Sister Tyra Ludvigson

Best week ever! (It always is)

Holaaaaa!!!

I feel like each week I say "this has been my  favorite week of the mission!" Basically it's always a good week in the  WA-TAC haha.

Bike Day!!

-  Bahaha, I was so bummed to find out that there are no sister biking  areas (yet!), buttttt the Elders were awesome and let us switch them for  the day! Biking was such a blast! It felt easier to be more led by the  spirit (or by my butt needing a break tbh)

- We got a few honks and hollers haha, felt good to fit the full missionary base model

-  Our friend Oriana got a good laugh at us because when we were leaving  from our meeting I highkey almost fell getting on the bike (I hadn't  ridden a normal bike in years lol)

Spiritual Thought

Moroni 6:8 "But as oft as they repented and sought forgiveness, with real intent, they were forgiven."

How awesome is this promise from God!?! All we need is faith and real intent and we will ALWAYS be forgiven!!

Temple!!

-  This morning we got to go to the temple!! Yay!!! It was such a good  experience and definitely the spiritual food I needed to feast on! If  you haven't made it to the temple recently, GO!!!! They also recently  made some changes to the sessions and they are SO GOOD!!

Stories

-  The biggest tender mercy/win that I've had thus far was yesterday! My  comp let me lead out for most our interactions and we met this dude  Antonio outside cleaning his car (not even at his house) who grew up in  the church but switched it up since his move to the US. Basically he's  been looking (not very hard but still) for the church he was actually so  pumped to have found us! TM! And all in Spanish! And I fully understood  and led it!

- Ahhhh so Sunday we got a call like  right after church from this dude Fernando. Neither us nor the Elders  had the number on record anywhere, but he said he'd be down to meet with  us, so ofc we were pumped and pulled up! ...Bro was drunk - literally  mid reading out of the book of Mormon he opened a new beer... bahaha.  And because he was drunk, the conversation was everywhere and slurred so  I didn't have any clue what was going on lols. Dude asked us out to  dinner; then when Johnson said no, he asked just me, and to Johnson was  like "just leave her here for like an hour and come back and get her  after dinner." I was simply lost in the sauce and am so grateful for  companions haha. Needless to say, we will not be returning.

Tender Mercies

Dude this week was so full of them! Here's some favs

- met this dude Ven who seemed super interested in learning more!

-  had a 12 week meeting (extra training that us new missionaries get)  about planning with the spirit, then that whole day we were blessed with  guidance by the spirit!

- our pal Miguel gave us oranges! And also cried in front of us, he has such a strong faith!

- temple is always a TM!

- had the best member meal I think I'll ever get! And tried cactus!

- Our member Pals invited us over for pie one night and it was so yummy!

You guys are always the best!! Keep being awesome and being great examples!

Con mi todo corazón,

Hermana Luddie
