Bautismo de Cristina ♡

 Hey Y'all 

I was transferred and I am now in Palos Verdes with Hermana Payne!!!! I love my companion and I love it here so much! I'm in a boujee area now, it's super clean!!! And we live 10 min from the beach!!!

We had a baptism! Her name is Cristina and she's absolutely amazing. She's so cute. We brought three jumps suits for her to try on to wear for the baptism but they did not fit.  We were like "Oh shoot" because we didn't have anymore and it would take an hour to go back to get another size for her. But luckily the elders had an extra baptismal suit in their car, so we used that. It was super super big on her but it worked! #blessings. The baptism was beautiful and the spirit was so strong!!! Hermana Payne and I sang a song during the service and it was super fun! The place where we had the baptism had an amazing view of the ocean!  While we were there, the sunset happened and I'm soooooo grateful for this beautiful world!!! God has created so many beautiful things and everyday I'm more and more grateful to be able to live here. ¡agradecida!

Love y'all! Stay safe!

Love, 
Hermana Weenig <3

Back in LA 6th

Hi Y'all,

I'm back in my first area -- LA 6th!! My companion is Hermana Asay from Utah and she's literally the coolest.  Plus, guesses whatttttt.  One of my roommates is Hermana Ramírez!!!!!! Otra vez!!!! We are also on bikes and I freakin love it!  Biking on the streets in downtown LA is like mountain biking, because the sidewalks are all broken and you have to dodge all the trees and people. Super funnnn!

We had church!!!! Finally!!! We haven't had church for 7 months.  It was held outside in the church parking lot. Before the service, we got to take everyone's temperatures! We wore all this covid protection stuff and we looked like we were going into surgery or something. It was super cool, too, because we were able to see everyone from my first area. Also our friend, Mario, came!! He is so cute.  He brought his Book of Mormon and everything. 

I'm super happy to be back and with an amazing companion and rommie. I've been feeling super blessed lately and I just want to thank everyone for all that you do.  I know that sometimes life can be pretty hard, but just remember to love every moment.  The good and the bad because nothing lasts forever, so enjoy it!!!! Teehee 

Love y'all! 

Love, 
Hermana Weenig 

Ohhhhh shoot!  Just kidding, I just got news that I'm going to a different area tomorrow, I'll let y'all know next week

Mi cumpleaños #20!!!

Hi,

Thanks to everyone who made my birthday amazing!!! I'm grateful for all y'all and love y'all so much!!! My birthday was so fun!!! I'm so grateful!!! We had an in person lesson with Reina! She bought me a cake, but we couldn't eat it with her because of Corona.  We still can't remove our masks when we visit people.  So we went home and Facetimed her and we ate it with her haha. One of our members, Hermana Lupe, bought me a super nice cake, too.  I was showing my cute roommates and they were like, "Let's take a picture with it!"  As they were taking the picture, Sister Tuna shoved my face into the cake hahaha good times. But, yes, my birthday was amazing and I'm a viejita ahora (an oldie now)


ALSO, general conference was so good!!!! If you haven't seen it, you need to. We had a really good experience with our friend, Ana Maria. She doesn't know how to work technology very well.  So we called her and put conference on and listened to it through the phone with her. She said she only had 10 minutes to listen, but then she ended up listening to the full two hours.  At the end, she was crying.  She said she was so happy and she was crying because of how good God's words are. It was so cute. I LOVE HER. 

Love y'all have a wonderful week! And stay safe! 

Love, 
Hermana Weenig 

Reina! Thumbs up for birthdays.
