TALOFA, MALO E LELEI!!

TALOFA !! MALO E LELEI !! 🥰
I have forgotten the last few weeks to send an email...oopsies ! idk where I left off but I am having a great time out here. Today is the beginning to an ending. I will be coming home in 6 weeks aka it's my last transfer !! Thinking about it...IM TIRED 🤣 but pressing forward ! the last few weeks have been crazy good but honestly not a whole lot to note on. 

☆ ahzira came to the conclusion that the church is true because of a spiritual experience she had while visiting her grandma's grave. IT WAS AMAZING. but then things took a turn really quickly SO this last week she did her very own fast !! WHAT !! we will be checking on her this upcoming week to see how it went :) 

☆ Chris & Jazmine !! they're doing great. they are planning a wedding so that they can be baptized immediately after. but then some things went down with paperwork so they postponed the wedding thus postponing the baptism :( sad days. HOWEVER ! Jazmine finally had her baby which is the cutest lil boy ever !! it made me kinda homesick for my lil ones at home 🥰 

☆ && lastly, HAPPY late HALLOWEEN ! I hope you all enjoyed it. I sure did !! we had 3 trunk or treats to cover and it sure was busy. I met some amazing people, reconnected with a few friends, and witnessed many blessings and miracles. 

truly, I'm grateful for the opportunity to witness God's love for His children. being out here is so humbling and truly a great experience !! I have learned more than enough times that the LORD. LOVES. EFFORT. I fall short every single day of my duties & potential...yet as I strive to do what I can handle, I see so many miracles !! God recognizes our weaknesses & helps us overcome them. He is always anxiously waiting to bless you !! Happy Holidays now, woohoo !! 

xoxo, manuia le vaiaso !!

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 ...

Never Forgotten

One thing I wanted to share with you all was my experience of God testifying to me that He does know me, my worries, needs, everything. Its such a simple, short story but before I flew out here, I journaled on August 1 (I flew out August 3) about how I was only nervous that I'd be at the airport alone and no one would be there to pick me up (🤣) It might seem silly to most of you but to me it was a genuine concern because at that moment it felt like God had forgotten about me already. Everything that was going on really made me question whether He remembered me let alone knew about my existence. I obviously told no one this silly little thing that worried me. I prayed that night that at least one other missionary would be flying with me in case I was forgotten, but when I got there, not. a. single. other. missionary. was. there. So here I am thinking, I am alone. I am forgotten. God must hate me. Oh my gosh why did I come. All of these silly little thoughts🤣🤣 But this past Thursd...

Change and Hope!!

hello everyone !!!  I hope you have had an amazing week. There are some big big changes coming this week, I'm sad and happy! I will be transferring to a YSA Ward with 2 new companions...that's 8 companions total for me now...in 6 months hahaha! Crazy. I was released from social media & I am SO SAD. I got a new assignment though and it should be fun. This week has been full of so many laughs and cries. We have a toilet paper problem I think. We have to go to the church OFTEN to go get some toilet paper. We got caught by our AP's (assistants to the president) and they died laughing. I will spare you the details but man, such good times! There are so many ups and downs of serving a mission. Honestly, I question why anyone, including myself, ever wanted to serve a mission hahah. But even through the difficulties, I can find those daily evidences of Heavenly Father in my life. He is in the VERY details of my life. I know that in the end it will be worth it. It doesn't ma...
