Hi guys!!!! This week was soooo fun!!!! This is the best area by far. This past week, I hit 9 months! Time is for sure flying by so fast.
Highlights from this week:
⭐️Had our ward TRUNK OR TREAT. We dressed up as a minon and a banana. We decorated our car as despicable me. It was the photobooth for everyone HAHA! It was raining so hard but that didnt bother any of the WASHITONIANS! #diehard
⭐️YSA FHE- We dressed up as guys...no one recognized us until they saw the tags. WE ATEEE!!! Everyone loved us ( a lil too much) and the picture is down below.
⭐️Went to a fun place called Lattins Farm. It is like cross e ranch or corn belly's! We rode in this ride and a hay ride. SO MUCH FUN. And then had apple fritters and apple cider.
⭐️ALLERGIC REACTION-Almost died at a members house. Im sick of these dang cats.
⭐️Found 3 new friends! Joshua, Emily, and Tamara. We met one of them at our fav asian store, MINISO <3
⭐️Alex's lesson was FUEGOOOO! We had one of our members who is from Venezuela fellowship us. They spoke spanish to eachother and after the lesson, Alex was like, I BELIEVE IN ALL THAT YOU HAVE TAUGHT ME. and im like, omg get baptized and she said not yet...lol we will keep praying for her!
⭐️We been nonstop thrifting. We are addicted to shopping!
⭐️Our new members are so close to getting to the temple and one of them is almost ready for his endowment. We get to help teach temple prep and it has been a blessing getting to be with all these young adults helping them progress spiritually.
This week, I focused on serving my companion and others more. I felt more joy and peace in my life as I forgot about myself and served those around me. I thought of the scripture, Mosiah 2:17, which talks about when you serve others, you are serving God. I want to invite you all to serve someone this week. Whether it is a person in your family, a friend, or a random person, JUST SERVE THEM!! You will feel God and the saviors love for you and the person you serve.
I love this gospel. I feel so much joy here in Washington. I don't want to leave quite yet! But, hope everyone has a great week and an AMAZING HALLOWEEN!! Dress up as michael myers for me (ifykyk). Love yall!
Love, Sister Alapa 🌸❤️
