Tuesday: this was transfer day also super crazy baiscsg the whole mission came to the Church (not really though cause there's like a thousand of us) and then went their different ways.
Wednesday: districr council then we did some Facebook finding and yea I had my first member lesson this night! It was awesome and they made me feel right at home and made us cookies so that was amazing!
Thursday: umm more Facebook finding haha then we got to go do some service and work on building some homes, and then we went to the branches mutual at the park so that was dope to get out! Then we also taught a English class today and it was kinda hard but also a good time!
Friday: service again today! I love it so much it's from 8 - 12 on Thursdays and Fridays and after we got pizza and doughnuts so yea!! Then more finding and we called some people but this lady told us that she was already saved so we were like okay and yea
Also on Friday night we had a zoom with the mission and we got set back to pre pre phase 1 whi h basically means I'm quarantined haha because some missionarys have covid then transfers happened so we just being safe
Saturday: umm we had a lesson over zoom! That was great then we did more Facebook finding and played lots of phase 10!
Sunday! We still got to go to church still and I had to bear my testimony IN SPANISH!! haha I bet they were all like who's this gringo but it was fine haha
Okay wow hopefully you got through all that haha umm I just wanna say missions are hard but totally worth it!! I have loved devoting 4 hours of my day each day to studying the gospel then the rest to teaching it!!
