Thank you Jenna for sharing with us! We are excited to get to know you.
1. Tell us about you and your family.
Me and Luke are both from Mesa, Az. We went to the same high school and started hanging out a few weeks after graduation. We started dating and wrote each other while he was serving a mission in Indiana and have now been married for a little over 4 years. Luke is a third year DO student and I am an RN and worked mostly on an Orthopedic floor before I decided to stay home and raise my daughter. Eliza will be 3 in January she loves music and sings all day long! We are expecting baby #2 on Christmas Eve this year and I don't think I could ask for a better gift than that!
2. If you had an hour free time, what might we find you doing?
I love a good deal and shopping the clearance at Target and exploring stores like Marshalls and TJ Maxx, however since I stopped working and we started the med school budget I would more likely spend my free time doing something crafty
3. Share an experience that has strengthened your testimony or why the gospel is important to you?
There was a time in my life when I believed that the gospel was true but I didn’t know that it was true and I really struggled with that, I wanted to know like I felt so many others did. One day in Relief Society we were studying Alma 32 and when we read Alma 32:27-28 it just really hit me, all I needed was to “experiment” on the word and have a “desire” and exercise a particle of faith and I needed to be patient and that it would come. Eventually as the scriptures promised it did. It wasn’t right then, but as I continued to have faith and read the scriptures and live my life as best as I could I gained that knowledge and have held those scriptures dear to my heart ever since.
4. What are your following favorites:
Dessert - Mint fudge tracks ice cream, or really anything Chocolate
Hobbies - crafts, I love being able to create something or give something new life, I also enjoy baking especially with Eliza she loves “mix it time”
Hymn - “Be Still, My Soul”
