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 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...

Choose to Stay ...

hello my family and friends♡ I miss each one of you so much !! I love each of you as well. I have been searching every reason as to why I'm here. Why am I apart of this church? Why am I a member? Why do I decide to go to church every Sunday? Why did I decide to make covenant(s) with God? **Why do I choose to stay?** For me Ive noticed the gospel has given me structure. It is something that allows me to recognize there is greater potential in myself as well as in others. I feel like I have been stripped to the core by trials and its only been 2 months in my mission waaa hahah. Every aspect of my testimony is being tested and every detail of it is being questioned and tried by God to strengthen me and my testimony further. IT. IS. HARD. Despite these challenges and trials, I choose to stay because of the feelings I have received from God testifying of this gospel. No matter the experiences, no matter the trials, no matter the hurt, anger, shame, hatred, envy, and sorrow that we can e...

Changes and miracles

good morning everyone!  It was a great week full of changes. ☆ The biggest change tho? Tahia became a member of the church of Jesus christ of latter day saints aka she was baptized !! it was a day we have been long awaiting for & I am so proud of her; she really is like a baby sister to me :')  ☆ we got put into a trio with Sister Bradfield from TX  ☆ and the Fourth of Julyyyy !! My favorite holiday; the best day ever....but not in CA. nothing will beat Soda lol....it was pretty sucky here. We spent the day with Tahia's baptism but then at night did nothing; my comps didn't wanna watch the fireworks so I sat in our somewhat open parking lot just listening to the fireworks that sounded like WWIII -- still a very good one <3 !!  I saw so many miracles this week and one being --> I was having a few tough days this last week. From Tuesday - today 🤣 lol But it was super tough for me and one day I stepped outside for my personal study & just cried my eyes ou...
