Dani is a good friend of ours whom we met through my sister, Emeline, about three years ago. Dani used to work with my sister a while ago and became really close friends. When I first met Dani, I never thought I would ever be close to her. But as time when on and I got to know her, I realized she has a great heart and was someone who I really wanted to get to know. And through Emeline’s help, she’s formed a beautiful relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ and is now a faith-filled Catholic. She’s helped my sister go through a lot in her life and she’s become a great blessing to our family.
One thing I would like to share about her is that she gives so much of herself to her loved ones. Through all the stories she’s shared with me about her family and friends, I could tell how much she cares for people and how much they love her in return. Even though I don’t see her much now a days, she’s always in my prayers. I joke with her sometimes about how busy she is because she’s so popular J. For a while she used to give me regular massages because of the myofascial pain syndrome/fibromyalgia that I have. I really miss those days when we bonded as she told me her life stories. She’s a massage therapist and would give me deep tissue massage many times with her elbow, which hurt so much but in the end was able to relieve a lot of tension that I was feeling. She has helped me tremendously and for that I will always be grateful to her.
For our wedding we chose her as our Rosary Sponsor. Even though she was new to the Catholic faith, she has been an awesome example to my family and I, on how to trust and surrender to our Lord. I feel so blessed to have witnessed the journey and transformation she made through her Confirmation and conversion. It reminds me of how we are meant to be childlike and be open to the love God wants to bless us with in our lives. How His love can grow inside someone’s heart and mold it to reflect His beauty.
When Leilani and I started to make rosaries, at first we were only planning to give them as gifts. We gave a flower shell rosary to Dani as a present one time when she wasn’t feeling well. We were so happy that she really liked it and also excited when she told us that she wanted place an order. One time we were texting back and forth and I told her that I couldn’t believe that she wanted to actually buy a rosary that we made. She said she didn’t want to just buy one, but like five!!! I replied back saying that I thought that was so awesome that she was giving us so much support and that Leilani and I better get to work soon J.
So, I just wanted to share with you this great experience with you all. How God is so good to bless us with this great mission of making rosaries to share with people to bring them closer to Jesus through praying to our Mother Mary through the Holy Rosary. Thanks be to God!
Our Prayer for Dani:
Dear Lord,
We want to thank you with all of our hearts for bringing Dani into our lives. We love her so much and know that you love her even more. Please pour down your blessings into her life- in her family, health, occupation, friends and wherever else she may need it. She is so giving of herself and wants only the best for her loved ones. We ask that in your goodness, that you bless her with the desires of her heart in return. But most of all, please grant her the special graces that you wish to give her through your holy will.

Thank you, Dani for all of your love and support and for just being you. You mean so much to my family and I and are so grateful for your friendship.
We love you!
. It’s also been pretty busy for me, learning and working on new hula dances to teach the group as well as Leilani and a group of students at her school for Christmas time. I’ve also been working on rosary orders from my sister, Marianne’s students and from my cousin Amabelle. 
Dear Sherylin,
