Imma tell President that today because I want to go there so bad!! •our friend Ysabel went to a ward activity and she loved it! She's slowly growing her testimony <3 •we were in a lesson in a park and ALL four of us got pooped on my birds...rip •I'm a clutz...I totally fell off a chair and now I have a huge bruise on my arm and i was bleeding a little bit on the back of my heel.Good thing I wore pants this day hehe •went to the beach again!!

What's up yall?? Well this has been an eventful past week :) here are some highlights: •went to huaca del sol y la luna for pday with the district! It was super cool. We think it was built when the nephites and lamanates were there. One of the elders said, "ahorita, tengo un testimonio del libro de mormon" •lost electricity for 5 days. We had to take a cold shower with flashlights •moved apartments with hardly any warning. We kicked the elders out of the apartment so today we will be cleaning jeje •we had a lesson with Katherine on the temple grounds and it was sooo good. She didn't accept her baptismal invitation but she said she'll pray about it. She came to church yesterday and even brought a friend. Pray for her! •went to the temple with some missionaries to do a session. The peace in the temple is amazing! It's amazing that the road is so busy and loud and then you get onto the temple grounds it's quiet and peaceful  •visited some amazing families! We...

Holaaaa!!!  Mon-went to the mission home! Played games with the district and made cookies with President and Sister Hiatt!! We ate papa John's, cookies and root beer floats with orange Fanta! The orange fanta here hits different :)) SO MUCH FOOD!! Love my district #distritobuenosaires Had a lesson with Talia and maryori. We watched the Restoration with her and it was so good. We could feel the spirit. Pray that she can know Joseph Smith was a prophet. Tues-woke up with body aches and I was fevering pipipi but we persevered. Had a lesson with a member who definitely lived out of area and maybe the elders area too but she's still in our ward so it's okay. It was fun taking a little hike while your dizzy and not feeling so well. Our other appointment fell through and that's basically the day.... Wed-i wasn't fevering but I was still dizzy and had pain. Had district council wuujuuu!! We learned about the importance of members in missionary work and also practiced teachi...

Overpriced Souvenirs

Mon-Went to the center of Trujillo! Bought some overpriced souvenirs that were still cheap for US. Went to the church and played Peru monopoly with the district! Had a lesson with Yngris and shes so adorable. Tues-Multizone conference!! I saw all my buddies, I miss them. We did ALOT of roleplays and it's always super stressful but it was actually really cool. As missionaries we are given authority to teach about Christ's gospel, we need to use this authority and be confident when we testify of Jesus Christ! Had a birthday party with Maryori in the church and set off the fire alarm lol but it was a party! Wed-nothing much happened this day. I don't really remember hehe sorry  Thurs-knocked some doors and found this cute 11 year old girl named Joselyn. Her parents don't believe in God but she wants to so hopefully we can teach her. We had a lesson with Katherine and taught her the Plan of Salvation. We started exchanges and Hermana Baird from Eagle came here :)  Fri-the B...
