Umm hey

 Hey friends, it's me again 



This week flew by and my memory is so bad soooo here are the highlights 

1. My comp and I wanted Ramen, BUT THE MICROWAVE WAS BROKEN. So we thought to boil the water, BUT WE HAD NO POT! So... what did Hermana Barret decide to do? Put a PAN (like the kind where you put cookies on)... yeah a PAN! AND FILL THAT WITH WATER AND THEN PUT IT IN THE OVEN AND BOIL IT! It was the dumbest and most brilliant idea in the world 

2. We went to zone conference... that was a good time 

3. We are celebrating el dia de los muertos.... and it is as amazing as I thought it would be 

4. For Halloween we just hung out as a zone and I played that one Hitler game and and and watched coco in Spanish.  It was amazing 

5. The people we wished would come to church didn't:( and we didn't get to find people :( and it was just a hard worker mission wise, but the Lord knows put efforts. And when our efforts are concentrated to the Lord, we will always be blessed. Always.


Here is something I have been pondering this week... the law of entropy. If you don't know what that is, it is simply that everything dies. And is unorganized. (Kinda) I have just been thinking about how metal rusts, and clothes get old, and our body's just decay. 
But here is what I read this week 
"...do these things that ye may [not] boast, but that ye may do these things for yourselves a treasure in heaven, yea, which is eternal, and which is eternal, and which fadeth not away." 
In heaven, when everything is restored, and time is eternal, nothing will fade. Not our blessings, our treasures, nothing. We will get to be with our loved ones forever, we will he perfectly healthy, perfectly beautiful, perfectly happy. And that thought gives me so much comfort. 
I believe that God had a perfect plan of happiness for each of us. But it is jusy that, a plan. We can't always be happy, life is too difficult sometimes. But it is a plan, a gradual progression. And one day, it won't fade away. 

And I know some of you have been asking for my Mailing address so... 8060 S 615 E Sandy UT 84070 United States

Annnd that's a wrap,
Adventures one day,

  The food at the MTC always sucks. BUUUUTTTT PIZZA FRIDAY IS THE BEST annnnnnnnnnd general conference was amazing.... if you didn't watch it you should!!! This week was a lil tiny eensy bit hard. But we all have hard times. It is okay to not be okay all of the time, it is okay to struggle.  But I have learned that God sees something in us we don't see. I have no idea how to speak Spanish or why he needs me to speak it in Utah. But He knows my true purpose more than I ever will. Some days I feel like I totally got it, and others I feel like I am a complete failure. The struggle makes you human. And we don't have to struggle alone. I can promise you, that as you rely on Jesus Christ your burdens will be lightened. They won't go away, but they will be bearable. I know that God hears our prayers. I know that he never leaves us. I know he loves each of us individually. The probability of you being alive is 1 in 400 trillion, so if God didn't think the world needed you, ...

  Mis queridos amigos, This week was heckin crazy lemme tell you: First of all we are in a walking area, so it takes about 20 min minutes to get to anywhere we need to go. Except when you are teaching a family outside of your area. Which is AN HOUR AWAY! We asked like 10 people from our ward to drive us and everyone was so so busy. My favorite excuse came from an 80 year old man who said "sorry sisters, we will be grocery shopping at that time"... ah to be 80.  We get to her house and she tells us how she doesn't like our religion because we dont worship idols. Typical... But we have a massive MILAGRO! We have been trying to get into contact with Gino for the past 6 weeks, and we just haven't been able to. But yesterday we did, and he wants to be baptized. He is also feeding us Peruvian food Wednesday, I am so excited because Zach keeps raving about it. We also saw Ducks this week and that made me really happy  Spiritual Thought:  Israel in Hebrew means Let God Preva...
