Happy June everyone!  I hope all of you are enjoying summer!  Sit in the sun and remember me because my summer is already over.  The kids have gone back to school and the rains are about to come down and the floods are about to come up.  And transfers are about to happen.  I’m a little worried.  Not quite ready to grow up and be away from my nanay(mother)!  But it will be ok.  It’s part of the mission experience haha

This week was super super awesome.  We had 10 investigators at church.  Maybe it was because it was Sister Lizada’s last week so God gave us a miracle...but we just sat there watching them come in and smiling bigger and bigger the whole time.  Then of course we were running around like crazy people trying to make sure they all knew where to go and where they were supposed to be.  I wouldn’t have it any other way though hah.  The members have started the last suppers before sister Lizada leaves.  I’ve decided it takes skill to be able to eat two dinners in a row.  Gosh it’s crazy.  And there’s no way to say no.  You just have to smile and do a few jumping jacks so there’s room for more food haha.  It would probably be easier if I didn’t like the food.  But unfortunately I do.  Trials of a sister missionary.  

We also had zone conference this week which was amazing!  It was so fun to get to see everyone and meet more missionaries.  Of course President Tye ended up having to basically herd us all out of there because all we do is just sit and talk forever and just catch up with everyone.  It’s a pretty good time.  It’s crazy because you have good friends in the mission but you only see each other like once a month or longer so you never really get to talk. 

I don’t really have much else that happened this week.  Just work as usual. Another day another dollar.  We had to pay 50 Pesos for a tricycle.  That was ridiculous!  Hah usually its only 8 but this one was "special."  Anyway that’s basically it.  We learned in our mission conference to really strive to recognize the little miracles every day.  So that is my challenge to you.  Strive to see the good in every day and in every person you meet! Next week I’ll write more.  Love you all.  Keep up the good work.  Thanks so much for all the love and the support!  

XOXO
