I 'm gonna be so honest, this week has been exhausting and pretty tough! Our super amazing friend Jesús who was going to be baptized on Sunday, passed away Saturday night. This was so hard and super sad. My comp and I went from missionaries to translators for the family in two seconds! Only one doctor in this St. Louis hospital spoke Spanish, and my comp doesn't know much Spanish outside of Gospel related Spanish. So I had to translate everything the doctors were saying over his case to about...

Maru is so sweet and she's gonna teach us how to bedazzle denim bags with us this week!  St Louis Missouri April 2024 Another week down whoop whoop!  Y'all this week was so exciting, seriously! Tuesday was the best day ever!!! After a pretty sad weekend of so many lessons falling through we actually had 5 confirmed lessons on Tuesday! So it was crazy, but awesome!! Also..I feel like I can finally introduce you to two of our friends. I have been hesitant because last time I introduced Jean Carlos and Frangeny in the email they started ghosting us a couple days later.. but officially our friend Jesus has a firm date to be bapti...

St Louis Missouri April 2024 Hiii y'all! happiest of p-days! I can not believe another week down! I think it's finally warming up in mizzou but I'm not too sure anymore.  It's very bipolar.. the beginning of this week was 45 degrees then this past weekend it was 90 degrees! I am so excited for this warm weather. I hate the cold! Especially knocking doors in the cold, but it was a good tactic for people to let us in. First off the eclipse!!! It was so cool. We drove to Illinois to get into the 100 % total coverage zone and it was awesome! It got super dark, and super cold here, and it was such a cool experience! Our mission presid...

St Louis, Missouri March 2024 HIII Y'ALL!!! Happiest of P-days everyone! this week has been wild, happy, stressed, and very blessed! St. Louis puts me through all of the emotions! In the mornings I wake up and it's dark out and I just want to stay in bed, but we get up at 6:30 and we go exercise. And guys.. I have been running. My comp runs like everyday, so in my competitive mind it's been forcing me to run just as long. (It's good peer pressure) If you know me, you know I hate to run, but I have grown to love it! It's probably cause I'm on my mission though, it'll probably fade. (Jk hopefully not) This week Hermana Larsen and I have been prioritizin...
