Hola a todos! Espero que hayan disfrutado mucho su semana y que hayan disfrutado mis correos!! Well well well, I don't know when this happened but we got to my last email. These past few weeks have been a little bit of the same but there are some cool experiences I wanted to share with y'all!! Amairany's baptism! First we finally finished all the house inspections in the mission! After three weeks and many many hours of traveling we visited the 68 different houses in the mission and made sure that everyone was living in good conditions and properly cleaning their home! We saw some really cool quite clean houses, and some very not cool very dirty houses, it was definitely an experience!! One of the coolest things is that with this trip I officially got to see every single area of the mission, from Teocelo in the south then to Cerro Azul 9 hours all the way to the north. I'm so grateful to have been assigned to the Mexico Xalapa Mission, it is the greatest mission on the

-Miracles (Doña pili, Francisca, y Elio fam) Muy buenas tardes a todos ustedes! Espero que hayan tenido unas semanas excelentes!! I know I haven't written an email in a couple weeks, but really there wasn't too much to talk about the last two weeks! We've been super busy running around doing a lot of administrative stuff, but this last week we had some really cool experiences!!! MTZ/TEZ Zone Conference! To start off, there us one thing I should mention that happened a few weeks ago, like you all know every month we have a MLC. We usually do one month in person here in Xalapa and one month on Zoom, this month it was on Zoom! We had been thinking a lot about what we wanted to do in the meeting, and we came up with a few different ideas! We talked a lot about how revelation works, specifically what our stewardship is. This came up due to our recent focus on Standards of Excellence, a certain number of new friends, lessons with members, church attendances, etc. That we should a

Muy buenos días a todos! Espero que no hayan olvidado de mi jaja!! These past couple weeks have been super busy, and really rewarding! We finished off the transfer and are starting off the next 6 weeks of miracles here in Xalapa!! My companion and me Last week was the week of interviews and Zone Conference here in Xalapa, just like in the North we had to be there to help with phone audits with all the missionaries. We also had our own interviews with President! After having seen everyone else have their interviews it's always exciting to have one-on-one time with President, even though we're always with him!!  That also gave us the opportunity to do divisions with the two sets of Zone Leaders here in Xalapa! They were two days of miracles!! The first ones with the ZLs from Macuiltepetl was great!! I stayed here with an Elder from Guadalajara, el paisano!! We went and visited a recent convert here in the area and got a really good reference from them of a girl who wants to be ba

Hola muy buenos días a todos!! I hope everyone has had a wonderful week!! It's been crazy over here and I don't have a lot of time but let me throw in some quick bullet points to talk about our week! -Zone Conferences in Martinez Teziutlan and in the North! We did Division with the Zone Leaders and got to know them more and hopefully help a little bit with the problems in their zones! -It's been brutally cold this past week! And we had no idea it was going to be so cold so we didn't bring even a sweater with us on the conference tours. But when we were in Papantla we were able to find some jackets in a little thrift store by the church! -While we were traveling we went to the meeting of "Mission Emphasis" which I'm not sure if it exists back home but it's a devotional with the stake presidency, mission President, and missionaries for the future missionaries to help them have the desires to serve a mission! They're really cool, and we had the chance

Feliz Año nuevo!!! I hope everyone is doing well, these past two weeks have been awesome and I would love to tell you about it!!! Merry Christmas and Happy new year from the Sitrict Natura (y los Elderes) Well first let me talk about the goal that we set as we finished off last month and hopped into this one. As my companion and I looked at January we knew that we needed to place a goal of how many friends we hopes to help make covenants with our father and enter into the waters of baptism. As we started we decided yo make it a little interesting, we decided to both pray and think separately and then we would come together to set the goal. When we reunited after having prayed and pondered we said our number on the count of three, when we got to three we both let out "three". There we knew that it was the will of the Lord. So since then we have been working hard to find the names of those three friends. And today we know all of them, let me introduce you. John is a friend in t

Feliz Navidad y Prospero año a todos!! It's been a really good couple weeks over here in the MMX! There has been a lot of change, and I'm short on time but let me jump into it!! First we had transfers last week, our companion Elder Moreno finished his mission. It was sad to see him go, but I know he has so many plans and things he wants to accomplish when he gets home and I hope he can!! And with the transfers we received the new missionaries and had their orientation! That part was very strange because there were two missionaries that didn't arrive with everyone else. One missionary lost his flight in Mexico City and didn't get in until 12:30am! And the other got in one day early and had to stay with the mission President in Veracruz until the next day we could go pick him up! Besides that everything went well, it's a grat group of young men and women and I'm so excited to see them work hard and grow as they start their missions! Also, we've been enjoying o

Hola Humanos! Que gusto poder hablarles un poco de lo que ha sucedido en los últimos días! Alright, I'm sorry I didn't sent out an email last week, I'm just always busy haha!! But I've got some BIG stuff to talk about! So let's not waste time and we'll jump right in! The new trio! First of all I would like to talk about the two Christmas conferences we had the last two weeks. So if yall remember we had our mission tour with Elder Montoya where we learned a lot of new tactics and ideas for the mission! And even though we visited the whole mission President wanted to make sure that we had our Christmas conferences to have some time to hang out together! So we had two more conferences in Poza and in Xalapa for the North and the South where we had a volleyball tournament, nachos, a Christmas devotional, our flu vaccines and a lot of special musical numbers!! It was very spiritual and a lot of fun!! Also while we were in the North we picked up our new companion Elder
