I had a dream 1/1/25

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I actually can't believe it's already 2025, the mission is actually a time warp cause to me it feels like 2024 just never happened. But I'm so grateful for everything I've learned throughout this year, I seriously wouldn't trade it for anything. Getting to talk about Jesus all day every day for 365 days is pretty great. Some highlights: Intercambios with the hermanas in Bell Ville!! ☆ Coke ☆ Found a fun little sunflower patch! I   Oncativo  ☆ Had quite the adventure getting to dinner last night! A huge storm hit right as we needed to start walking there, the power went out, the streets became rivers, and the only light around was the huge lightning bolts   But we knew there was an asado waiting for us, so we put on some pants, tucked our dresses into our coats and got walking!  ☆ It was so worth it ☆ What's the only logical solution when the power goes out? Tape your phone to the ceiling, duh. ☆ The Sarmiento family>>>> Love you...

FELIZ NAVIDAD!!!  Some highlights from the week: ☆ POV: us outside your door hiding in the shade waiting for you to answer  ☆ Went to Rio Segundo for district council and got absolutely drenched ☆ Left a note for some members! Their window was open, so we turned it into a paper airplane and threw it inside! ☆ Last night we had dinner with some members! It was basically the Christmas dinner from every movie ever, the crazy aunt who doesn't stop bringing up controversial topics, the cute little grandma, the dad who's fed up with everyone's crap, and the kids who are just there for the show! It was the best!!! Some quotes without context: • Ey yo, flaca divina • I actually do not have eyeballs • No creo en papá Noel ni nada de eso • No soy testigo pero.. • Tengo un hijo de 8 años, el reza. Pueden hacerlo con el? • Es de la presidente de la nación de argentina • Yo le pegaria a este • She is not a pickleball player • El grinch era más amable que vos • YO LO VI A JESUS HACE POCO...

Hey I'm back! But I procrastinated this again so sorry but this weeks emails gonna be short and sweet :) Some highlights from the week!!  We found this little old lady named Lucia who's the sweetest ever, she came to church on Sunday and accepted a baptismal date! ☆ Helped a family set up their pool ☆Got absolutely drenched in a massive storm. Everyone was telling us all day long that a big storm was coming, and did we listen? Of course not.  ☆ We had a special Christmas conference which was so good!  ☆ For the annual Christmas talent show our zone did a live nativity, the elders were very committed to their roles  ☆ WENT TO THE TEMPLE!!!  ☆ After the temple we went over to the mission home while we waited for our bus! President Zanni was home alone, so he cooked us up some eggs! We also got transfer news and Hermana Smith and I are staying together here in Oncativo! I can't wait to keep loving and serving all the amazing people here, especially during this Chri...

Some highlights from the week: ☆ We gave a Book of Mormon to one of our friends! When we asked her if she had read what we had left her she responded with this!! (basically saying that it made her want to keep reading more!)  ☆ Mamá Zanni ☆ Thanksgiving and leadership council! Had pepperoni pizza for lunch (a rare find in Argentina) And talked a lot about how important it is to work with members!! ☆ Thanksgiving call with the fam!! So grateful for them!!  ☆ Got a little wet  ☆ Me when I got My Plan today ☆ We decided to save some money and take the train instead of the bus to Córdoba today, 10/10 experience. Would highly recommend ☆This week we also had 4 friends at church!! One of them was a red point that I had found my last transfer here, she stopped us in the street this week so we invited her to church and she actually pulled up! She even got up and bore her testimony, and during sunday school suggested that we watch the movie Avatar in church  Recently I've bee...
