Yohhh what it do fam,


The subject title just be a whole vibe on its own. Since all us missionaries waiting for our MSF. We be eating air 🤣 nah jkjk.


This past week was a week LOL. We had exchanges with the STLs (Sister Training Leaders) on Monday and Tuesday. I stayed in my area, Kawama, with Sister Lewis while my companion went to the STLs area with Sister Wunganai. I guess we decided we were powerful that day because we took the Elders bikes and was in that Lord of the Rings, "WE RIDE," & "FRIKK IT, WE BALL" mode... YOHHHH no wonder why the Elders so easily agreed to us taking their bikes because when the uphill started uphill-ing, ya girl was fighting for her life. 🫡 Me and Sister Lewis was thuggin it out that whole day. The land here was all kinds of crazy. It ain't flat so all them big bumps and uneven terrain ain't for the weak. And when we took the Elders bikes after our District Council they said we had to bring it back to their flats and we were like, "yeah no problem, we gotchu." Mind you, I didn't know they lived ALL the way in Antarctica. So we biked like 40 minutes to their flat and had to walk back to our flat which was an hour away. 😬🤣 Twas a transfer WORKOUT day, but overall it was fun and I learned a lot. I'm always grateful for all exchanges I've had with any STL.


This week I learned a lot. I'm so grateful for my companion, Sister Bindanda, and to be training her. If anything I feel like I'm always the one getting trained by those who I'm supposed to be training. She's powerful. It was on Friday where we both were not in companionship unity with each other. This led to both of us kind of beating around the bush with each other and how we were truly feeling with one another. But on Sunday, we had a great heartfelt companionship council and she's taught me so much that I can improve on and even how I can help her. Mission truly has taught me a lot about unbecoming who I thought I was and how I am to becoming more like our Savior and how I should be. 💯🙏🏽❤️ This transfer was hard for both us expressing how we truly feel and communicating. If there's anything I've learned growing up, it's to never let feelings that make you not feel the presence of the spirit, linger. Now, me and my compa are Gucci, and even though it's the week of transfers, there's a different spirit and vibe in our companionship. We trust each other more, we both happy, and moreso determined to make this last week our absolute BEST in our area and the people we are teaching. 😊 Like my Grandma Logo said to me once, "It's now how you start, but how you finish."


All in all, the Savior truly is the best solution in any and every situation we can ever encounter. Let us always embrace Him and His gospel. Because none of us will ever be perfect, that's why we have His atonement. I loved what President Monson said about repentance, "One of God’s greatest gifts to us is the joy of trying again, for no failure ever need be final." As long as we keep trying our best... that's all that truly matters.


Love you all. Have a great week. Yeah fa.✌️ 




 

Sister Lewis (also from Utah) & m⁹e after we made it to the Elders flat.... ESKEDITTTT. Also their bike seats were high as heo because the Elders are way taller than us and we didn't think to adjust them at all till we got back to their flat. 🤣🤣🤣
