That We May Be One

Laura Gastelum


Listen Later

Welcome back sisters! Today I’m happy to share with you an

interview with Laura Gastelum. Laura and her family have been in the ward for 8
years. She grew up in San Luis Obispo, studied to be a teacher in college.
Laura loves to read, kayak, walk, and collect heart rocks. She also enjoys volunteering
in her kids’ classes and being their biggest and loudest cheerleader. After
standing next to her at our kids’ band events, I can personally vouch for that
last one.

Time to brag about Laura. From the time I moved into the

ward she has been so generous. If she gets the slightest idea that you need
something, she is ready to share whatever she has. I truly believe Laura is the
kind of person that would give you the coat off her back. Also, Laura is very kind
and accepting. She talks in the episode about not judging her sister for her
choices, and I have seen that side of Laura. She is inclined to love before she
is inclined to find fault. I’m grateful for her friendship.

I hope you enjoy this interview conducted by Nikki Steers where

Laura shares how her parents’ divorce affected her teenage faith, how she
learned to overcome her fear of marriage, and how she was comforted by God at
the death of her sister.
