Sahagún

 Hey guys, happy Mother's Day!


This week I got transferred to Sahagún 2 with Elder Evans! He was in my MTC district and I'm really excited. Sahagun is a smaller town and we are still in the coast, so this will be super fun and hot, haha.


Elder Hellwig, Elder Evans, and Luke



This past week I had exchanges with Elder Davis and I got attacked by an iguana! Well kind of. We went to lunch at a little outdoor restaurant and an iguana came running up to me and stopped like 2 feet from me. I jumped up and courageously shooed him away with a chair. Or maybe I might have yelled, "Hermana Maira (our friend who works at the restaurant), what do I do? What do I do??" That might have happened too though, I can't remember very well. It all just happened so fast.

*NOT the iguana that startled Luke, but one in a video he shared previously.  Seems fitting to add it here. :) 



We also planned the wards activity and made it about Mother's Day! I shared with the ward about how my mother is the best and her nick name is "Nikki la cabra." We then played a game that involves a secret key indicator between the "guesser" and the leader and while I wasn't looking everyone would pick 1 of 9 books and I would guess the right one every time.  The point of the game was for the people to try to figure out the key and come up and guess to see if they got it. It's pretty fun! Afterwards all the members begged for us to tell them how it works, haha.

Pictures from the week and saying goodbye to members in the ward.  Video attached playing the piano:

















Alma 13:27-28 "And now, my brethren, I wish from the inmost part of my heart, yea, with great anxiety even unto pain, that ye would hearken unto my words, and cast off your sins, and not procrastinate the day of your repentance; 28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear, and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering"

Stake Conference and Last Transfer

Image
  What's up homies. Ya so these past 2 weeks were pretty good but also weird. We had stake conference and also zone conference with Prez and the wifey. Stake conference was fun-ish, just a long 2-hour meeting haha. But they had some good messages. But my comp and I were super tired and slept through a few talks, but we were hidden in the corner so don't worry about it.  But ya also we had the zone conference.  That was fun but also strange to think that I only have one left! It was great, talking about setting goals and that the Lord is speeding up the work and we need to as well.  President announced some big changes in our mission, which will really make it like a normal mission but it's gonna be very different. For example, we have district council at 6pm on pday. So we don't work at all on pday. Now it's gonna be on Tuesday morning so we can work at 6 on pday. We also are now supposed to be out of the house by 10 in the morning! I'm really happy about that o...

Party Week

  Hey y'all how's it going. So this week was another good one! We had 2 family home evenings this week and both had a lot of friends and fun games. One was with the family Varon, mafe, los elderes, Alex and Andrea, and Helmer on Friday. Then on Sunday night we were with Maribel y Sebastian, family Varon, Nancy and her kids, and Diana y Johnny. Both super fun!!  Also on Sunday we moved houses because the rent in the house we live in is going up a ton this month, so we are switching it up. Although we were very busy, we didn't end up moving our stuff until around 10:30 at night lol. The new house is nice, with a pretty fancy couch. Our bedroom is nice cuz we have a big window that gets good airflow, natural light to make it easy to wake up, and a decent view!  But ya other than that just your average week here. We had almost all of the recent converts in our area come to church, and 2 new people! Like I said, they are willing to come once but for some reason they don't co...

We Good

  Howdy there partner. This week was a good one, just working hard to get people to come to church and get baptized so that they can recieve more joy and peace in their lives through Jesus Christ. And this week was pretty good! We had 4 people come to church this week, and most importantly Carolina came and she has a baptismal date for June 29th! Imma miss it by a few days but it's chill. But ya it was a good week. We had a fun little activity on Friday and it rained so not many people came but we had some friends pull up and we shared about how to prepare for the second coming and the book of Mormon helps us a ton. Then we played a little game and that was fun. Then had a small treat and headed home.  Also I've been enjoying a lot more fast food this past week. I've only got a few more weeks to enjoy the delicious salchipapa and buñuelos so I'm trying to live it up. We had a little family night with the family Paniagua Diaz and that was fun. Shared a video from the chu...
