Ikarua papitaiso e na Uciwai!

Good week this week!

We were able to baptize one of the investigators that we inherited from Elda Burge and Elda Gabba. Way cool stuff! He was way prepared to be baptized and he is just an all around way cool guy. I felt way happy when he showed up which was a testimony builder that true happiness comes from the gospel of Christ, and the happiness of the world fades.

Oh also transfers happened and things got a little shaken up. Elda Jonathan is gone, and Elda Hippolite has come to replace him. Hippolite is from NZ and a way chill dude. We have been working way hard these past few days and seeing the fruits of our labors. Sireli's younger brother wants to take the lessons an we have permission to teach him but it is kinda hard to get a hold of him. That's okay though we will keep trying. Our investigator Aliki has been showing progress with living the word of wisdom which is cool. Blessings and prayers really work.

We have been doing a mission wide read of the BofM recently and it has been awesome. Reading about the blessings that Nephi received from obedience are awesome motivators to remain obedient even when it seems like a hassle.

Oh also one time we were teaching one of the members and a centipede was in his shirt so that definitely was an adrenaline rush when he flicked it off himself and it started coming right at me. Afterwards we were all laughing way hard even though I saw my life flash before my eyes.

Love everyone lots and thanks for the support I've gotten!!
