Hey
Ive been a missionary for a while now lol
Also happy new year and allat fun jazz
Yknow lately i havent really talked about how spanish is coming along but l lowkey have actually been getting really good at it idk how good you have to be to say you're bilingual but I guess im basically there
I mean writing in spanish doesnt really prove anything because i could just be using a translator for all you folks know
Anyway
A lot happened in the last like 4 days since the last pday
Since
Last pday was like
Christmas
Wow its already been a while since Christmas
Lowkey it feels like it was just yesterday idk ive already eaten all the candy my mom got me (im like that) so i guess we boutta start the new year strong with a sugar high
Also we had something cool happen on saturday
So theres this old lady in borrego sprongs that we go visit every once in a while and its pretty cool we bring her food that another member makes for her cuz she has parkinsons and cant really do a whole lotta stuf on her own but its aight and she's real sweet
Her brother just moved her from the mexico and he was visiting her when we pulled up for our regularly scheduled visit and he was like ayo who u and we were like da missionaries (in spanish) and then he kinda started ranting about his life and then we were like aight dawg (in spanish) you tryna get baptized (just totally cuz him off lol) (its chill he actually really liked us from the start cuz we were bringing his sister food and he liked that we were serving others) so bro is in his like 70s and we quickly ran into the issue of the fact that bro is hard of hearing and we were practically yelling everything and then when he didnt hear us his sister was always like "theyre talking to you" cuz she hears just fine their dynamic is lowkey hilarious and then he was actually down for the idea of getting baptized and he came to church and he's super dope and asked questions and shared his feelings and wants to meet with us again!
No we didnt have a blackout i just was mentioning that i finish my blackout year (full calendar year as a missionary) with the end of 2024 which is pretty wild that i started this year as a missionary and im gonna finish it as a missionary and then i got until july which is wild that we're on the last leg
also we are super close to the 1001 goal idk if we've hit it yet but as of yesterday we only needed a couple left so pray that somebody decides to get baptized on a slow tuesday
Met another lady too that wants to quit smoking and was down to come to church so that was sick tracting miracles frfr
Transfers are also on thursday which is crazy this transfer flew by we dk the news until wednesday morning about who leaves tho
Uhhhhh
Idk this week was weird like everybody was outta town
We bible bashed with someone yesterday that was funny
This morning our recent convert had us take a fridge to indio so we did that idk its just a funny thought driving with a fridge in the trunk bed
The word fridge is funny lol ive never really thought about it that deep but i was like "wow ive never lifted a fridge before" and it got the whole squad laughing cuz i said "fridge" all goofy-like
Ngl i took a fat nap on friday
So friday was deep cleaning day and i lowkey had a really bad headache so i cleaned some of the bathroom and then i was like "hey elder harris i feel like absolute garbage rn im gonna go take a 20 minute nap" and i ended up waking up an hour and a half later cuz i slept through the alarm and elder harris did an insane deep clean of our shower but at least my headache was gone
Ok bye lol im gonna miss borrego so much when i leave
Idk if ive talked about how infamous this area is across the mission because of just how out in the middle of nowhere it is (probably the least populated area in the mission) so im really glad ive been able to serve here ive enjoyed the long drives a lot actually and i love the people here so i hope i stay another
Ok bye fr
