Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas family & friends !! 

I hope each of you have the best week ever!


This week was pretty dang crazy. The other night we hit up our AP's and asked if we could get a Rav4 and since we are all really close, we got the car like 8 hours later, it was the best. But it came at a cost so that was lame. We had a very unfortunate event happen but I won't entertain you with the details, you all would know too much 😂 however, we did have some great things done for social media. missionary work is still the same, the only difference is that missionaries are doing their jobs more efficiently!! the way that missionary work is now, is so much better than how it was prior to covid. I talk to like 100 people a day just on Instagram and have SOOOO many conversations, my eyes begin to burn after looking at a screen for so long haha. but this is definitely where I am meant to be right now. I love it in social media, but I sure do miss teaching a lot !! Teaching will always have an added joy to it that social media can't fill honestly! Since we aren't focused on teaching I have no BIG updates, so I just hope you all have the best holidays ever !! Remember the Savior at the center of it all. 

Also, I just wanted to add this quote because it is so good. 

"Being human, we would expel from our lives physical pain and mental anguish and assure ourselves of continual ease and comfort, but if we were to close the doors upon sorrow and distress, we might be excluding our greatest friends and benefactors"


MERRY CHRISTMAS <33


love you all,

I ate horse

happy week !! time means nothing apparently bc its going so fast. this week was so good. we found 4 new families to teach & im so excited for all of them bc they're definitely solid !! one of the people was found bc we hecka broke his ankles. he challenged us to a game of bball with his nephew Esaia & even though Sister Satini & I were in dresses, we still won .... 3x bahaha. The deal was he had to come to church & let us teach him 2 lessons so it was worth it. God was on our side for sure 🙏🏼   Also, I got to eat horse this week for the first time and it was delicious but made me super sad lol. Poor horsey. Anyways, I am doing great & miss you all so much !! I have learned so much about God's love for me. God helped me get thru some hard trials in the last few months and I am so thankful to know that He delivers us in all things.

Saviors light

Hi everyone ! This is such a late email, but I just wanted to send a quick letter home !!  This week was, as always, full of miracles. I witnessed God's hand & promises unfold as this week we really dedicated ourselves to His work. Well, we had no choice BUT to do His work this week lol. I am in the best ward ever !! They are all so missionary minded && keep us very, very accountable. I am stressed, anxious, exhausted, but never has time felt so fast & joyful. Every night I'd get about 4 hours ( IF I WAS LUCKY ) of sleep. One day I was up for 21 hours just doing work & it was the most energized I felt all week. I look back on this week truly shocked. Because no way could I have done what we did without the Lord strengthening & enabling me !! Our Samoan ward has 522 members plus our Tongan ward has 200 - 300 ish members. SO, we made it a goal to meet everybody in both wards. In addition to that, the stake president asked if we could invite members on ever...
