that helps you understand the scriptures more. Holy crap. It has completley changed the way I study and I have learned so much more than I thought I would’ve. We taught a lesson about the plan of salvation to a lady who lost her father to covid and she was super sad but told us she really needed that call. So we’ve had a few lessons with her since and pretty funny she prays for me and ask’s the lord to help me learn more spanish hahaha. We have also been teaching a single mother with three kids. She is so awesome and understands everything we’ve taught her and shes kept up on what we have invited her to read. She’s awesome!!
Made enchiladas this week and they were straight fuego! Literally… We made them (thanks for my awesome mother for sending me what to do) although we were told to put wayyy to much chilli powder then was told and holy crap it was spicy. I thought it was super good but my comp was not diggin it lol. The food this week has been amazing. The members literally fed us everyday during quarantine. The food was so good too!
Friday deserves it’s own paragraph. Holyyyy Crapppp friday was so crazy and random but so good. Start off the day we got a call and they told us we don’t have to quarantine anymore!! Then we had a fire district council and learned alot. After that my comp was in the bathroom and Im just chillen in my chair looking out the window of our apartment. There was these two older kids kinda yelling at these to younger kids and I was so confused why and then all of the sudden behind one of the A/C things theres this flame that appears and then this little old lady ran behind the A/C unit and basically grabbed whatever was on fire and through it into the middle between the two apartments and then ran back inside so I grabbed my water bottle and ran out there and sprayed down this bag that was on fire. So weird and random. But basically the two little kids had been playing with a lighter. Lesson learned here dont play with fire hahaha. Then literally everyone we called today answered us!! Then mama jules pulled up clutch with the dominos pizza!!! That was amazing. Right after that we got to go watch coco with our ward in the church parking lot. Anddd… we didnt have a car or anything so we straight up rolled our office chairs all the way to the church hahahaha. It was hilarious. Then this crazy little old lady came up to us and straight up roasted me about my spanish hahah. Basically she said for every word I dont know in spanish I have to pay her a dollar. She is straight up like 4 feet tall on the dot she is so little. Her feet were so small hahah. During the movie she came up to me with a bottle of hot sauce and told me to open my hand. She literally filled my whole hand with hot sauce and told me to drink it! She basically said this is what we do in mexico. She spilled it all over my pants and shoes and I also had just opened my soda and that spilled on me hahaha. The she proceeds after I had licked all sauce from my hand grabs my popcorn and puts the sauce all over my popcorn. Mind the sistrict and my comp are just sitting their laughing at me. BUT that popcorn was straight fire with the hot sauce in it. Crazy fun day hahahah hope you enjoyed that.
My saturday morning was so weird. My neighbors are so weird. During my personal studies this dude full on sprints across our window like randomly and then five minutes later he comes back and stands in front of our door and just stares at me through our window then proceeds to walk across to the other side of our window and cuts across behind one of our bushes. Then I see his hand come back into view and he breaks off two branches takes them and then leaves hahaha SO random.
We had two devotionals this week that were for the houston area. One was with Elder Soarres of the quorum of The Twelve Apostles in spanish it was super cool!! It was like a face to face where we asked questions. Let me tell you all, the gift of tongues is real. I went into the devotional thinking I wasn’t going to understand anything. I understood most all of it which I was so suprised. One of my fav parts about it was actually he shared the only scripture I have memorized in spanish which Is D&C 82:10 and then talked about that and said God knows our intentions, the scriptures were laid before us to guide us through our lifes (Idk if thats what he said exactly but for the most part I think thats what he said). Alot of the devotional I think was about the scriptures and how important they are. Which they seriously are. I have learned to love reading from the scriptures. They are full of so much wisdom. He also said as missionaries we are to “invitar, invitar, invitar”. Such a cool expeirence, the devotional was amazing. I invite all of you to make time to read the scriptures everday even if its just a verse a day!
Id love to hear how all of you are doing! Feel free to shoot me an email if you want!!
