So much fooood... also memes - Mission Week 23

"Happiness does not depend on what happens outside of you but what happens inside of you"


- Harold B. Lee 

Buenos Dias and all that, this week was... a week that existed. 

Something I've quickly learned about farm life is that when spring hits, everyone is super busy. It was a struggle to find anyone to talk to this week because Basin City was just a ghost town. 

Earlier last week I had exchanges to Connell again! It's been a while since I've been there but it was pretty sweet as always. They have a man who's on date for baptism and he super cool. He used to be a chef in Mexico, then he moved here and just works in the fields. Kinda a sad story because he's got a lot of talent. He fed us enchiladas and they were bien rico. 

We had a branch party planned for last Saturday (Apparently). No one told us about it until the day before it happened so we didn't have any time to invite the people we were teaching. It was kinda frustrating but some random guy ended up coming and we talked to him, we'll probably start teaching him this week if we can. That was my first experience having real carne asada tho so that was good. 

We had a linger-longer after church and Edgar showed up! He explicitly told us he wasn't going to come to church anymore so that was a super nice surprise to see him there. 

Also, we got to teach a guy behind the counter of a convenience store haha. It was kinda funny because we were in the middle of this lesson and a member walks in and just buys some chicken tenders and walks out without saying a word... I think he was kinda confused but I guess he was hungry enough to interrupt our lesson.

Other than that, it was kinda a slow week. Spring here is super pretty, though. We saw the best rainbow I've ever seen in my life here (got a pic too). General Conference HYPE is real! I hope everyone is excited to get blasted by revelation! Come to General Conference with a question, pray about that question, and you will receive personal revelation as you sincerely watch/listen to General Conference. 

Love y'all thanks for your support!
