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

Pushin Through!

TALOFFFAAA!  it was a pretty alright week. I was really ran down into the ground aka exhausted from the week prior. My body really gave out on me & I got sick for a few days so I was out of the work for a second. But I'm back, lively as ever lol! This week was really hard honestly. On top of being sick, I found out one of the families I am close with from Long Beach, the dad is on his death bed. I struggled knowing this but God really pulled me thru. It was everything to me to be reminded of His wonderful plan of salvation. I feel so blessed to be in this gospel !  Some things that happened this week ☆ i got called up last minute to speak in stake conference . . . it went well lol ! I am a fan of public speaking so :) but I was very stressed. The spirit was telling me to go thru my study journal the entire meeting & I just KNEW I was going up to bear testimony but it wasn't until last minute the stake president had announced my name lol.  ☆ we had a talent night w...

Miraclllllles

Such an amazing week !! as the weeks pass on I'm getting worst & worst at writing these lol. But it was such a great week that I couldn't skip it !! There were so many miracles.  ☆ One of our friends baptism, Athena, keeps having her date pushed back because her grandma was stuck in Alaska. So, we fasted on Sunday then two days later the grandma came home !! #blessed she has a solid date of next Saturday.  ☆ Our member kept texting us to visit this random household & we finally found the time to do it a few days later. We showed up & they were so sweet !! The Letele family told us our member invited them to our wards Father Day Dance which is why they gave our member their address and number . . . I'll tell you right now there is no Fathers day dance . . . Bahahah but they're very interested ☆ We have a group of kids we are trying to teach from the same family (Schuster & Faletoi) & they randomly hit us up bc their mom invited us to their family gath...

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...
