KONFERENCA

 October 5 2021

Hiya ca boni

Good few weeks! Highlights include
-CONFERENCE! My 3rd and final conference in Albania and it was so special.  I had about a million questions about post mission life and i feel so much more peace now shyqyr.
-Miraculously got my first dose of pfizer !!! Finally!! I made Sister Green hold my hand, bonding! Ironically, we got put into quarantine later that afternoon for a few days.
-Service project!! It was beautiful chaos. We are helping repair an apartment building that was destroyed from a gas fire. The family is currently living in a tent on a nearby field. Really devastating situation and we are praying they can get the help they need to fix the house, because it is very very over our heads. Unfortunately none of us are professionals:(.
-Had some fun exchanges and got to go back to my training area!!! So special to be there.  Went on a run with Sister Moessing to a hidden orthodox church on the mountain and saw some of my favorite people in the world.

I loved when Brad Wilcox said that the Lord always talks about weaknesses with mercy. I loved his idea that God wants to help us become. He wants go be involved every step of the way. We are so lucky to be so loved, wowzas.

Love ju all

December 21, 2020  Hellooo everyone! A great quarantine week! -Stunning hike @Bovila -I went back to Berat for DONA'S baptism!   She is such a light and I admire her so so much.   -Online lesson with Aina who is getting baptized on Saturday!! Quarantine has been really good;  staying obedient even in hard situations brings SHUMË blessings. We have literally seen miracles this week. I feel so close to Heavenly Father, even though I sometimes feel very far from my family and loved ones! I am reading in 3 Nephi right now and I am always touched by when the Nephites hear His voice for the first time. 3 Nephi 11:3: "They heard a voice as if it came out of heaven... and not withstanding it being a small voice it did pierce them that did hear to the center, insomuch that there was no part of their frame that it did not cause to quake; yea, it did burn them to the very soul, and did cause their hearts to burn." This is so powerful because we truly feel closest to h...

Work for the Blessings...Am I Right?

November 9, 2020  Hii!! I felt so happy to be a missionary this week, so many good things happened! We are teaching a young mom right now, Dona. We invited Dona to church and told her we would walk with her. When we showed up to her house on Sunday she had brought her mom and sons!! After, on the way home she told us that she wanted to be baptized, like really soon. It was amazing!! One of my favorite things about teaching people the gospel is watching the Spirit change their demeanor. You can see a light in their eyes. I LOVE IT. At a lesson with our neighbors this week (!!!) a lady gave me some green olives and olive oil. Yum right? Mm well, green olives straight off the tree are nottt edible. And i learned that a few weeks ago harvesting olives when I tried one! So. I ate the supppper bitter olive and smiled through the pain. Then she told me to drink the olive oil.  Did you know that drinking olive oil keeps you safe from Covid? Me neither. It was an interesting lesson to ...
