Monday, December 11, 2023 - The Pizza Man🍕

Hey everyone!

Going to be short I didn't have much time today, some quick things for ya:

-last Monday for dinner a pilot from Arizona invited us to dinner for pizza at his hotel, it was so good and the nicest place I've been in 4 months by far, super awesome!!
-it hit me that it is Christmas time this week. Was honestly a sad moment cause I won't be with the fam😭
-started watching the first presidency Christmas devo, it's so good!! Gong really carried though🎩
-buying treats next to my house for motivation🫡
-splits with 2 other gringos that know about as much spanish or less spanish than me. We actually managed hahah😮‍💨
-had a goal in soccer this week at the ward activity. Call me Messi porfa
-had my first Christmas concert for the mission! Super fun! And we got to watch a Christmas concert here at the church which was also super fun and tons of other missionaries were there!

Overall it was a much better week. One thing I worked on was trying not to think about home at all. I just did my best to focus on the work and challenge myself with the work of the mission every day, and it helped me a lot!! Thanks everyone for your messages and emails I love them!! See you next week!!

Monday, December 30, 2024 - Puppy Army🐶 and a New Year

Image
Hey everyone! I hope you all had a good Christmas and that you'll enjoy New Years!  Christmas Eve and Christmas were pretty fun! We got to stay out late and ate a lot of food and also sang lots of Christmas Carols so it was pretty fun honestly! We went to a kind of far away part of our area the other day and we got to play soccer with these kids which was pretty fun. We also saw these like 5 random super little puppies which was pretty cute We had a musical number in sacrament where all of the missionaries sang and a family and Investigator of the church played instruments! It was really fun Yesterday it was raining so hard, the streets just completely flooded and we got soaked but our shoes were actually just filled with water it was a little bit uncomfortable hahaha but it was pretty funny I hope everyone has a good New Years!! Talk to you all next week and give me a little update! It's crazy to think that my entire 2024 was here in El Salvador but it was a lot of fun! And I...

Hey peeps, Things here are starting to get a little more repetitive, but it's ok because my next email that will be sent will be from EL SALVADOR!!! I have about 5 days here left and then I'm off to the actual mission field!! I'm nervous but so so so excited to get going! To close out the Hunger Games at the CCM, we had determined that whoever in our district got picked to speak in church this past week would become Peeta, but sadly no one from our district got picked🤧 or so we THOUGHT. SURPRISE SECOND ROUND REAPING ELDER HALL IS OUR PEETA🦅 There are some Elders here who are going to serve in this rural place in Guatemala and they have to learn this language called xiatchi or something? I don't even know how to spell it, but one of the three bore their testimony in the language and the other said a closing prayer!! Super super cool stuff! Makes me glad I'm just learning spanish😅 We started doing only Spanish classes this week instead of a spiritual class in the m...

Hey everybody! Hope you are all doing well! This week was pretty solid, I'll get into it We had our english class as usual which was pretty fun on Wednesday I went to Santa Tecla for this mission leadership meeting (that I usually don't go to) so that was really fun to go and be back in Merliot and stay the night at my old house where I lived for 7 months, especially because all of my old housemates are still there so that was pretty cool. I also got to see a lot of mission friends which is always fun Other than that we got stranded in Versalles for a sec which was a little stressful, we resorted to hitchhiking because there was no bus but that is what happens I guess. We did eventually get home though A guy that me and Elder LaMarr talked to in the street got baptised yesterday which was super cool! He lives in another area but it was still cool to see that! Have a great week everyone!! Remember to say your prayers! Elder Bacon
