My sister Christie heard about this woman's amazing story a few months ago and contacted her. She invited her to come and speak to the sisters in her stake for a Ladies Night Out. What an amazing story she has on her life in Sierra Leone and her journey to discover what God had in store for her. Her story strengthened my own testimony and made me count my many blessings and refocus on what my priorities ought to be. If you are in my stake, we will be having Mariama come in January to our Women's Conference so I do not want to tell her whole story. You will take with you so much more if you hear it from her in her own words. I am forever changed because of her. Thank you Mariama. </div><div align="center">I love you.

But part of it isn't our fault! You see, our blog has been really acting up lately and wouldn't let us add or change the background or anything!
