Tienen una sopapa? 11/13/23

 This week we learned what a sopapa is! And that we don't own one!! 🤠 but you'll have to email me directly to get that story 🥳! 


This week was soo good!! We made lot's of new friends, and got to go to a couple of other little pueblos this week and visit with some inactive members!! We talked to this guy named Juan Carlos, who isn't a member, but gave us a TON of references of people to talk to, and gave us a whole bag full of pastries!! We also got back in contact with Agus, our friend who's had a few different baptismal dates before but hasn't ever been ready. After a super powerful talk with him, we put him on date again so pray for him to be ready this time!!


Some highlights/pics:

  • LUIS GOT HIS MISSION CALL 🥳🙀🥹🤟

  • We had intercambios this week which was a party!! Neither of us knew where we were going, but we made it work! 

  • I've officially been converted to Coke! I don't know if it's different here or if I've just already adapted to life without Dr Pepper, but it's so good 🤤

  • Today we're in Villa General Belgrano which is actually just a mix of Germany, Switzerland, and a little bit of Argentina. The amount of statues of men holding beer is actually wild 


Spiritual thought:

This week we've been telling all of our friends that Thanksgiving is coming up, and inviting them to focus on being grateful this month. So that's something I've really been focusing on too!! During my personal study I reread the talk Hallmarks of Happiness by Elder Gary B. Sabin and LOVED this quote!! 

  • “We are surrounded by innumerable blessings that we can easily take for granted if we are not mindful. Conversely, when nothing is expected and everything is appreciated, life becomes magical”

I challenge all of you to really focus on being grateful this month!! Gratitude really can make life magical!! 


Have the best week!!

Holaa todos! So sorry I had no time to write an email last week so here's just a quick update on the last little bit! Played soccer for p-day for the first time in my mission. I may have gotten a little bit competitive!  Had Zone conference!! It was so good! We talked all about becoming/helping others become lifelong disciples of Christ! Plus I got to see my bestie Hermana Jensen! We're still praying for the day we get to be comps! LIDIA GOT BAPTIZED!! I mean it when I say that Lidia is the most kind, loving, selfless person I've ever met! She's become our mom here in San Fran and I just love her so much!  Had zone p-day in Arroyito! Played some more soccer, ate some churi pan and played some Uno! Plus I bought the sickest shorts, son buenísimo  Celebrated Hermana Mascarenhas’ birthday!! The members here are so precious and surprised her with a birthday cake! Went to visit one of our friends and they had a little baby pig! It even had a little sweater! I have literally ...

Hola everyone!! This weekend was seriously full of miracles!! Friday night we went to visit Nadia and Miguel (our recent converts) and Miguel's son was there! They had been telling him about the plan of salvation, and he wanted to know more! So we taught him all about God's plan for us, and it went so good!! Then the next night we went to visit them again and another one of Nadia's sons was there!! I literally had Deja Vu. We taught him all about the plan of salvation and how we're here to be happy! He said he's gonna come to church next week with Nadia!! Literally loco!!  And the biggest miracle of all!!! ANA AND GABI'S PAPERS CAME!!! Ana and Gabi are our friends who have been waiting for months for Ana's birth certificate to come so that they can get married and get baptized! Gabi is the older brother of Luis, who starts his mission next monday, so we've been praying that the papers would come before Luis leaves. But not gonna lie, we were starting to ...
