Mason's Mission: Un misionero pianoeando

Day: birthday eve

Pushup Count: 91

Buenos dias, buenos días, buenos días! Welcome to my weekly email. Here's what we did this week:

- Last pday we played volleyball and I ran for a full 30 minutes it added up to like 200 times back and forth in our backyard

- Tuesday we had our combined district counsel and I played the piano. After that we taught an awesome lesson to our friend Ally who's getting baptized in two weeks

- We picked up a car to take to some Elders and found out it needed some serious cleaning and a new tire... And that somehow we'd have to fix that between zone conferences :/

- Wednesday was zone conference #1 in Santa Clarita. I honestly don't really remember it, but I played the piano and it was good

- Zone conference #2 in Bakersfield was my favorite. I played the piano about a million times. One of them was a duet with my bestie Elder Archibald and another was an impromptu intermediate hymn of Called to Serve. I also gave my departing testimony and may have cried just a little bit

- That evening we went and got the tire fixed on that car, so we had about 10 minutes for our companion study all of our lessons went super well though

- We listened to the car read a giant text that one of our friends sent us and it was the funniest thing I've heard in two years we were so grateful to be stopped at a red light because we were absolutely dying of laughter

- Zone conference #3 in Lancaster. I drove that car down by myself while my companions took the van. It was super strange I just listened to saints and then some música. We were all absolutely exhausted by the end, but the sandwiches at lunch were amazing.

- After zone conferences, I went on an exchange with Elder Pugmire. He's amazing as always, and we ate tostadas again I'm pretty sure he still has only eaten them with me

- We had our last lesson with Euphemia

- Luis bought us super good Mediterranean food for dinner on Saturday. Unfortunately the falafel sat like a rock in my stomach, but it was worth it

- On Sunday Alan asked me to give him the aaronic priesthood, which I gladly did. It was awesome :)

- Yesterday we had dinner with Aldair and he made his famous tacos dorados

It was a good week here. Hopefully the next few are just as good or better :) Love you all so so much!

Spiritual Thought:

In my departing testimony I shared these two scriptures:

Alma 17:16 — Therefore, this was the cause for which the sons of Mosiah had undertaken the work, that perhaps they might bring them unto repentance; that perhaps they might bring them to know of the plan of redemption.

Genesis 28:15 — And, behold, I am with thee, and will keep thee in all places whither thou goest, and will bring thee again into this land; for I will not leave thee, until I have done that which I have spoken to thee of.

I'm very glad that the redemption that Christ has given us has become the reason that I serve. I'm also incredibly grateful to know that He will not leave me as I do so.

Mucho amor,
