What's up famiglia, hope everyone is doing good and getting excited to go back to school aka ZOOM !! Anyways, don't let my subject line scare you cuz I actually didn't get corona this week but we had a close call lol. A member texted us Sunday night and told us she texted positive for the Rona...and so we got really worried cause we knew we had been in contact with her daughter and thought we were gonna be quarantined. I don't think I've ever said so many prayers in one day hahaha I was so bummed thinking we were gonna be stuck inside for 2 weeks. But Heavenly Father pulled through and answered our prayers:) The nurse told us that since we were only in contact with the daughter we should be fine to still work but just be cautious. Blessings people, blessings.  This week was good! We did a lot of service which was super fun:) We helped a member family move, helped a member's friend load a storage unit and (of course) did some weeding. I'm so grateful to be ab...

Ciao my wonderful family and friends!! I miss you all and hope everyone is staying safe and healthy:) Honestly this week went by in 2 seconds and I can barely remember what happened but it was good!  -For district counsel we played that gross jelly bean game (Bean Boozled)  and I bet this elder in my district to eat a HUGE handful of them all at once...and of course he had to do it cuz he thinks he's a big tough guy...couldn't do it though HA. It was so hilarious he was gagging and crying -We have been talking to this lady named Joy! Shes has such a hard life and has been through a lot. When we see her we just spend the whole time building her up & complimenting her and she just loves us for it. Last week she goes: "Stop making me feel so good! You're gonna make me wanna go to church with you!" This week she goes: "What time is church on Sunday? Can I sit with you guys?" Made me heart skip a beat:) I just love God's children!! -We had some succes...

Ciao a tutti! I survived week 2 and lemme just say I finally understand what missionaries mean when they say the days are so long but the weeks fly by! I feel like I've been here in Colorado for 5 years but also 2 seconds at the same time HA (nothing better than a good exaggeration). Anyways, this week was good and I finally feel like I'm getting the hang of everything! We had a zone meeting on Wednesday which was fun because I got to meet all the missionaries in our zone. The ZLs talked a lot about having spiritual power and being recognized as representatives of Christ. It's amazing to think that I am literally standing in the place of the Savior. Doing His work and inviting others to become like Him. SO COOL! We also talked about Facebook finding and how to act natural and friendly over Facebook--lol instead of just scaring everyone off by stalking their profiles and asking random questions like: "I see you like to ski! I love to ski too! Anyways do you believe in J...

CIAO A TUTTI AND HOWDY Y'ALL! Coming at you live from Firestone Colorado...a small little town with more corn fields and cows than actual people😅 My first week in the field has been great! Harder than I ever thought, 500 years long, but all together wonderful. My trainer Sister Aiono is the greatest. The second I walked into the room of trainers on the first day I saw her and literally said a prayer that she would be my comp! She's so sweet, hard working, Christlike and most importantly POLYNESIAN. I couldn't have dreamed up a better fit for me:) She's from Taylorsville Utah but her family is Samoan. She served in Australia for about 2 months before Covid and has only been in Colorado for only 1 transfer! Yet she's training me and doing amazing. Also she always tells me I'm polynesian at heart which makes me happy. BIKES. I've never had such a love-hate relationship with anything before. We live about a 45 minute bike ride from our area and we have to make ...

CIAO A TUTTI! I hope everyone is having a bomb summer and doing lots of boating and swimming for me! This week was probably my most favorite week of the MTC so far. L'ultimo settimana...the last week:/ I honestly had no idea that I would be this sad to "leave" the MTC (aka log off of zoom for the last time) *tears!* I couldn't have asked for a better MTC experience and I wouldn't change a single thing. I know that I was supposed to meet every person in my district and learn from each of their testimonies. We all became best friends and had the funnest times. I know that I needed to be taught by my wonderful teachers, Fratello Nordgran and Fratello Young--who I'm convinced were the greatest missionaries of all time. I learned so many lessons and principles from them that I will never forget. I know for a fact that I was supposed to be in my Power Trio with Sorella Kroff and Nydegger:) I'm forever grateful for our unbreakable friendship and can't wa...

First month down as a missionary WAHOOO I feel like time has flown by but at the same time I am more than ready to get out of my house and start teaching in the field! Quick update of the past 2 weeks:  I got temporarily reassigned to the Fort Collins Colorado Mission! I am super stoked to go and feel so blessed to be leaving on July 21-just three days after I finish the MTC. I feel great about this reassignment and know that there are people in Colorado being prepared to meet me! I'm still hopeful to get to Italy soon, but happy to serve the Lord wherever he needs me. I know that the gospel is needed everywhere and every person deserves to hear this wonderful message. We taught another Italiano lesson to Matthew and it went great! Besides the fact that he wanted to know about the Plan of Salvation but we haven't learned any of the words for that lesson yet....showbiz baby! We taught him a great lesson about how the gospel brings us happiness, even duri...

Ciao and aloha mia famiglia! Thank you guys so much for coming today and supporting me! Honestly, I was pretty sad when I found out I wouldn’t be able to have a farewell talk, but we decided that this is the next best thing! And let’s face it, we all hate sitting through that final speaker anyway! Also, I’m so glad none of you showed up in masks so I can actually see your smiling familiar faces! Like you all probably know, I have been called to serve in the Italia, Milano mission. This week I got temporarily reassigned to the Fort Collins, Colorado mission and will leave on July 21! I have been participating in the Online MTC for the past month and it has been amazing. Even with the weird circumstances that I am currently in, I truly love being a missionary. Ever since I was a little girl I have always wanted to go on a mission. In fact, I didn’t even know that girls had the choice of not going! My mom never missed an opportunity to talk about missions. Looking back now, I’m pretty ...
