Week 34-First week of Nampa 2

We had a really fun week this week!
Sister Moa is so fun!! And we're getting abs from how much we laugh lol jk but we should because it's a lot.. 😂
Anyways, we live with Sister Tuku (short for Tukumoeatu- she's Samoan) and Sister Bentley, and it's so hard to go to bed on time 😂 But it's a lot of fun. (i.e. yesterday we learned how to hula dance until like midnight 😂). If there's one thing I'll come back from Idaho knowing how to do, hahah..

Also, we have an 11 y/o boy named Aidan on date to be baptized May 12 (the same date as the Subieno family in 20th ward, so if it all works out that's going to be a really fun day!). His mom wants to be baptized too, but we have to wait for some things to work themselves out before she can be. But, it'll happen soon enough, as they both have a lot of faith and really want to embrace the restored gospel of Jesus Christ so it can bless their lives! The dad grew up a member and came to church with the rest of the family for the first time in a while yesterday and it was cool to see them all progress together!

Also, yesterday at church I was asked to talk for 5 to 7 minutes and it was in President's ward- so that was scary.. But, he and Sister Sorensen are awesome, so it's good. As a missionary you always have to be prepared to answer any questions and share testimony and speak publicly, so thank heavens the Spirit is with us to help us, or I'd make a fool of myself all the time! 😂🙄 and even then..... 😌😅

But, I'm alive and well and excited for this next transfer! It's going to be fun, and sad that Sister Moa is going home after- she's the best. But, she's become a great missionary over the past 18 months she's served and I hope I'll learn a lot from her example of how to love everyone and just go with it. 😁

Have a great week!
