Wow how is it SEPTEMBER! Time is flying!! Here in Raiatea it’s ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!! BUTTTTT I got EATEN ALIVE by mosquitos this week! So that was crazy! My feet are just covered in bits! Then I also got a super bad canker sore on my cheek and literally it hurts to eat! But hey I’m living my best life and all is well!

Now for some Highlights from this week:

– Had my first lessons this week here with our amis and they went great! We have some progress to make with them but they are so sweet and so excited to get to be here with them! 

– We were blessed with rain this week because it was so hot and then the rain cooled us off! But one day we were completely drenched! But it was fun!

– HUGE MIRACLE! We have this amie who lived in Hitiaa on the presqu’île by Taravao where I started my mission on Tahiti and we went to go do a visit with a new convert and I saw her and was like wait I know her! Turns out it was her and she had moved here to Raiatea! Literally 8 months later now in her secteur! I literally went to her baptism! Super crazy!

– Got to talk with Tanner or now Elder LeBaron for his first P-day and it was great to talk with him and know that’s he’s absolutely killing it!! Love him so much and so so so proud of him! 

– Had a beautiful fast Sunday and got to bear my testimony! It was great and it was about the beautiful miracles in our life and how we need to have the eyes to see the beautiful little ones everyday! 

– Joyeux Anniversaire to my amazing brother Tyler! Love you buddy and I had a beautiful call with him! 

– My new companion Elder Tenney is so amazing and we made a goal that before he leaves Avera we are going to have a baptism and so we are going to work so hard to get it and help our amis be ready! He finishes in December and most likely will get transferred next transfer so we are going to seek and expect miracles and as Elder Pearson said, “Take Massive Action”!

That’s about it for this week but it really flew by and can’t believe it’s already another P-day! Something that has really stuck out to me lately is miracles and how many we can see each day if we truly have the eyes to see them! Like the Prophet Russel M Nelson said in his talk “The Power of Spiritual Momentum” that we need to “Seek and Expect Miracles” that the Lord is there to manifest His hand in our lives more than ever before and if we truly have the eyes to see we see many miracles daily! I can testify of miracles and that They are here and bless us daily! I will talk to you all again in a short week! I love you all SO MUCH!!!! And miss you all like crazy!!! Beaucoup d’amour! Ua here au ia outou! Faaitoito!💙
