Bula vinka (hello in
Fujian)
Happy 4th of July,
Happy Birthday Cookie girl, Happy birthday
daddy, and Happy
anniversary mommy & daddy!
My week has been
filled with making sushi, interviews with President
Samuelian, catering
to the needs of sisters, and learning lessons.
Seriously where do I
start....
I feel like a new
missionary. The amount of stress I currently have is
out of control ! I'm
in a trio with two Hawaiian sisters
#getdownwithdabrown.
I had an interview
with President this past week. The following is an
account of our
conversation....
President : Sister
Zubicki would you offer the opening prayer?
Me : sure, I would
love to.
Me : Our Dear Father
In Heaven.... In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
President : (immediately
stares into my eyes) Sister Zubicki (in his
sacrament voice)...
Are you tired of being asked if your Polynesian?
Me :
hahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahahahah actually yes
because I'm Fijian.
- Sister Purcell and
Agader are from Hawaii and they told me I needed
to pick a island to
say I'm from so I picked Fuji... They taught me
some words... I feel
super cool. I can't tell you how many people
think I'm actually
from Fuji :)
Sister Agader really
likes to cook so we made sushi with a less active
couple this week. It
was seriously so much fun**** We shared
a
message about eternal
marriage at the end of our lesson. It was so great!
We are also helping
them build their house. They are doing the habit for
humanity program so,
every Saturday we help them for a few hours.
It's super hard but
really rewarding.
We had a baptism this
week... Which was awesome!!! We live in
a house that is
literally the size of a shoe box. I'm currently
living out of my
suitcase. The ward is on fire! They've have 7
baptisms this month.
<~ super exciting. We are working with a family.
The mom was baptized
a few months ago as well as the daughter and the
son. We are currently
working with the dad. His name is D---. He's
awesome ! I invited
him to be baptized on July 12.
Keep him in your
prayers...We will be teaching him on
Wednesday. I feel like daddy needs to send D--- a letter
about his
experience in joining
the church.
I found out that Eggie
and her baby (new companion) scheduled someone
for a baptism! I'm SO
excited for them both!
We are going on an
exchange on Saturday in Rockaway Beach!
I'm so pumped to see
all of my peeps!
I also bucketed 1 ton
of hay this weekend. It was bomb.com!
Please keep me and
all of the missionaries around the world in your prayers,
we need them, some
more than others but, we ALL need them!
I love you all more
than I can put into words!
XOXO
