da wurld iz lit



aye fam are you doing light the wurld? if you 'aint go do um !

This week wasn't the easiest. I'm grateful for this opportunity to serve. We've been talking to everyone in Twin Falls this week and it seems like no one wants to talk back! Prez. Uchtdorf, the biggest homeslice of all slices of homies, said that as "disciples of Christ, we are bearers of light." As we invite people to participate in Light the World and as we reach out to serve others, we're spreading light - spreading it like cream cheese on a bagel! 

Me and Hermana Corona are having some baller times and laughing and crying a lot. Emotional rollercoaster! I just want some malasadas today because Idaho stay coooooold. Shoutout to the best of all besties Sala & Sister Amani for sending a package of all da goods w/ mochi chrunch and strawberry belts #blesssssssss

Aunty Manda sent met his quote a while ago, and I thought it applied really well to my week. Here it is:

"Faith in the dawn rises from the faith that God is good and is just. When one believes this, he knows that the contradictions of life are neither final or ultimate. He can walk through the dark night with the radiant conviction that all things work together for good for those that love God. Even the most starless midnight can herald the dawn of some great fulfillment." -MLKJ

The work is hard, the work is fulfilling. What matters are your efforts - your results are your efforts, not your numbers. Just love others, that's all we're asked to do. Love like Jesus - love that guy you see at Church who is sitting by himself, love the aunty who is smoking across the street, love the kids that are crying in Wal-Mart, love yo neighbors. It changes the world. 

Email me if you need anything fam! Thanks for being some goob homies! 


Lots of Love,
Hermana Elkington
