From Boonies To Ghetto

bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno bueno!!
^ that's how my new district leader answers every call lol


Hello from the ghetto every one! I am absolutely loving my new area! It's definitely an adjustment from what I'm used to haha. I miss the boonies but it's kind of nice not having to drive a half hour between every where we go (like I've been doing my whole mission haha) And now that I'm out of the mountains, it's a ton warmer! Perfect timing
But yeah! We are kind of in the outskirts of big city tucson and it's super ghetto here (besides a couple random really nice parts), but its awesome! The people here are humble and ready to learn! We are super busy even though we only share one ward with another set of elders. 


It was super cool becuase we set a baptismal date on my first night here! She even gave us a ton of her cigarette casings to help her quit smoking! (so of course we took a pic with a couple hehe)...


We also found some really cool new people to teach! My companion hasn't done much tracting on her mission, so I've been showing her the ropes and we have seen so many miracles already! Ah I just love it! 


Also half my new district is spanish speaking so we do spanish training every week! I am so excited!!


I am just so happy and excited to be here and start a new adventure!
Love you all!!!

Tucson, Moms, And Cheese Week

Image
Hello friends! I've had an amazing week!! (besides the dead cockroach in my shoe this morning) The highlight was being able to go to Tucson for my graduation from training!  I got to see allllll my cute friends and have a really good meeting:) I also had a fun dinner with a member in sister curtis's first area. I'm officially not a greenie anymore! Hard to beleive I've been in the field for 12 weeks already!  We also got our transfer cheese! And I found out why it's called transfer cheese! The word for "gossip" in spanish is "chisme" which sounds a lot like cheese so I guess that's where they got it.... but anyways, me and sister curtis are staying!!! So happy to have another transfer with her... I also had a nice call with my cute fam bam yesterday!.. and I think the best part was knowing that I wouldn't have to wait till Christmas to talk to them again haha  Sister curtis and I are pretty lucky to have some good "moms" out her...

I Got To Pet Wolves Today!!

Image
It's been kind of a long week! I got sick on Tuesday and I'm just getting better... but I am glad I didn't get the flu because there is a crazy outbreak here (we had to wear masks when we visited some people at a care facility)  We are the only zone of the mission with day light savings because every one else is in Arizona! So that's kinda weird when we are trying to communicate with other missionaries  This week we did some service and walked dogs at the humane society... and today we got to pet wolves at a wolf sanctuary! It was so cool! There were tons and tons of them and they were super sweet. But! I've been doing well, definitely been a little up and down this week... but I just loveeee reading the book of mormon so much and my testimony grows stronger each day. Its a dang good book :) Getting super excited for Audries baptism on Saturday! She is so awesome!  I also asked someone to get baptized this week! I definitely wasnt planning on asking when we went ove...

hello!  it's been another great week in catalina!! something fun that happened this week is that we had our ward halloween trunk or treat! sister daly & I dressed up as angels and decorated our trunk and handed out smarties! it was so fun! we also met a lot of cool people this week! it was cool because one time we street contacted someone who said he wasnt interested, but as we walked back to our car, he stopped us asking for our number so that he could talk to his wife about having us over! it was so cool! there are so many little miracles every day!  so yeah! things are going well and we are happy happy happy! the only bad thing was my gnarly toe infection hahaha... But! I have been feeling extra grateful this week to be a missionary!
