I’m not sure where to start! What an amazing week! I thought it would a lot harder this week because my family is moving away from Spokane Washington and my parents are finishing their mission there! And leading up to it I have been so scared that I would be crazy homesick but literally a MIRACLE happened this week! I didn’t think about it once and had so much peace and literally has been the biggest blessing! The Lord literally always fills in the gaps and can truly give you “strength no known to men”! So that was a very big miracle this week! But let’s dive in to some beautiful experience that I had!!

Highlights from this Week:

-Fatams with Blanc and we had a very powerful lesson after and it’s amazing to see him progressing like he’s been! He’s super interested and getting so close to being ready to be baptized!

-Got to eat a KIWI🥝!!!!!! IT WAS SO GOOD! It’s been so long and literally was the greatest! It was during a fatams and I literally was so happy!!!

-I got to see Kaia Colombel!!! He was at the temple with President Colombel and so he was waiting out in the bench area next to the temple and so we got to talk for a little and catch up! Great miracle to see him and man do I love their family!!

-Got adopted by a Tahitian Mamie(Grandma) who we make hats with! Her name is Mamie Betty and we had a little visit with her to help prepare her for the temple and while we were there she told us how much she loves us and how we are like her sons! It was the sweetest and I love her literally so much!!

-Fatams at Burger King 👑🍔 with the Family Taumata who is one of my favorite families here in Fautaua and it was so great to be with them and then got to eat yummy food! 

-Activity with our Ward and it was so fun and all about the Book of Mormon! Our amis came and it was amazing to all be together learning more about the importance of that book in our lives!

-GOT TO GO TO A SEALING! Words can’t describe that beautiful experience that I got to go and see a Sealing at the temple with the amis that my companion taught in his first secteur on his mission and seeing that their family was sealed for all time and eternity and to show that this is our goal and efforts of why I’m here to help all the people her to have the same!

-Found 4 new amis this week and 2 were through a member reference and now teaching his grandchildren with him as the member indicator and literally is incredible! A huge miracle this week!!

That’s about it for this week but filled with beautiful miracles and literally all 100% about my focus and there was a quote that really stood out to me during my studies and it was by Elder Uchtdorf and it said, “the Lord has never required expert, flawless missionary efforts. Instead, ‘the Lord requireth the heart and a willing mind’” and it really has helped me because I’ve been kinda hard on myself lately being like oh I don’t know enough French or oh I’m not teaching the best that I could be or things like that which are negative and then I read this quote and it shows that what matter is where is my heart and mind! Focus on the positive and love everyone! That is the key and to know that that’s all that He’s asking of me! Not if I can speak perfectly or teach perfectly but to love everyone and try my best daily! This gospel is so beautiful and brings me so so much JOY!!! Every day is filled with miracles and blessings from God and if you really have the eyes to see you’ll see Him in ever detail of our lives! Keep trying everything to Him and He will always fill in the gaps! I love you all SO MUCH!!!! And miss you all!!! Beaucoup d’amour! Ua here au ia outou! Faaitoito!💙
