NEW AREA? 🤔🤔 - 23 February 2026

Hey y'all! Imma just jump into this week 🤙

This week we probably spent more time not in our area than in our area.👩🏼‍🦯👩🏼‍🦯 Jk not really but it felt like that. And lemme tell you why. 😮‍💨 We had to get our car serviced and when we called to schedule it last week they said it would be 4 HOURS long. The car dealership is in Porirua which isn't our area so we scheduled it for early in the morning and went to Denny's for breakfast 😛🫤 Honestly it was so mid the States is way better. After that we went to the library and studied and didn't end up getting our car back for 5 HOURS. 🥴 So they lied. THEN when we finally picked it up they said that we need to come back for tire replacements. 🙃🙃 💥💥

The next day we had some lessons and when we went to the library to meet up with one of our friends, we got talking with this guy Adrian who was just asking us some questions. Meanwhile, President and Sister Clark pull up and clipped us in action. 😹😹📸📸 Later we were doing some phone calls and a guy cussed me out and hung up. Stuff like that doesnt usually bother me but I highkey cried after it caught me so off guard. But I'm fine now we up! 🥲🙏 We had a lesson with one of our recent converts Melissa and she was literally ALL over the place doing tons of chores after she literally had told us the night before she tore her back?? It was literally so funny i was trying so hard not to laugh! 🤣

Back in Porirua the next day for our tires 🫠🫠 This time just went to the library again and it was only for two hours 🙂 Then we actually were BACK in Porirua a few hours later because we are planning on doing some service at this community center and we just met with the guy to talk about what we will be doing...so we will be back again this week lol 😆😆

We had a lesson with our friend Shanita and as soon as she opened the door she was RADIATING with light! This lesson was so incredible. I have seen such a change in her and she has grown so much! Our lesson was so spiritual she has such a strong faith and testimony its inspiring! She still is struggling with fears coming to church so everyone pray she will get there 🙏🙏

Had a lesson this week with the Thompson family. It was my first time meeting them but their family are members, just never come to church and their son Tamati is 9 and is unbaptized and is SO keen but he cant if they aren't coming to church 😪 I hope that they come so that he will be able to!! But they have a little daughter who is turning 2 and she is literally baby Moana irl. She is SO CUTE and she was giving me hugs I am genuinely so obsessed wow. Made me really miss my niece and nephews back home 🥹❤️‍🩹

Had another lesson with our friend Phillip who's 9 and unbaptized and we shared a little scripture story with him then played some uno. Let me tell you I was DYING. Bud wanted to deal and literally dealt more than half the deck out it was so funny. Oh and the +2 and +4 cards just didnt apply the way he was playin. Whatever rules you want babe 🤝🤝 But we were able to get him to come to church on Sunday AND stay for primary which was such a miracle for him and his family!! I hope he continues to progress and get to baptism that would be so awesome 🤩

Last miracle of the week was a referral we got named Konstantin! We messaged him and he showed up to church and he is super interested!! We were able to set up a lesson with him for this week and he already said he will be at church next Sunday too! He's so chill I cant wait to meet with him!! 🔥🔥

Anyways despite all our car drama this week we still had some miracles and I'm so stoked 😽😽😽 k wait also my emails are novels hello I'm so sorry fr 😅😅 ill try and cut them shorter next time.

Spiritual thought:

This is a quote from a talk we shared with one of our friends called "Yielding our Hearts to God" by Neill F. Marriott:

"If we earnestly appeal to God, He takes us as we are—and makes us more than we ever imagined."

The whole talk is so good 👏👏 but this quote I just love so much 🩷 yall should read 🤌🤌

Love y’all muchoooo! email me!!!!😛😛😛 (even if I lowk dont respond I swear I love them and read them lol)
