Soli mada

Mission Tour with the Yamashitas was awesome! We got a lot of awesome advice and it has been awesome to apply it!

On the way back from the meeting we met a white family at an ice-cream stand and my comp invited them to church using the way that they recommended and then next thing you know they showed up to church! It was awesome.

We also had a cool experience with Sherran this week. She has recently been trying to get married to her partner Lasarusa (The fijianized version of Lazarus) and a few struggles came up. Just on last Monday we went to talk to her and she said that things weren't going so well with it. She said that the pastor that was going to marry them legally decided that he wasn't going to do it unless Sherran came to his church for 6 months. So that wasn't sounding too good. Then Lasarusa's parents were pressuring them to do it with the pastor that told them about the 6 month thing. So my companion and I decided that we would fast on Tuesday and then we saw her on Saturday and she said that everything worked out and just changed out of nowhere. So she will be getting married this Friday! 1 Nephi 3:7 just got proved right.

We were able to teach one of our people named Soni about the Book of Mormon. We taught him about how they are like a 2 lighthouses that help us get into the bay safely. The whole time we taught him about the restoration of the Gospel he just kept looking down, nodding, and whispering, "Restoration" This isn't Joseph Smith's church, this is Christ's church!

Love you all!
