Subway aint gonna stop me

 Well another ✨️amazing✨️ week in Mexico.... I totally didnt get food poisoning from a subway sandwich.😐


Anyways let get into it.

The highlights🤺

-We had Zone conference this week, I was chosing a lot to answer stuff which was super chill. I totally wasn't stressing about my spanish the whole time....

-Elder Alfaro never got his residency for mexico and his visa expires thursday, we have tried to get it 3 different times and every time its not open. Tuesday is the last chance before he may just have to go back to the US for a minute. Tune in to the next email to see what happened

-We saw so many miracles this week. Going from finding amazing people to putting Ana and Angel (Mom and brother of Anel) on date for last Sunday! They got baptized!! Its was so amazing to see their testimonies grow in the true church.

-Paula and Mitzi got baptized too!! After last week them not feeling ready, we went with them Wednesday and basically made them do the baptismal interview. After they got done, they both were super excited and felt ready to enter into a covenant with God. Even more special, Eros got to baptize them! It was super special to witness it.

-ate subway and got food poisoning for 2 days, it didnt stop me from helping my friends get baptized luckily😅

Spiritual thought:
This week was really just a crazy week, I learned in zone conference I need to be more direct to people about baptism, along with that I had a test of faith with my work. Not having Mitzi and Paula get baptized with their brother last week really made me confused if I was doing this work right. I listened to a talk about giving all I have and letting God do the rest. Having faith that God will provide when we can only go so far. It opened my eye even more that this is a perfect work for imperfect people. There is no exact way of being a missionary, you just need to put in the effort and God will provide the rest. 

Thats all for this week, email me porfa. I love hearing from people.

Flics🌊🏋👨‍🚒

Bye, Elder Loosle

Earthquakes, fires, and headaches

  Holy what a week. A lot happened. To start off with news years, I thought the US did it big for new years. Nope not one bit. It sounded like I was in a war zone all night. At midnight there were about 100 plus elders screaming and yelling on the field right behind the casa. I watched some of the craziest fireworks I've ever seen, we were all standing on the second counselors driveway, to think back to it there were so many other spots to watch fireworks at midnight in the ccm. Thats okay, he didn't yell at us.  I don't think ive ever had such bad headaches and the amount I have had here is not fun. There's been a few days when I bum around in the morning because my head hurts so bad. Friday was definitely one to remember, I woke up with a bad headache and as I was getting ready, there was an earthquake! I'm not gonna say i jinxed it but the day we got to the CCM i joked about how funny it would be if there was an earthquake, well there was one and to make it bette...

Im famous? No

  This transfer was crazy, we did it all literally exploring the jungle all the way to being cornered in an alley by a dog. Its been so amazing serving God in Mexico.  Just found out my dad is DL as well as finishing my training 🙏🙏 thats pretty hype. Alright lets get into it, here are the highlights of this week: -Divies with the ZL, its been weird both of the divies I have done have been in my area with my companion and then another missionary joining us. Its been great. A long with that, we had a sleepover at the ZLs house. That was pretty fun, they live in a house with 4 other missionaries right now.we had boneless, its basically a better Bdubs. Slept in a hammock, that wss pretty lit. They also had a bench so I was able to workout in a normal way. (I miss the gym so much)  -Fernanda is getting baptized!!!! If you don't know who Fernanda is. Well we put a fecha with her the first day I was here, since then we have been fighting (not really but kinda) with her mom to ...

We are looking for José 😃

  And thats another solid week down here in Mexico, it doesnt stop getting hotter.  It was a pretty interesting week so lets get to the good stuff. Highlights:  -We had zone conference, it was chill. I was able to understand a good chunk of it. That was pretty dope. -A lot of the times when we are looking for people and doing public contacts or just talking to people in the streets, instead of making it weird by just starting talking. I like to ask them if they know José, we are looking for José. Sometimes it works, other times you get sent to a house of jehovah witnesses -Met some pretty dope jehovah witnesses, usually they don't like us missionaries. They invited us in and we talked, gave us an invite to their church. The next day we were walking close to their house and he came running with pan and gave us some fire pan. Chill guys, they wont listen to... We tried... -We were knocking some apartments and i looked out and a huge field was on fire, it looked like it was ...
