April 27, 2026 Ya so I got bit by a stupid dog on thursday and I already hate chilean dogs but now I despise them. We were talking to someone at night and I went to shake their hand through their fence that just had a little hole so I couldn't see the devil dog waiting to bite my hand. Anyways we ended up going to the hospital at like 8 and were there until 11:30 just for them to clean it with alcohol and tell me to come back the next day. So much for free health care. Anyways I got some shots and now im chillin. It was pretty hype Bc the other elders brought us a bunch of food and icecream so we were feasting in the emergency room. So I learned this week how to make an owala water bottle bomb. I was cleaning my water bottle with hot water and soap and then I shook it and when I went to open it it blew up in my face and I got hot soapy water all over my face. But hey it was pretty funny and cool to learn lol. Then we actually missed the bus on the way to district council. We left a...

April 20, 2026 Bueno first off my birthday on the same day as interviews I did not get lunch with President sadly. But shoutout to my grandparents and also my bishop for the money to go eat out! We started a 2 day intercambio that day so I was in the actual city part of los angeles and had to take advantage of being in the city so on Uber Eats I bought me and the Elder I was with Trump burgers. Yes they were called Trump burgers and they were actually super good. Then I bought a burger again the next night from a different place and it was even better so it was fire. Did a service project for a member and we completely tore off the roof, put in more studs and replaced the roof. On the Intercambio I did 5 baptismal interviews for the other elders who baptized a family yesterday and it was super sweet to do. They were super ready and super cool to see the Lord preparing so many people. My parents sent me this game called “Pop Darts” it's pretty much these suction cup things that you ...

April 13, 2026 So we have interviews this week on Wednesday and the other thing that is happening Wednesday is my birthday so I thought hmm maybe pressy will take me out to lunch! We also had a multizona conference this last week and I told one of the AP’s my plan and he loved it so he said I should go ask pressy and that he’d go with me. So I told pressy you know what is the same days as interviews and he said what and I said my birthday. Then he asked wait so you don’t want to have interviews that day then, and I was like no no no I still want to have interviews. And that was the extent of our convo bc he was in a rush to leave but safe to say he did not catch the hint that I wanna go to lunch. Went to a bakery and bought dinner at 7:30 just to realize from the other missionaries that its buy one get one free after 8 so we went back and bought some more desserts. We took an uber to the bus station from the church after district council bc we had a ton of stuff for the house and I lef...

April 6, 2026 We found this guy named Marcos and we taught him about prophets and conference and he was super down to learn more and even asked us if we could meet up the next day! So Wednesday we met up and taught him the plan of salvation and he started crying and loved it. It was super spiritual and he said the catholic and evangelical Churches “don't fill his soul”. We had 3 super powerful lessons with him but he lives in the other elders sector so we gotta pass him off to them. On Easter we were walking by the highway and a car pulled over and gave us chocolate eggs. Then we turned a random corner with a store and some kid was already standing arms fully extended towards us with 2 sodas in his hands and gave them to us. It was the weirdest thing but such a miracle so I'll take it. Today was a zone p-day and we had an Easter activity and I drew the Portland temple with a sunset on the egg and it was lit and played some soccer volleyball and had an egg throwing and catching ...

March 30, 2026 bueno, so first off this week we had transfers and now I'm in my new area here in laja. There has been 2 elders here for a long time and they just added 4 and lets just say they were not prepared for that. we’ve been living in poverty. So when we showed up the fridge was broken, there was only 2 chairs in the whole house, no where to put anything with 4 elders and 3 mattresses. but you all know that one rule where your not supposed to sleep in the same bed as your comp well ya me and my comp slept on a queen size mattress from WWII(probably) Then I was told by a guy in my old house of missionaries that theres a green jar of salt just used for killing slugs and I get here and the first thing I see is a green jar of salt. At least I haven’t seen a slug yet so that's good. Anyways besides that this ward hasn’t had a baptism in almost a year and of the 450 members there are about 15 active so there is a TON of work to do with the members. Then no one likes the bishop...
