It's been a while!

Hi everyone, here's a quick update:


- I'm doing super well!! Still serving in Tualatin and I love it here. The branch truly feels like family. Because we are blessed with a temple in Portland and it's in our area, we've recently been taking a lot of our friends on temple tours to help them understand more of God's plan. Through these experiences, I've come to understand just how aware and intentionally involved God is in each of His children's lives. I've come to more fully understand what it means to take upon the name of Christ and strive to become like him.


I know he lives, I know his grace is sufficient for all who come unto him. I love you all and I invite you to take a moment this week and ask the Lord what he wants you to do and what he wants you to become. I promise you will receive answers and know he is there.

  Happy Tuesday morning!! ☀️☀️ it’s a lovely day so far:) Ok! So here’s an experience I have been feeling like I want to share with you all: Maybe a week ago? Ish? I was in the temple for to do initiatories. I can’t remember if I had an appointment or I was just walking in… I think I was just walking in.  The PCC temple has a really good system for helping people who walk in w/out an appointment be able to do initiatories. However after they got my name and all that jazz they asked me to sit in the front area where the desk is instead of in the back near the booths bc the benches back there were full. This was sorta upsetting to me, I had gone that day really hoping to be able to feel the spirit. But being up there near the desk meant I had to try and tune out all the happenings and chatting there. Recently I’ve discovered that when I’m anxious I can get pretty sound sensitive. So if there’s any noise going on it can completely overwhelm me with anxious thoughts.  I start...
