Short and sweet... like the week!!

August 3rd


Hey fam and friends!

This week is gonna be kinda short and sweet :)

On friday we had a meeting because my companion is a STL, so we woke up at 3:30 a.m. to travel to Ramos Mejia by bus and then by train. Luckily, I didn´t puke this time ;) haha!! But yeah, the meeting was real nice and it was good to chill with some other hermanas and elderes. FUN FACT: I taught a piano lesson is Castellano! This cute little Brazilera was trying to play a song, and I was sitting there and this thought just came to me "she doesn´t know how to read flats." So I went over and was amazed that I was able to teach her how to read music, and about sharps and flats...and by the end of it she could play the top hand in the hymns! haha it felt so good!!

Speaking of talents, I was able to use my talent in choir on Sunday night and be the pianist! It was so calming and relaxing... 4 LESS ACTIVES CAME TO CHOIR!! and one of them is this little 8 year old kid named benjamin. He´s so dang funny, and he loves us! One time someone asked us why we were such nice people, and he said "because they´re misioneras, and misioneras are GOOD CHICAS!!" hahaha but yeah, he sat on the piano bench with me and put his hands over mine because he wanted to feel like he was playing the piano. Their family is so fun and the mom is finally coming back to church now that we are befriending their daughters, and now that her visiting teachers are actually visiting! haha but yeah, it was a good sunday... we had 1 inverstigator come to church, and we had like 4 or 5 less actives come that we committed to come this week. WE have 75 people there, that´s triple what we had my first week! Overall, a really good week, and a week of growth and a lot of faith :)

Thank you all for your prayers!! I love you all, and also, Jacob 2 & 3 & especially 4 are super good chapters in the Libro de Mormón. Read em :)
