Happy Holidays

Happy holidays everyone !!

this week was so great. since I got to visit my favorite family for Christmas, the Mallette's!! we have been soooo crazy busy trying to keep up with everything in social media...it is basically a 24/7 job that even on p days we dont stop working hahah. we had plenty of meetings, filming, and running around for 6 days straight. monday didnt  feel like p day, tuesday and wednesday were pure chaos, and thursday was wild...yet I still found a lot of joy in all of it !! Being able to celebrate the birth of the Savior with little distraction was actually very neat.There is peace in the fact that all you need is the Savior. I have been so humbled by the experiences I have had here on my mission, and I am grateful for what I am learning! There are so many changes happening to missionary work, and as hard as it is, I am grateful to be a part of the learning/transitioning part of it!! since i wanna keep it short, i'll just bullet point two of my favorite things of the week lol

-my comp is vegan and the Mallettes LOVE their meat hahaha and two of my favorite quotes from them this week to my comp are -- "what do you eat besides air?" and "I love salad too...but with a pound of beef on the side"

-we made a video for our zone that was car karaoke and our word was 'Red" so everyone dressed up in red, and of course after they streamed our video they played the zones video whose word was reverence hahah probably a 'had to be there moment' honestly.

-i got to go to a drive-in movie/concert !! it was really neat and very uplifting !! 


but anyways !! hope you all have a great week !!

love you all,

sister fin <3

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...
