Hola Hola
Sooo you've probably heard about the fires in California, Oregon, and Washington. There have only been a few near the tri-cities, nothing bad, but we did get caught in the giant smoke cloud that's covering the state... It's been pretty bad honestly in the last 4 days. Our whole apartment got hit by the smoke pretty bad, it's made us all fairly sick but we're surviving haha. We did just get permission to do lessons in houses now though, so that is definitely a miracle.
Some cool stuff that happened this week, we are still geting a ton of referrals. We got some more english class referras from our local facebook page here and we also got a BoM delivery referral from ComeUntoChrist.org! The guy we took it too is super chill and aparently he's talked with the missionaries for awhile now, but the last time he did was when he lived in Mexico.
Church started up again this week for our Ward and it was suuuuper good!!!!! We only had about 40 people there and obviouslly everyone was disitanced and wearing masks but I was very gratefull I got to go one last time as a missionary. They'll only do in person meetings once a month but that's better than nothing.
Because of
church opening everywhere in our mission we made a video for our local facebook
Page! It's too big to attach, so here is the link you may have to resquest
access but I'll accept it if so.

We got to do some construction with some members of our Ward! It was super fun! There is an older lady in our ward whose house was terribly vandalized & destroyed, to the point where they had to tear out all the walls. So we spend a few hours putting up some sheetrock and listening to Banda with our Ward friends :)
We also had an awesome mission conference where Elder & Sister Neilson spoke to us over zoom. He taught us about how we need to be always learning and growing and trying to be more like Christ. He also told us some cool things about missionary work and how the changes that have been going on are very inspired.
Aside from that stuff kinda a slower week. Being sick kinda just puts us all in a weird funk so pray that we get a random giant storm to blow all the smoke away haha that would be awesome.
Los quiero mucho, sigan adelante
