Hi, everyone. Aloha. Hi, guys. Hi. My name is Hansel Aguilar. I’m 23 years old, and I’m from Cali, Colombia.

My name is Maria Fernanda Becerra, but everybody calls me Chimmy.

It’s just faster, easier, and I love it. My name is Melody Christman. I’m from West Valley City, Utah. But now I’m living in La’ie Hawaii, studying at BYU–Hawaii.

I am majoring in elementary education, and I work at the elementary school nearby, helping with the kindergartners. My name is Dayrin. I am currently living in Las Vegas, Nevada, and I was born originally in Guatemala City. I've been married for 14 months to my beautiful wife.

We don’t have kids yet. We have a little dog—golden retriever. His name is Toby. I am 25 years old. I was born in Peru. Raised in Italy. Still living there. But because of my job, I’m also pretty often in the Czech Republic, which

I'm actually in the Czech Republic. I was inspired by Elder Silva's talk from this past general conference where he shares an experience about his friend giving him a Book of Mormon and sharing his testimony.

And as a return missionary from Japan and Michigan,

I felt really inspired to learn how to be a missionary in my own way.

I challenge myself for the next 30 days to do small and simple acts of kindness and service to friends and family and to even strangers.

Today is day one. I wanted to start this 30-day challenge because of a talk from Elder Bednar.

He said that we have to carefully and prayerfully reevaluate our priorities.

I've been so focused on getting a promotion and working on multiple projects. And that's good because I've been working super hard,

but I need to put my marriage first.

And I’m pretty sure that by doing that, I put God first.

Absolute favorite talk was for Elder Holland.

His talk spoke a lot to me and it reminded me of who I am and where I’m at and who I can become.

I want to continue learning to love myself through physical and health care.

This journey, this 30-days challenge for me are needed because of the ongoing situation with Ukraine.

My husband is Ukrainian and since the war started

I was looking for ways to find peace and comfort. But it has been hard, and I guess that these 30 days will actually force me to try harder to strengthen my connection with the Lord.

I'm excited to share a little bit with you guys of who I am and what I’ve become and give myself the opportunity to continue growing.

Let's see how it goes. I'm excited and I'm happy to share that with you all. Wish me luck on my next 29 days of small and simple service. ♫♫
