I LOVE FLORIDA
In the last 14 days Sister Esquerra and I have been fed pizza 10 times. 10. Times. I love pizza but wow yeah it's been rough. We decided that it all started when we ate pizza for her 21st birthday and that we somehow messed with the universe and had some freaky Friday weird bday voodoo and so now we have to eat pizza 21 times to break the curse. At the rate we're going we should hopefully be done soon. Pray for us haha
Pizza curse
We had a super busy and great week here in OP!
Tears were shed in walmart last week. I totally would have bought it if I didn't have to fit all my stuff into 2 suitcases in a few weeks
This week we met this super sweet lady named Sister Spina! She just moved here from Italy and she's amazing. We went by to see her and she opened up about some recent trials she's been having. We just listened, offered support, and tried our best to help. We asked her how her Book of Mormon reading was going and she said she doesn't ever read. We offered to Skype with her a few times every week and read all together which she was excited about. Saturday we were driving to an appointment and I just had the thought to send her a scripture. We texted her one of our favorites and she replied saying she read it and all the cross references and that it was exactly what she needed. She came to church with her daughter and we were so so so happy to see her
My life 24/7 🌬😑
We had zone conference this week and it was amazing! It was my last one and I had to give my departing testimony. It was surreal and I still forget sometimes that I only have a few weeks left. Lots of mixed emotions over here. I had to say goodbye to a lot of mission friends that I won't see again before I go home which was sad. I'm so thankful I got to come here and meet so many wonderful people. God is so good.

I also got to go on a trade off with one of my favorite humans, Sister Ridenhour. We came out together and served in the same zone in Gainesville and we had so much fun! I went with her to Normandy for the night and it was crazy. We were able to meet a lot of people and just talk with everyone. We were trying to find a LA member and they weren't home. It was pretty dark but we heard some kids playing and people talking outside so we walked down the street to go talk to them. They were outside this trailer and there weren't any street lights so they couldn't see us. We didn't want to look super creepy so we turned our phone flashlight on and yelled out "Excuse me? Hello?" I was like ah man this is awkward...but we ended up meeting the mom and she was so sweet! Her name was Amanda and she said that she had been talking with her husband that day about finding a new church to go to. It was a total miracle!! I've learned that we just have to follow the spirit and talk with everyone we can! We are constantly being led to people that are prepared we just have to be diligent and show our faith(which often times in florida means walking down sketchy dirt road in the dark)

-Weekly Moss Moment-
While in Normandy we stopped by to see this random Less Active that they'd never met before. We talked to her on her doorstep and she was pretty cranky and mean. She was complaining to us about how her helper lady had come but hadnt been able to do her dishes. We offered to come in and do them for her and she agreed! We went inside and went to work. She had two sinks full and so we each took a side and started scrubbing. She told us not to use dirty dish water so we left the water on to rinse them. About 2 dishes in she came in and told me I was doing it wrong and to put the plug in the drain so I did and kept working. A few dishes later she came in and said it was wrong again and was like "uggghhh ahhhhh ohhhh wahhhh dirty dish water ahhhh" like super sad and disappointed. I was so confused. We just did what we were told! So I took the plug out and went back to how we were washing them initially. We finished her dishes and headed out asap. She was super kooky man idk.
