How's it goin?
Well, the sun has been out, the mosquitos have been out (a lot), and many Book of Mormons have been passed out.
As a zone this week, we had a goal to pass out 100 copies of the Book of Mormon, which would be 10 per companionship. Each copy was marked with a verse about the Atonement. We went to work last Monday after P-Day, and offered one to every person that we met. Even if they were not very interested, we sill offered them one (planting seeds!)! Hermana Nelson and I ended up passing out 15, and then we completely ran out lol. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing when missionaries run out of Book of Mormons haha.
Saturday, one of our ward missionaries and his family all got sealed in the temple! We weren't able to go, but we did go to the reception afterward. Almost all of the other Hermanas were there and it was really fun to see them (including Hna Winterton!!) The boda was great. Hispanic weddings are just so funny. Always a good time.

| Felicidades to the Martinez family for getting sealed! |
We found this GOLDMINE of a trailer park the other day! It's a bit away, but there's so many Hispanics there and it's awesome. Trailer park tracting😊
As we were leaving an apartment complex on Saturday, I was about to get in the car when a guy came up to us and said hola. We talked to him for a couple minutes, gave him a Book of Mormon, and invited him to church! Sunday morning I texted him and asked if he is coming, and he said yes! He came and stayed the whole 3 hours and really enjoyed it. It was just cool that we met him so quickly and then he came to church. Go David! We hope he's actually interested in the gospel!

For the first time on my mission I finally asked to take some food home because I literally could not eat all of it! We went to this family's house for lunch and she gave us a GINORMOUS plate of food! My plate alone could easily feed 3 hungry men. Like no joke, it was so much. So I just had to ask to take it home, and I don't think she was offended! Woohoo!
I'm going to be honest, this week has been kinda hard. We worked hard and met some cool people, but idk, I feel like I've kinda been in a rut this week! Because I've been in this area for quite a few months, I feel like I should know everyone and everything by now which I definitely don't. I am excited for this new week though and to get a lot of stuff done. It's gonna be a good one, I know it 😊

| So there's a story to this one. A few night ago I went to make a bowl of cereal, and tons of ants started crawling all out of the box. All of our boxes of cereal were infested with ants. We threw everything away. So gross!!!!! |
Thank you all for your support and everything! Glad you all had a good week. Hope you feel better Joe!
Love you,
Love Hermana Nissinen
