She arrived in the Islands safely!

Hola familia! I am on for about ten minutes to tell you all that I got here safely! It is still not real to me yet that I am in the canaries.

More and more each day on the mission I am coming to know more that Heavenly Father really has a sense of humor! And that He loves to push us FAR out of our comfort zones! But, I have a testimony that being out of the comfort zone is really the only way to grow so I am embracing it! Dont get me wrong... I am STOKED to be here in the islands! I cant believe it! Just other things along the way are pushing me far out of my comfort zone. So thank you for your prayers every day!

A quick update about my last week with Hermana Scheu (I will email pics next week)...

Gosh I seriously love Hermana Scheu and am so blessed I was her companion for 2 transfers. We had so serious fun, learned a ton from each other, helped each other grow a ton, and worked hard preaching this gospel. I have never laughed with anyone more (ok, Natalie is definitely a tie!) about just random things that happen. For example, the other day we had this address to pass by and all that we knew was that a guy named francis lived there. So we knocked and here is our convo...

Us: Good Morning, is Francis here?

Lady: What?

Us: Does Francis live here?

Lady: What? I dont understnad?

Us: Well, we are missionaries for the church of Jesus...

Lady: OHHHH, Francis , the pope, no, no, he is not here.

Us:(trying not to laugh) No, we are not looking for the pope, we are looking for a guy named francis, we have an address that says francis lives here.....

Anyways we ended up getting this lady's contact info but after we left and walked down the stairs we died laughing about how someone really thought we were asking if the Pope lived in this tiny piso in spain!

Here is the problem with Hna Scheu and I and all of our funny stories though, is that we tell them to other missionaries and I am not kidding you not a single one of them laughs... ever. So we are actually really confused. But hopefully you think they are funny! jaja

Ok I gotta run but I next week I have some serious miracles to write about. Gosh, I just love this work, I love this mission no matter how hard! There is truly nothing better.

I hope you all have a great week and all get healthy! Sorry everyone is sick witht he flu. BEAUTIFUL Pictures of the funeral. Holy cow. I am eager to herar how everything went. You all looked wonderful!

Les quiero!
