4th of July in the MIDWEST

Hello! My week was packed so I'll get right into it...july 3rd we drove past this fair so naturally we stopped and wanted to do some street contact. As we were walking across the street a cop sees us and was like "NO absolutely not what do you guys think you are doing, you cannot go in there" and we were like freak he knows we are gonna try to get some contacts so we were like "what why not" (so scared) and he was like "nah I'm just kidding I'm in the ward but inactive" he also told us that his daughter is serving a mission in Anaheim- shoutout to you morgan...anyway such a cool dude, we told him that this is his sign to come back to church hahah. Also when we were there my companion was like "do you think we are allowed to ride the rides" and I was like "um probably not" and then she was like "well i'm the STL so I say yes" LIKE BRUH we aren't allowed to scroll on facebook but we can ride carnival rides?? riddle me that smh

One more funny thing that happened was a couple weeks ago I had the idea to make paper airplanes with our number on it because I always have such good convos with people at stop lights and I finally got to throw it into a car this week but since Chicago is so windy the airplane did not make it into the window..but I was very determined to make this work so I got out of the car at the stop light and handed it to him (I was driving too) lol...God kept that light red for me haha

For P.day today I convinced my redhead companion that we should go tanning at one of the lake beaches hahah finna be LIT
LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Elder $oares à Tahiti

Image
YOOO my time is running out as a missionary. I'm gonna miss it. Especially when we have weeks like this one. God decided I needed to go out with a bang for my last transfer. Elder Soares came to Tahiti and spoke for my very last zone conference. It was exactly what I needed. I'll drop some good quotes. - Missionary work is not a sacrifice, it's a privilege. - If we want to know God, we have to serve him -There's a difference between helping someone be baptized and helping them become a disciple of Christ. -Discipleship comes from hard work -You can leave the mission field but don't let the mission field leave your heart -Live a life that attracts people to the gospel -Have the courage to be different - weekly accountability letter to the savior after the mish (you missionaries will understand) Man the list goes on but those were some of my favorites. We are currently teaching the cutest family and walked around the temple with them after our lesson and they told us ...

You and me go fishin in the dark 🐟🌛

Image
Yes I did indeed go fishing in the dark but it ain't the same vibe as the song :// Also jokes on all you of who drop hundos on fishing gear, all you need here is an empty water bottle, string and bait. Man I think I'm obsessed with fishing now. This week was exhausting. Our days start with lessons at 8am and goes until 8pm. It's non stop all day long. It is work! Sometimes all I want to do is take a nap in a cold dark room but it's all worth it when the amis change because of Jesus Christ, and you can see the fruits from your labors. We've been working with another family and just yesterday they decided to get married and baptised April 30th. I told them I was getting transferred at the beginning of May and what do you know it! I guess they want me to be here for it  I know you are all so sick of me talking about the Book of Mormon but legit everytime I read it, I think to myself "this is amazing how have I never read this before" A quote that I found this...

Provo, draper, and alpine

Image putting 3 sisters from provo, draper and alpine together. Don't worry we've already laughed about it hahaha but yes a sister get ETed into our companionship. I love trios so no complaints! This week we got to drive around all of Tahiti for some filmings. One mans example really touched me. Some background: He doesn't have a lot of things in life, no phone no car, no bike. His house was made out of cement with sometimes no roof covering it. His conversion story is amazing, but after we were done filming we saw that he had a big table of fruits. (Usually pretty common for people here to sell fruit for a living) Next thing we know he's putting together a whole bag for us. I run out to the car to get some money and when i tried to give it to him, he very sternly refused. He said " i know that charity is the pure love of christ" I felt so bad for taking this big bag of fruit. It's literally his income. Over my mission I've noticed that the people who ...
