I hope all is well with you all and that you all had a great week! And a great Mother's Day! Mother's Day is awesome! Mothers are awesome! They are literally the greatest! My mom is truly the greatest of the greatest! I love her so much!
Well, this week was good. We attended a bootaki (party) for Mother's Day. We sang "Love is Spoken Here" and "Book of Mormon Stories". For the Book of Mormon Stories song we did a dance to go with it.... Dance... That is what we attempted. :) It is okay. The YSA made up for it by doing Kiribati dancing, which was amazing! :)
Great news, Teruatabu was baptized this week. Timeon, a branch member, baptized her. It was a great day!
I have learned that a good morning makes a good day. A great morning makes a great day. And so on.... I am doing my best to work on having better mornings so that each and every day is filled with energy and happiness and the Spirit. Win the Morning! Seize the Day! It is kinda hard to catch a ball when we have already let the first part pass right through our fingers. I am so happy that the Lord will bless us all according to our efforts. He will truly speak to us. He will guide our thoughts. If I go to Him in sincere prayer and talk about the day with Him, just as I would talk about the day after I got home from school, that is how I am learning to speak to our Father in Heaven. I am trying to speak as I would speak to my amazing earthly parents. I am seeing an increase in my love of God. Just an idea for how to pray. I know that God listens. I know that He loves us and cares for us!
I love you all! I know that my Redeemer, our Redeemer, lives! I know that God is our loving Heavenly Father and that He loves it when we talk to Him!
Love you and pray for you!
Keep on pressing on!
Hurrah for Israel!
