One more week

September 14, 2020
This week was fun! Lots of service and teaching!
We taught Paola a lot this week. She loves the gospel. I love watching her testimony grow! She has such a love for the book of mormon.
Weve been teaching her mom too! She has so many questions so it's been taking some time to answer all of them.
This week at the herman park gardens we laid down barrels and barrels of pine needles to make everything look nice. I am soooo grateful for modern medicine. I would've been dying from all the dust and dirt flying around. At the japanese gardens I was cleaning the ponds and this duck was giving me sass and I was like wut? Huh? You wanna fight!?? And then it stands up and it was on top of 15 eggs!! I was like sorry ma'am I will leave you only. It didnt attack at all but it was still super funny.
We did service for a charity called house of charity! We had a school drive for underprivileged kids. Hna Eagar and I were in charge of handing out school books for kids to read and color! It was so much fun! Unfortunately we were the only booth in the sun so we got destroyed. I'm not kidding. We got fried.
So at the charity event, new stations arrived and started filming us. Idk which channel and such but I was on the news so be on the lookout for that! I also spoke with the General Consulate of Pakistan. That was very fun too. Lots of people filmed me while I talked with him about the books we were handing out. I peaked in life hahah
Yesterday I watched the face to face with elder and sister rasband. If you havent seen it, I would encourage yall to go watch it. I loved how they talked about the proclamation and recieving our own testimonies. As we read the scriptures and focus on christ, I know that we can receive our own witnesses to the teachings of christ. And sometimes we may have to rely on other people's testimonies but as we try to find the truth we will be able to stand on our own.
Love you all! Hope you are safe and doing good things!

April 5, 2021 Hello! This week has felt like 3 weeks. It's been a long one. Not much happened so it's been pretty boring but here are a few of our adventures. We helped make an Easter Video for our facebook page. We helped out at our ward Primary Easter Egg hunt. One kid went hunting before it even started and took all of the eggs! So hna Ralphs and I successfully took his basket and hid all the eggs again 30 seconds before the hunt started. We were able to talk with a ton of ward members at the Easter egg hunt and meet so many members who had gone off the grid when covid started. It was a fun time! We watched conference! We were able to go to a members' home to watch it. While there, their huge cat came and sat on my notebook and on me and wouldnt move. Their cat was sooo sassy and kept walking all over our notes. Other than that, we had a really boring week. Nothing exciting happened. I hope everyone had a great time watching conference! If you havent seen it...

March 2, 2020 When you think you’ve hit rock bottom, you can only go up right... wrong. I can’t remember my favorite lines from the Grinch. I’m devastated. It was terrible. I was quoting the Grinch because the moment was right and I couldn’t remember the quote and now I eat brownies to drown my sorrows. IM NOT ACTUALLY SAD IM OK. This week was really good! Here is the update with our investigators. Augastina her baptism fell through because her mom has to keep working on her baptism it's very hard to get in contact with her mom. Augastina is a 9 year old girl who is very good! Alfred BAPTISM DATE! We taught Alfred about baptism after church this Sunday and he wants to get baptized! He is very excited. April 11th. We know it is very far out but there is a language barrier. He can only speak creole, French and a little Spanish so it takes a bit to explain everything and we want to make sure he understands everything. Alfred is like a 6’5” hatiano with literally the biggest he...
