barbie in peru (June 9, 2025)

This week was a good one! Time doesnt exist on the mish. I can never tell if the week went by super fast or if last monday was 2 years ago... one day at a time 

We had zone conferenceeee this week! This was President Hopkin's last one. Can't believe he's dying. Conference was so fun though! Got us all hyped to get 404 baptisms...it honestly feels impossible 😭 but hey if it's the Lords will, its going to happen. For President and Hermana Hopkin's last conference, they finally ate live suri. It's basically this giant worm. It was nasty... but good way to go out. 

Tender mercy was that Hermana Parke and I were waiting for a lesson and we saw Barbie Princess and the Pauper on the TV!! We almost started tearing up đŸ„č 

We have been struggling to find some people these past few weeks, so we have been praying a lot to just be guided by the spirit. The first door we knocked on Friday was gold. We found a family of 5 (the parents are indeed married) and they were soo excited that we were there. They then told us to go visit their family. Theres like 3 families that all live right by each other and they all want to get baptized. This really is the Lord's work! I love being a missionaryyy! 

I've been reading with the Come Follow Me this year in d&c and I absolutely loved this last week!! The scriptures can apply to our personal lives so so much. We should always strive to be anxiously engaged in a good cause no matter where we are in life, and we get to choose to do so. You have your own agency! You get to choose what you do each day. You get to choose what you do with every minute and every second. You get to choose who you follow. You get to choose who you become. And Jesus chose YOU to bring to pass His great work. He has called YOU to help His children. He chose YOU to be His hands. The power is in YOU. Who and what are you going to choose? 

-Hermana Micheli
