Welcome to the Mission Blog
In March of 2025, I decided to serve a two year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It wasn’t an easy decision and one that has required a lot of sacrifice, but in turn I have witnessed so many miracles and received many blessings. Stay up to date with me and my mission on this blog or fill out the form below to get added to my email list. :)
I Usually Suck at Crossy Road
Hey friends! We are back. Quick week, actually it felt like a million years, BUT I hit 2 months! At least I got that going for me.
I am (almost) a Brazil Crossy Road pro. Which is crazy because I always rage quit Crossy Road but the amount of times I have shamelessly stepped out in front of cars or casually strolled across the street is way too many. Anyways…
45 Minute Unskippable Cutscene
A 45 minute unskippable cutscene, that is what this past two weeks has felt like and it's what this email is about to be for you (except you can skip it, I'll try not to be offended).
First off, some house keeping, now that I am in the field, some things have changed. My P-days are now Mondays so that is when my emails, responses, and photos will come. I don’t have access to Messenger during the week so if you want to contact me the best way is through email so I can read it :).
From Your Fellow Slovenian
Uhh so this is the final email from the CTM, I guess. It doesn't feel real. You're telling me it's been 40 days already and in 5 days I'll be in the field… teaching… at least listening. Idk how much teaching will be done, might have to leave that to my trainer.
Oh yes and I'm Slovenian. I got my legalization documents on Thursday and they messed mine up and put my birth country as Slovenia… so if I get deported, that's why. Jk jk I shouldn't have any issues, it should be fixed by the time I get to my mission home.
A Taste of American Freedom
I'm officially one month old. Crazy I know. Only 23 left but who's counting.
We got to go out into the real world this week!! They finally let us wander the streets for P-day after some stalker dude made us have to stay at the CTM. We hit up this steak house that was fogo (fire) and were free for once, hence the subject.
Crashout City
Hey friends! I'm alive… I think… I don't really know. Everything feels like a fever dream.
Ice Cubes and Fubecas. Also Sister Aguilar??
Two things: I told myself I wouldn't write excessively long emails because no one would read them but… yeah this one is LONG. It's good though and I'll work on length I promise. Also this email is being written way late so if it's not very good, apologies.
Baptism by Fire (literally and figuratively)
Hey friends!
How does one write emails? I have read so many emails but now that I have to write one I have no clue where to start... oh well I guess we are both in for a treat.
