wowwww your trip looks like it was fun!! I MISS THE BEACH BROOOO. ahhh it looks so nice. but taylors husband is still ugly lol.
haha thats funny that ryan was still remembered at the wedding. i miss the dance floor at weddings bruh i need to throw out my dance moves.
thats funny about the people on the beach. It reminds me a little of brazil lol. Yesterday President said maybe on a pday he would take the staff to a beach here close by. I was like "what??" He was talking super serious, so idk maybe it will actually happen. BUt it would be sick.
Thats so crazy how early abby comes home! shes gonna be bored this summer! she better get to work and make a ton of money!
Our week was good! we found a really good new area to work. We have found some really good people there so far. There was one woman named paula who came to church this week. I think she really liked it and even talked already about coming back in the next week and that she would bring her husband. The sad part is that they arent married legally yet, but its ok cause we'll have some time in this area together. We also found another young guy whos 14 who seems really interested. He wasnt able to go to church this weekend, but he even called us on sunday afternoon telling us sorry and that he was interested in recieving our message. so this week we are gonna teach him and he should be at church this week. The work isnt going as fast as i would like, but its going still and i see that we are still finding really good people. Also the office is going well, president trusts in me a ton. like i can already see that he trusts in me more than the last secretary. Im resolving a lot of problems and its kinda cool actually. You know you are helping the mission in lots of ways. But im still super motivated, happy, and excited to continue working here. i know our success isnt what we want it to be right now, but i know when we continue to show our dedication to the Lords work, he will bless us. I see myself having lots of fruit from this area! We have met a lot of people who seem different to me and really interested.
We also tried something really cool this week. We did a open house at our chapel with the other companship of sisters. We stood outside the church and literally invited EVERYONE to come in and take a tour of the church to see what its like. Cause everyone here has seen our church before, but mostly have never been inside. We recieved lots of no's haha but also we took a few people inside the chapel to teach a little as well and it went super well. We found some really great people.
Also some dude from Alaska who served in Brazil like 20 years ago came to our ward this week and he was pretty cool and he gave me his contact if i ever wanted to go to alaska haha. He is a pilot of those small planes and he said he would show me offroading stuff too haha. So that would be sick. And i think his brother in law has an accounting firm in anchorage lol.
But thats really it. It was a quieter week. Tomorrow we have a multizone conference with president and next tuesday we will be going to the temple and the new visitors center. Actually i went to the church headquarters this week for a training and it was pretty sweet i took a quick pic with the statue of jesus christ i will send it too you. and i met a dime brazilian who is serving in the visitors center haha.
But anyways, love you so much mom! Thank you for all you do. Miss you!
