Nos Fidjos

4/15/2019

Fam Bam,

Whelp, the mission carries on ever so fast and confusing as usual. Haha, this last week we had a baptism planned but when we showed up at his house on monday he had a giant black eye, a bandage on his head and three stitches! I guess some kid threw a rock at him when they were playing. *facepalm* He can't get that bandage wet and it won't be taken off til this week.  We postponed his baptism but it's actually turning out really good because now it looks like he'll be baptized the same day as two of his friends :) also, it was the cutest because then he told us about how all the other kids were saying he should throw a rock back at that one kid but he told them that he'd read a verse in the Book of Mormon that says we need to forgive people of their offenses :') I had such a proud mama moment, he's such a smart and amazing kid!!! It feels like all these people that we teach are our children because we have such an amazing opportunity to bring them the gospel and watch them learn and grow and you can't help but just love them all so so much.

Os Eleitos Estao Chegando

4/1/2019

Queridos,

Man I don't even know where to start this week!

New transfer has been crazy, the work here in Palmarejo keeps getting more and more crazy and busy. There's moments when I feel like I just don't know how were going to able to do it all, but it's all in the Lord's hands and l understand now more than ever that this is his work, when we give our all and turn it over to him to guide us, literal miracles will happen. The mission is honestly so unreal and amazing, and low-key (high-key) exhausting, but worth it de mas.
