Monday May 18th Highlights: -more of the side quest -unlimited sushi 🍣😋 -Zone conference Lowlights -1 week left with my comp😢 -I have no money All right not a ton has happened so this email may be a bit shorter. As I explaiend a bit in my last email, Elder Luekenga and I had the greatest side quest of my mission. On our way to zone conference, we took a train, and were havng the best day EVER! As we got off the train, we saw an amazing park, animals, and peacocks. It was so random. Then, BAM! "MY SUITCASE"🤯... My companion had left his suitcase on the train headed all the way up to San Sebastian(literally the edge of France). And we needed it. So we bought tickets, which we didn't even use, and we were off. We took a missionaries car and drove up to a small city to intercept the bag. It was super fun, but a total of a 5 hour side quest🙊We got the suitcase and made it back just in time to see everyone. I think its crazy we were quite literally closer to France th...

April 12 2026 Hey everyone! Email's a little shorter this week not too much has happened. This week the only eventful thing that happened was zone conference. For our zone pday we met everyone and played basketball for like 4 hours straight. It was so fire, but so exhausting🥱 I also would NEVER recommend hooping in sweatpants. Hottest I've ever been in my life...Zone Conference was fun. Pretty exhausted from the day before but a cool opportunity to hear from the President of our mission and see how we can each improve. I was told to share and it was cool. People were pretty surprised with my spanish so I think that's good! Random story: During a lesson, the grandma looked at me and said, "tienes un cara pícaro." No idea what pícaro meant and my comp said "you have a sly face". Not sure if this was a compliment or how to take it but that was an interesting thing to say! This week I was taught by Kamila, our 9 year old friend! She is preparing for ...

Avila

Mar 9 2026 Wow what is up everybody!! Got some castles and interesting stuff in the google photos now haha! Join up Trainer/Area So we got here and went to the church first. Everyone was exhausted and trying not to sleep in the car, but we had stuff to do. We set up our phones and our cards so we could go out and do the work. We toured Spain and wow it's incredible. Architecture is one of a kind. We had a little breakfast thing and got to know some of the trainers! Met some goats like Elder Haney, Mcintyre, Denning, Moody. Wow literally everyone there was just so nice and so excited to do the work. When we got back to the church we sat down and one by one individually met our trainers. I was so scared and they have them wait around a corner for us. When I was called up I turn around the corner, and the legend Elder Luekenga is around the corner😆So hyped to be with him and we are opening up Ávila!!! Also our dad's served the same mission 27 years ago and knew of eachother so ...
