hola hola hola! Buenas tardes! I hope you had the bestest week! It was another crazy week here in West Palm! We have lots of people we are trying to help progress right now so that has been fun!  We have two friends who we are hoping to get baptized on Sunday! They want to so bad but because of some struggles we might have to push their date back! The lord has prepared them and I am hoping eveything works out for them! Pray for Marina y Mariana!  Friday was the CRAZIEST day of my entire mission! We had a zone blitz which means we set SUPER high goals exchange with someone random in our zone and then go crazy! We had to set a goal for how many lessons we were going to have that ray and how many new people we could find to teach! Well me and my comp for the day decided to set a super high goal of 50 lessons and 20 new people being taught! Our zone laughed at us with that goal and so it motivated us to work so hard for it! We literally literally didnt have lunch or dinner that da...

MONDAY AGAIN

HAPPY MONDAY:) This week was kinda a crazy week! Our entire mission had emergency transfers so that was WILD! My companion did not change though... still here in West Palm.  But I am serving around a lot of different missionaries so that has been fun!  We also had interviews with our Mission President this week and he said the chances are high I will stay in West Palm for 1 more transfer! 5 transfers seems like an eternity in this area! But obviously there is a reason I need to stay here! But we will see maybe that will change haha! Stay tuned for transfer news in the next couple weeks haha!  This week we also had an exchange! The sisters we exchange with are English sisters which meant I did all the talking! I decided we were going to find so many people because I was sick of having nobody to teach lol. So drove me and the other sister to what I like to call "THE GHETTO" . But instead of like getting out and walking around to find people we stayed in the car and drove sl...

Valentines Day

YO!!! HAPPY VALENTINES WEEK! Somebody eat some good sugar cookies for me because those sounds yummmy! Also fun fact: I come home in an exactly year! I have been a missionary for 6 months!!!  This week was the same as every othe one haha! We are struggling to find people! We knock doors, call, go to random latin market, and nobody is interested! So its been a struggle!  My studies this week were focused on Love! I wanted to focus on Love for Valentines Day! So my studies started off with the Saviors love. As I thought of the many stories where the Savior healed the sick, comforted, served, cared for, and most of all loved! I realized that those miracles or stories dont stop.  He loves us and we can see his love and around us as well. One thing that I loved that i learned was that we all can share the love of jesus christ with those around through the simple things! Love and serve everyone.  Love Like Jesus Love Hermana Peterson 

Keep Praying

Good Morning everyone! This week was a rough one. We have had a really hard time finding people to teach and then when we start teaching them they are more interested in us or English class. So we are on the grind trying to find people. Hopefully this week we will find them! Nothing too crazy happened this week! It was kinda just a normal week here. We have been trying to go to fun places for our studies so that was an adventure. Oh and I went to the eye doctor without my mom. I was soooo brave. That was probs the most exciting thing this week! Don't worry my glasses come this week then I can see where I'm driving at night. This Week I was thinking a lot about prayer. As a missionary I swear I pray 35000000 times a day! Whether its when we leave the house, about to call someone, have a lesson, literally any time. Honestly it's kinda just been a repeat of the same prayer over and over lately. We were teaching a lesson this week and we were talking about Prayer and that's...
