Hola a todos!!  We had another awesome week here in Pamplona and the weeks are just flying by! God is truly blessing the work here in Pamplona and preparing people who truly want to hear his message 😁  All I can say is faith works and miracles are real!! Highlights/ Fun facts: - The Elders in my district recently discovered how well my last name sounds with the word party in front of it, hence the title of the email, so now the running joke is putting random things I do in front of Hardy which has made for a pretty silly week! -This transfer our mission is really focusing on reaching out and calling all of our members in our areas that have not been to church in a while and trying to get to know them and we have seen some awesome miracles from it! This week we visited our friend Vivian's family again and her husband was there who wasn't a member of the church and he's super interested in learning more so it was soo cool!! - We had a lesson with our friend Nieves this week ...

Faith in Every Footstep

Hola a mis queridos amigos 🤗  This week absolutely flew by, and it was so fun!! We had some amazing lessons with our friends and we got to go to Madrid for Zone conference! I was able to see almost all of my past companions and it was just awesome! Most of all, my faith was strengthened this week that God really does guide us in this work and He can work miracles with our faith! Highlights/ Fun facts:  - On Tuesday we met with our friend Alejandro, who I found through Facebook, and we had one of the most spiritual lessons I've ever had on my mission! We taught him about the Plan of Salvation and as we were teaching he just kept saying, "wow I have never heard this before, this is amazing!!" It was so beautiful to watch my friend that I care about so much learn about God's perfect plan for the first time and to be able to feel the spirit testifying of its truthfulness as we testified! We also had 2 amazing members in the lesson that truly added so much to the spirit i...

Hola mis queridos amigos!! What a wonderful and slightly chaotic week it has been here in Pamplona! This was our first full week with just Hermana Amado and I running both of our areas and it has been crazy but awesome!! We have seen some amazing miracles, and I have definitely fallen asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow every night! Highlights/ Fun facts: - We started meeting with our friend named Erika this week and she is so cool!! She has some really awesome questions and it is so cool to see her learn and understand about the restored church and the Book of Mormon!! - We also started meeting with our friend Alejandro who we found through Facebook and he is sooo prepared! He has such a desire to learn and it's been super cool to watch as he learns more and starts to pray and read the Book of Mormon!! We have also had some pretty amazing Hermanas (and little friends) help us in our lessons with him which has been so cute 😄 - We met with Nieves this week and she chose a date...

It has been so cool to get a glimpse into Spanish culture and celebrate in a different and beautiful way!! We also got transfer news this week and it was crazy!! Hermana Dickey is leaving us for Madrid and Hermana Amado and I are staying here in Pamplona to run both areas!! Our trio is down to 2! We are excited for the challenge to keep both our areas alive and keep the work progressing here in Pamplona!

Hola mis queridos amigos!! 🥳🎆 Feliz año nuevo (happy new year)!! I can't believe it's already 2025!! As I was reflecting on this year I realized that I have been a missionary for half of 2024 and it is amazing!! The time has truly flown by which kind of scares me that the rest of my mission will do the same, but I am truly so grateful for every moment so far on my mission and the people I have been able to meet and serve and love! Being a missionary is not always easy, but it is truly the most fulfilling and joyfilled work anyone could ever do and I am so excited to spend 2025 continuing to serve the people of Spain 💛 Highlights/ Fun facts: - This week my companions and I have really been focusing on talking to as many people as we can during our travels because between balancing lessons with friends from both areas and also trying to work with the JAs (young adults) we don't have a ton of time in our schedule to focus on finding, and we have seen so many miracles!
