Dressed in White

hi everyone !! it has been such a GREAT week :) 
2 of our friends were dressed in white this weekend as they were baptized & confirmed members on Saturday !! 
- Damian was first & he was so sweet when he got to bear his testimony. only 10 years old but he had so much to offer to the Lord that day. I had the wonderful opportunity to be with him every step of the way in this baptism, I love little kids & how much they love Jesus Christ !!! 
- Cilla was next !! she is so amazing. she is expecting a baby boy in a few weeks so she really wanted to push for Saturdays date so that they could eventually be sealed in the temple. I am so so proud of her !! she enveloped everything so easily & to hear the things she was doing without nagging or pushing was truly special. I'm grateful for her example she set to me by her determination !! 

we also got to top the week off by visiting the Newport Beach Temple. my soa went inside but I stayed outside with our friend, Ahzira. this girl is fr my best friend !! if you ever wanna know what she's like...just imagine a California version of me lol🤣 there's honestly nothing I love more than to watch people feel the spirit...and seeing one of my close friends do so, is such an underrated blessing !!
I invited her to do a 2 week detox from all things that God would disapprove of && she IS doing it so effortlessly !! we talk every single day, she participates in a church related activity everyday, studies & prays each day.....and I've already witnessed such a change in her & it only started 4 days ago !! So, I'm very proud of her <33 and plus, we got to go play mini golf with her & her family so that was also fun !! 

I hope you're doing wonderful at home ! the weeks are getting closer to the day. Some days I'm sad & other days I'm excited lol !! Love you all, have a blessed week!

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...
