Heyyyyy
This week was soooo funnnn!! We had transfers! I got transferred out of Santa Paula buttttt I'm in the happiest place on earth.... Santa Maria!!
What a blessing to be here, all of my companions have been here and I'm so happy to finally see it for myself!!!
The last few days in Santa Paula we met soooo many cuties and I'm so excited for them!! We had a really amazing opportunity to pass by a friend we haven't taught in a while. It was unplanned and led by the spirit and she was sooo happy to see us and we had an amazing lesson, we really hope to see her more at church!
Wednesday was a little chaotic and a little sad. We had a lesson with Emily and Lucero I don't think I've ever cried harder, I love them so much and I can't wait to see them again!!! (Because I left the area) But then we got ice cream with some of the coolest people ever!!
Thursday was transfer day so I spent the entire day packing and then making the trek up to Santa Maria! Somehow we fit 5 missionaries in a truck with all the luggage... we made some pit stops... I got to see Hermana Leary again!!! And then we made it to our apartment at like 9pm.... It was a crazy day!!!
Friday was my first full day with Hermana Vanderbilt!!!!! I love her!!!!!
We whitewashed up here (we are both new in the area) so we are just trying to figure everything out!!!
Saturday was just continuing figuring it out and then we had some really cool lessons! We had a lesson with our new bestie Teo! He was a Facebook referral!!!
Literally he has red hair and freckles and is just the cutest but he doesn’t speak a lick of english!!!
Sunday was the best. We had Stake Conference so we got to hear from soooo many amazing speakers, and I got to sit next to our new member Fermin. He got baptized last week!!!! He is soooooo cool. He was making little comments to me the whole time and then we sang “Andare Con Cristo" and his voice was soooo good, he was sooo happy to sing!!!
Somehow Sunday night we got roped into going to an English member meal and drove 30 minutes up the mountain to this absolute mansion!!!! And then we ate the most amazing food before quickly coming back to the church building for our mixteco service at 5!!!

Spiritual Thought
"Because “the gospel of Christ … is the power of God unto salvation,” you can be confident, courageous, and humble as you share it. Confidence, courage, and humility may seem like contradictory attributes, but they are not. They reflect the Savior’s invitation not to hide gospel values and principles under a bushel but to let your light shine, that your good works may glorify your Father in Heaven."
We are all missionaries sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ, name tag or not we have a part to play! And as we have the confidence to share the blessings and experiences we have, have the courage to invite everyone and be humble enough to get out of the way and let the Lord do his work though us... that is how we can be true disciples and missionaries!!
Do your part and invite those to receive the Fullness of the blessings from the restored church of Jesus Christ
Love you all so so much
catch y'all next week *finger guns*
