Sister Leilani Kalona Finlayson

malo e lelei !!   talofa !! A really cool week! I gave a talk yesterday & Dinah Jane (from 5th Harmomy) was there. I had no idea tho. Hahah, her & i talked for like 10 minutes and it wasn't until I got into the car that I realized who she was...my biggest fear came true hahah...being next to a celebrity without even knowing it.  But oh well. This last week was pretty weird though. We visited with a friend on 4.20 but he was super high. So as we were walking with him, we ran into this guy that after talking with him, he really needed to hear about the plan of salvation. Then later in the week we went to a 13 yr olds birthday party to convince 2 of our friends mom to let the kids be baptized in a polynesian ward & not a palangi one hahah. It was odd to say the least, but there was yummy food so I cannot complain! Not a whole lot, but have a great week !! Love yall !! sister fin <3   2500 N Bristol St Santa Ana, CA 92706 - service project for dogs - esperanza!! she'

Blessed week !! Too many funny quotes that I could include in this week's email but my favorite was probably my companion & I walking down the street and a complete stranger yelling, "yall be looking foreign walking down that street" hahah, weird way to hit on someone but very complimentary sir. We were extremely busy . . . As usual !! we never get lunch time, or dinner time. or even breakfast because we are constantly on the go. so we feel extremely blessed that our members will shop for us, feed us, and LOVE us !! never met more giving & loving people. last week I commented on a ladys Tongan dress & yesterday at church she handed me a bag and it was that dress she was wearing !!   But, we have a couple of our friends on date. Athena, May 8th. Deon & Kiana for April 28. And we are working with Lawrence & Lulu right now :) They are all so SWEET ! They're all young too which makes it better because they get to begin the covenant path at a young age

This is a long one, sorry. But welcome to my food blog !! I get fed like a queen here in Anaheim. The Polynesians know how to cook, love, and especially cook with love. Sister Satini and I have realized we are getting fed sooooo muchhhhh so we started working out at night too. We got a pretty legit apt with a sauna and gym, so we got super lucky and it'll help a lot with all this food hahah. I lost my wallet for 5 days and I didn't even notice because I have gotten fed multiple meals every single day . . . I think its God's apology for putting me in a YSA where I was scraping the ground for crumbs and fighting the mice for dinner. Lol. Another cool thing was some maintenance guy walked into our apartment and randomly gave us $40. That will be going towards my eyelash extention funds hahahah. Jk...kinda. All I'm saying is catch my pics next week 🙏🏼   But onto the actual missionary work stuffz!! Its been BUSY. We get up at 6am to play ball with a group of people, &
