- As a high school senior, Lisa has a lot to celebrate: yoga, ice cream, basketball, her journal. But her work with Operation Smile in Jordan gave this Mormon teen the most to smile about. Visit bit.ly/39Juy3h

Very nice girl. Great video. I'm not Mormon, but we definitely need more people like this.
Such a beautiful spirit. The joy and happiness you brings to those around you shows in this video. Continue with your service to others, strong Mormon faith and beautiful smile!
What inspiring humanitarian aid. I bet future generations will love to read her journals about her work.
she's sooo happy and has a great smile and so energetic. it's all in your attitude, we could learn to do the same.
Love you Lisa! You're an incredible example to me of goodness.
Just a Gem of a young lady
Lisa this is awesome! Thank you for your example! It means a lot to me, being a senior in high school now. Thanks.
Thanks for sharing your story. I needed something to brighten my day and you helped give it to me. :) Thank you.
God Jesus Christ will be with you Lisa! You are an amazing amazing person!
Mormans are nice decent folks, even if they aren't Buddhist! Good values, help and respect others; I am as happy to have Taiwanese cousins who are Morman as my father-in-law was to have a White Buddhist for a son-in-law.
I'm a Mormon and honestly, I don't really care if the religion is fake or not because I feel happier as a Mormon. I don't know, I guess being a Mormon makes me feel happy and I have a happy feeling inside. I find it funny when people make fun of me, and I make jokes about us too ^^
Even if my religion might not be real, my home life is happier somehow as a Mormon...does that make sense?
kasey eslijng: That's one way to look at it but I think you should try and gain a testimony of it being the true church of God because, I mean, don't you want it to be true? Lots of things can make people happy but none of it would mean anything if it were fake. I have a testimony and I know the church is true and real and that God really does hear our prayers and He really does love us. The only way to go back to live with our Heavenly Father is through Jesus Christ and I know that's true. It does make me happy and I'm glad being a member of the church makes you happy too but I invite you to search for a testimony and a knowledge that's it's not fake: it's very real.
She has a beautiful smile!😊
Great example to us all!
i am glad that you feel happier!!!
@ChoolyBuzkill I don't think she's trying to claim that she is a better person at all. I think she setting an example of Christ-like love for one another and that is something I think we could all use in the world today. Thanks Lisa for your service with a smile! Keep it up!
@Primalinstincts101 These videos have everything to do with being a Mormon or a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Each video's sole focus is to get at the story that runs through that person’s life, and the thread of faith that is part of it. These individuals tell us that they find strength in their religious faith that enables them to endure their trials and even find meaning and joy in their lives as members of the Church. It's beautiful!
Mormons believe in helping others because you love them, not just to get into heaven.
Very cool.
We don't believe that works get us into Heaven, we fully believe that God's grace has saved us, but we also believe that we need to be kind to one another and take care of people. She chose to participate in Operation Smile to make an impact in the lives of other people, not to get into Heaven.
good message.
@juliqtlove It has everything to do with it. Her faith has taught her to love one another just as Jesus Christ taught! She exemplifies these Christian values as a Mormon! What a great example! :)
Hey, I've been to Jordan, too. :)
Dats mah sistah yall!!! :D
@rocamericansweethart Her life is a life of service, as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we strive to follow Jesus Christ and love one another, as Lisa said, "Service is not just a series of acts, but a lifestyle." So her being a Mormon has everything to do with the wonderful life she lives!
To everyone saying "and I'm a Christian" - Mormonism is a sect of Christianity (just like Lutheranism or Catholicism). Its formal name is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
...and I'm an agnostic.
Impressive young lady.
OMG, when you go to the part where you fell in the middle of the street, I was like, O---M--------G. Aaaaaah.Ooooh. You really did that?? You?? You were in the street?? There was ice there?? And you fell?? W---T---F?? That was totally inspiring.
I also like ice-cream. Am I a mormon?
omg i criedd
and im a mormon! :)
@loveus2girls a religion that stays true to their principles. i dont know why people are hatin. the media does joke a lot about em a lot.
@Damian2257 That girl in the video is doing both
How about making organizations to plant trees?
my guess is that she is a sansei and her grandparents were interned at topaz?
and im a christian :)
nice girl :)
@Gautavai7 :)
@EDMUNDHOMMIES Woosh, right over your head.
@ChoolyBuzkill That is not the point of these videos. People think that mormons are so different. These videos show that mormons have normal, happy, lives.
:)
I'm PixelatedHero98, and i'm not a Mormon.
HEY! HEY NOW! Don't start putting all off my generation in the same basket! Believe it or not someof us have very good speech skills and are able to talk to others without "Like" in every sentence.
Are you a Buddhist and Mormon?
duoe m
speranzaviva
This is all wonderful that this girl does these things, but being a Mormon does not make her or anyone else a better person in the slightest.
@rocamericansweethart I think the point of the videos are that being Mormon is not something strange and different. You can lead a seemingly normal life.
However, these stories sound like non-practicing Mormons' lives.
LOOOOOOOOOOOL mormons.
uhhh, so what does being a mormon have anything to do with your life?
What was the whole point of this video? The fact that she's a mormon? The fact that she helps kids? That she's a hot asian?.... I don't know anymore......
what's a Mormon Christian?
it's great that she's such a good person, and really happy seeming, and comfortable with herself and her life.... but why does that have to depend on her religion? this is an advertisement for the mormon faith as much as it is an advertisement for yoga or ice cream. again, her story is very sweet; but bill gates (for example) is an atheist and donates tons of money to charities. happy people and humanitarians can come from any religious background, including agnostics and atheists. :)
Sometimes I can't help but think to ask who has better motives? A religious person helping others to do the wishes of someone else (i.e. god) or to get into heaven etc.? Or a non-religious person helping others because they just believe it will make the world a better place?
@Damian2257 Eventhough I am non-religious I think both are equal. However, I hate the people that say that God Inspires you to do the kind things you do. That shows selfish motives.
What is it with kids saying "like" all the time? The next generation is going to be confused like ya know like....
and I'm a Christian, but religion has nothing to do with it ;D
