Happiest Place on Earth...

It was such a BUSY week !! first off I just wanted to flex that we got to go to Disneyland on p day. never been there so that was cool. you can definitely be jealous of this mission...just kidding🤣 we had zone conference and I just want to add that Hermana Siepert is a FANTASTICCC actor :') It really does feel good to have that piece of home nearby <3 My zone didn't believe me that I knew her so I pulled up super old pics of us from like middle school saying this is US believe me hahaha. Anyways, my second day here we got to put Charles on date for baptism. He is such a sweet guy. He was a self referral and he is SO proud of his 15 yr old daughters artwork. She has autism and honestly they are two wonderful people that Ive enjoyed meeting! And guess what!! He is getting baptized in a jacuzzi because he doesn't want to be cold after he is submerged.... in 80° weather... he asked for the hot tub to be over 100° ..... you could say its freezing here huh? Also, my first house/lesson EVER was at a members house and they are from Soda Springs and Montpelier 😂 So needless to say that was a funny and memorable reunion we had.


Hahaha but so many amazing things are happening. Members are a blessing to us, they hasten the Lords work by tenfold seriously. I encourage each of you to pray for inspiration of who, out of your friends or people you know, may need the message of the Restored gospel and contact your missionaries !! We are on limited access to everything, but YOU MEMBERS are not!! We need YOUR help. I have learned so much from other missionaries and members. One thing I've recognized is that there is a reason for everything. God has a plan for each of us and they are designed so intricately and perfectly. It has been HARD hearing investigators stories and experiences of what they have had to go through, but all of their trials led them to reach out to Christ. Which is exactly where we are supposed to be!! I thought I had it hard not getting a shirt at TJ Maxx from my parents hahaha, but boy!! Life is SO different when Christ isn't involved in someone's life honestly. Which is why we need to do ALL we can to help others. I don't have much else to say or much time either unfortunately. But I love each of you :) I have had so many spiritual and uplifting moments already and cannot wait for MORE ! 


hope you have an amazing week!

SO my soa & I (comp & I) were walking around temple grounds in Newport Beach which is covered by a different mission. (Yes we have permission to go there). We saw a lot of missionaries & we took our tags off because we didn't feel like talking with any of them (it was a ROUGH week for us to say the least) & yet somehow some elders managed to talk to my soa while I was looking at the temple. She walks away with them & I was like ?!...

I loved this week

This week was one for the books !! It was a crazy busy week & the days just flew by. I realized I don't share too much about my week or anything too spiritual lol but that can change !! So to start off, Monday night our entire mission got chastised by the president lol. Then Wednesday, Thursday, & Friday we had exchanges & Sunday we had a baptism with David !!   It was a week of A LOT of self reflection & seeing the areas I can improve . . . plus a lot of fun !!   This weeks exchanges I got to be with Sister Ratcliff, Sister Mattice, and Sister Ware !! I learned a lot from each sister & since it was a self reflecting week...I asked each sister & every return missionary member what they learned from their missions && believe it or not, every single one of them said they learned their identity as a daughter of God. It was tender to hear because I do forget my identity as Heavenly Fathers daughter, very often. Seeing the past experiences of my miss...

Absence

The clock strikes 12:47am. My companions rush hurriedly to the door. I make my way down the stairs, trying not to fall asleep. As I felt the cool air brush against my face, I pull my blanket to me, angrily mumbling. I stare at the asphalt covered in droplets of rain but when I eyes revert to whats ahead of me, I deeply longed to go back in time 20 seconds prior. My heart sunk deep in my stomach as if it was the titanic. I look to my phone and the word 'absence' appeared as my daily common word from the Word Web app. I chuckled at how ironic this vocabulary applied to my very situation in the moment.   Our car was absent.   We won't go into detail but we actually found our car hahah after like 20 mins, we are just dumb ! I actually laughed so hard when I saw the word absence though because I truly felt called out by my own phone haha. But it was a wild adventure... I got to spend the night at some sisters apartment on the hardwood floor. Got 3 hours of sleep with a 6 hour me...
