Matchmakers 4/28/25

WhatsApp everyone! (That was autocorrected but I like😏)


Well, this week was an awesome week! Spent most of it helping our friends Thiago, Paloma, y Juan get baptized! In the end they all passed the interview and were ready to make their first covenant with God! They were so happy after and were beaming with the light of Christ!


* also, a little 6 year old girl in our ward secretly told the pianist she wanted to sing Gethsemani as a musical number, and they pulled it off without telling everyone. It was adorable and the spirit was so strong, after she said "Haha, I made the whole WORLD cry!"😂🤣🥲🕊

Also, when we were preparing one of our very recent converts for her baptism, we suggested a YSA to baptize her, and then they went to FSYSA together and now they are dating🫠 I guess me and my comp are matchmakers. She posts about him on her WhatsApp story on the daily it's unbearable.😂

That's about it for this week, successfully finished the transfer with 3 pictures and 0 journal entries😅 (sorry mom)

One of my favorite talks is by Brad Wilcox, "Worthiness is not Flawlessness". I love this quote:

"God loves us as we are, but He also loves us too much to leave us this way"

I love this quote because it shows that the circumstances of our lives are not punishments from God, nor obstacles to keep us from Him, but opportunities to grow and become more like Him. Through the Savior we can overcome all the trials that come our way, and can be made better for them!

Love you all, send me an email, I'd love to hear how you're doing!😁

Sloppy Joe's and Baptism 10/1/24

Hola amigos what's good in the hood of wherever you find yourself? I'm still in Argentina and it's getting lit up in here. Literally. It's starting to get hotter and my fear of the 125 degree summer is ever present. But it's also getting 'lit' like slang wise. We had a baptism this week! Her name is Florencia, and she is 15. We worked with her almost every day this week to help her pass the interview and she did! It was super exciting and awesome to see her follow the Savior and be baptized. A member named Americo (he's super dope) baptized her. Here's a picture that we forgot to be in!! (I promise they were happy) Elder Cook also cooked Sloppy Joe's for after the baptism, and they were super good but it was hilarious because the members absolutely fien over them and it's hilarious to hear them try to say it! We've been playing fùtbol every Friday night and the locals call me "speed" in a very funny accent because of my skills (...

First Email! 7/24/24

Hola everybody! My first 2 and a half weeks as a missionary have been awesome! Being a missionary is something so different from what I am used to, but its special and I love it!  Home MTC was más o menos to say the least. It was good but it definitely made me excited to be here in the CCM (Mexico MTC) :) Being in person is so much better, I'm actually not sure how I made it through Covid. The CCM is great! I love it here, my teachers are hilarious, and my district is awesome! And the food is way better than people make it out to be. Every once in a while you'll get something like mushy corn dogs that just make me feel weird inside but I figured out the cilantro lime ranch can pretty much carry any meal, especially with some tajin lime watermelon on the side! My Spanish is coming along (or at least I thought it was). Yesterday we had to pull an audible and teach 3 15 year old teenagers from Mexico. In Spanish. Without a plan or lesson. For 15 minutes. I accidentally asked them ...

Feliz Navidad 12/26/24

Hello everyone! Holy cow it's Christmas look at that This Christmas was epic to say the least. I stayed the night with some totally rad Elders last night, got to call my family in the morning, hung out with my zone, played some card games, ate an asado, watched the Chosen and the Best 2 Years (with permission).  This past week has been crazy, I got transfered to Valle de Uco, and it's sooo pretty. The Andes Mountains are my favorite. My area is the smallest in the mission and everyone is from Bolivia. Also there are more dogs than people. So we're having tons of fun, my new comp Elder Contreras is from Chile and he's hilarious, we are laughing half the time and having tons of fun working hard. Spending Christmas as a missionary is the weirdest feeling but something so satisfying it's hard to explain. I know I'm making a sacrifice and it's sad to be away from family and friends (all of you ), but that sadness is filled with an immeasurable amount of joy in my...
