Don't worry, about a thing 🤙🏼

Happy Monday everyone and Aloha! This week was good. First off...we put Leilynn on date to be baptized on May 2!! Woo hoo! We found out the day after that both of her parents are actually members. So, it isn't a convert baptism. But the family is less active. 

We made two new friends this week, Beverly and Jim. Also, all of our friends except for three came to church yesterday! 😱 They just kept trickling in and we were so excited everytime we saw one of them walk in. Blessings for sure. This week also had its challenges. Things just kept happening that were hard and frustrating but I couldn't do anything about it so I had to remember that it was out of my control. I had to listen to Three Little Birds by Bob Marley A LOT this week haha. 

I've been reading Saints again on my mission and I'm on Saints volume 2 now. This week I read about George Q Cannon and the other missionaries who came to Hawaii. When they first got here, they dedicated themselves to the work and they dedicated the Hawaiian Islands for missionary work. Well, we still do that in this mission! Unfortunately because of COVID, I wasn't able to to do it. But right when missionaries arrive, the mission president and his wife take the missionaries to this spot on Oahu. It's called Tantalus! I've been there, but I wasn't able to do that with President and Sister Walker. But it was so cool to read more about that. 

Anyways, things are happening here that's for sure. I see blessings and tender mercies everyday and I'm so grateful for that. I love being a missionary! Have a great week everyone, love you all! 💛💛

I saw this on Facebook and loved it. I think it's so true:)

The rains came down, and the floods came up 🌧☔-- March 15, 2021

Aloha!! This week was kind of crazy...it was a hard week. I'm not sure if you all saw, but Hawaii had severe rainfall and floods this week on all of the Islands. It was scary. We drove a lot this week and I thought for sure we'd get into an accident a few times because of the rain. Two men even died on Maui from a landslide. Crazy stuff.  The weather made us hecka depressed so that was kind of hard. We taught Lacey and Laylynn again on Friday! Lacey asked if Laylynn can get baptized in May..of course we said yes haha. But we're a little concerned because we think that Lacey just wants to baptize her just to baptize her. Clearly we want her to be baptized and converted to the church, not just baptized just because. Laylynn does not want to be baptized either. So it's a work in progress. Honestly, not much happened this week because of the weather.  We did meet with a couple in our ward, the Brown's. They were the Mission President and wife of the Alpine, Germany miss...

We say "a hui hou" not "Aloha oe" -- February 22, 2021

Aloha!! Well, I am being transferred off Lanai...and I'm going to KAUAI!! I found out last Sunday that I would be leaving Lanai. President Walker said he woke up in the middle of the night and had a distinct impression that I needed to be somewhere else. I was not expecting that at all! I was told that I was going to be on Lanai for a while. I was actually excited to stay in Lanai because the work started progressing. But they're sending two awesome Filipino Elders over. One of the Elders coming, Elder Obando, has already served on Lanai for seven months and he's coming back ahaha. But he's awesome and the members here love him. So, we figured that I'd be going to Big Island because a ton of Sisters are leaving there..so I figured I'd go there or to Maui. But I was not expecting Kauai at all because they just put new sisters there. It's kind of interesting because there will be four of us sisters serving in the same ward. So we're kind of in a quad but m...
