August 12, 2024: Spiders and Service

 Bon dia!!! ☀️ Como está todo?! 


This week was packed with service and intercambios! I love the chance I get to serve with so many sisters and learn from them! I was able to serve in two different areas here in Sabadell and it was amazing! 

We helped a member clean his garden in the middle of nowhere for service and it was super fun except for the fact that a GIANT spider landed right on my shirt and no one would help me get it off! So I just closed my eyes and waited to die at that point until finally someone slapped it off! 

Then we got to do service at a dog shelter and I was in heaven! I love dogs so much and we got to spend so much time playing with them! My compañera Hermana Weiler found at least five giant spiders while cleaning out a shed and I decided to keep my distance. 

At the end of the week we had a huge miracle with our amiga Terresa!! Terresa just moved here from Peru three weeks earlier and we began teaching here! She was so prepared since the beginning and has been through so many trials! As we began to share the Gospel with her she could feel a difference and wanted to have this peace and joy forever! This week we invited her to be baptized and she accepted the date to be baptized on the 24th of Agusto!! We could not be more excited for her and the impact this will have on her life! 

Another big milestone this week I hit 13 meses and I'm freaking out! So everyone pray that time will go slower because time is going way too fast! Anyway, love you all so much! Praying for you always!

November 25, 2024: My Heart if Full

Image
  Well this is it, my last mission email!! Time has flown by. I can't believe my mission is coming to an end this week!  I don't want to make this too long but I just want to write a few words of gratitude! Over these 18 months I have truly been changed! I have seen miracles happen every single day and through the Lord and his work I have been so blessed! I have loved every minute of meeting people from all over the world in Salt Lake City and Barcelona Spain! My mission means everything to me and the people that I have met have changed me!  Most importantly I have come to know my Savior Jesus Christ! I know he lives, he loves us! Everything that he did was for us and the immense love he has! He is my greatest example and my best friend! I know he has walked with me through every phase of my mission! I want to be better because of him but more often than not he has been there to pick me up when I fall!  I love my Heavenly Father and truly have felt his love for me on...

November 4, 2024: Prayers for Valencia

Image
  Hola!!! These past two weeks have been crazy! There has been major flooding in Valencia and in Catarroja which was my first area here in Spain! My heart goes out to all of the people that I know and love!! Please pray for the sweet people of Valencia they need your prayers! The work here in Sabadell has been pretty normal besides all the rain which leads to plenty of canceled lessons but we are still going strong!  We have found a few new families in our area and they are progressing so well! First is Precious and here two boys! They are from Nigeria and we get to teach this sweet family in English which is quite a change for me! The first time we met with this sweet family we taught 3 Nefi 11 and they loved it! Precious started tearing up as she shared who Jesucristo was to her! One of her little boys was listening to the lesson with wide eyes fully engaged! I showed him a small painted card of Christ coming to the Americas to show him that Christ is our resurrected Savior!...
