Missionary Chronicles: La Natividad Viva

Hola a todos! How was everyone's week? I hope y'all had a fantastic week full of miracles and time with family! Before I get into the email I want to give a birthday shout out to my little Sister Ashtynn!! She turned 4 this past week which is absolutely crazy! Time really does fly! This week was pretty good here in Georgia! We had a huge mission Christmas Gathering on Tuesday at transfers! It was super awesome to see all of my old comps and mission friends! I was asked to play a musical number to open up the devotional part and that went really well! I wrote up an arrangement of La Primera Navidad/Jesús en Pesebre/Cantan Santos Angeles. Everybody seemed to really enjoy it! Also at transfers, we got to meet our new greenie! Her name is Hermana Fitzhugh and she's super cute! She got to go the Mexico MTC in person which was a really cool experience for her! She is super excited and super prepared to work so Sister Broederlow and I are excited to be here trainers! This week was...

Hola a todos! How was everyone's week? Hopefully y'all were able to count the small miracles in everyday!  To get started I'll explain the email title. Recently Argentina opened their boarders to missionaries again so we had a BUNCH of missionaries who were preparing to leave for their original assignments. This in turn meant that there would be some movements in the mission to fix the companionships after the reassigned missionaries left. Anyways, we got a call on Tuesday night and the APs told us that Hermana Pease was getting ET'd (emergency transfered)! This was actually heartbreaking news because we wanted to spend Christmas together sooo bad. She got moved to Lanier to be with a Sisters who's comp left for Argentina. It was super hard to say bye to Sister Pease because the three of us have gotten to be sooo close these past couple weeks! She's going to do great things though, and I get to see her on Tuesday for our mission Christmas party haha so that'...

Hola a todos! How was everyone's week? I hope it was great and that y'all had opportunities to serve those around you! My week was super busy, but we had a lot of good times! For starters, we had Zone Conference this week. As TL's us and the Zone Leaders lead the Zone trainings at Zone Conference. We did a whole bunch of planning leading up to the conference on Thursday, and it went super well! It feels good to have my first Zone Conference training under my belt! Teaching was a little bit of a low this week. Most of the 8 new people we found last week actually didn't end up working out, so that was a little difficult. However, we still had a couple of super powerful lessons. We started teaching this one lady who's name is Vilma. She lives in the trailer park that us missionaries lovingly refer to as México. Y'all know that I've come to have a deep love for trailer parks and the experiences that I've had there because of my mission. Anyways, this particu...
