My companion made sure to harass me about it..

Malo Soifua Aiga!

A pretty busy week so here is the update:

-We had two baptisms this week which went great. Eseta Vaai and Leala Tautalaaso To'omalatai. It was a really cool experience. Eseta has been waiting for 3 years to baptized so I am grateful that it all worked out for her :)

-We have officially gotten bikes. The only thing that is lame is that mine is a sister's bike….my companion made sure to harass me about it... It makes it worse because its purple and my comps is white...it's cool.

-The Easter program went well and I really was grateful to have a way to remember the Savior this Easter :)

All is going well here. I really don't need anything but remember how you had wanted to send me a box? could you send one to another missionary for me instead? Sister Tofilau is going to be serving in the Eugene Oregon Mission. She left this week and we are really close with her family. It is really hard to send stuff from here so instead of sending me something could you send her a care package of food and stuff? Thanks so much :)

I hope you all have a great week :)

The work is going Great!

Malo Soifua Aiga!

A pretty good week all the way around. Very busy which I am grateful for :) Here is the update:

-Saturday we had the baptisms of the Nielsen family. It was such an amazing experience! The father of the family had been baptized a long time a go  but just recently decided to come back to church and bring his whole family with him. He baptized his wife and four of his children. I'm so grateful that I was able to meet them and be a part of their conversion process :). 

-At the baptism, one of the lo'omatuas (old lady) smart phone went off and she tried so hard to get it to stop. It wasn't happening and finally someone went over and shut it off for her. I don't know why but it was so funny to me :)

- My health is actually great! I haven't been sick this whole transfer ( knock on wood). We are actually going to go to an Easter devotional in our ward and sing in it so it should be cool. Our songs:

I stand all amazed, Holy City, I am a child of God, and two others. it should be cool, I'm trying out tenor :) 

-honestly I am completely fine. My ward loves us and they really spoil us. The work is going great and we get fantastic support from the members.

All is good here I'm just enjoying another P-day. I hope you all have a great week.

Malo Soifua Aiga,

A pretty normal week. Nothing really to report. A lot of rain and dirty proselyting shirts haha. But all is going good here and I am looking forward to seeing you all. 

Chillin at the Church

           The baptisms are all still on and the Mission President as well as his counselor will be in attendance. (no pressure). All is going good here and I'll make sure to give a longer report next week. I hope you all have a great week :)

Dang no Crosbys….

Malo Soifua Aiga,

Well not a very long report today. But here it goes:

-I did not get transferred. I am still in Navu (Vaivase itai) but Elder Wolz got transferred to Mulifanua. he became a trainer and is white-washing the area so he was freaking out a bit but I know he will do good. I'm currently with Elder Tafeaga still, but I think he may be leaving because this is his old stake. 

-It was hard-out pouring this week so the work was slow, but great new is that we are currently teaching a family and they all want to get baptized! We have planned for the 19 of March so hopefully it all goes through :)

- I think the ring worm is going away. 

Dang, it sounds like everything is changing back home. I'm definitely going to miss the good old Grove 2nd ward but hopefully, dang no Crosbys... I'll still see a bunch of people at my homecoming. All is going good here. I love you all and hope you have a great week.

Yeah ring worm sucks

Malo Soifua Aiga,

Just a short note today. Log on when you can, but here is the update:

-There was a hurricane in Fiji this past week. Luckily for us it didn't hit but it has been pouring rain. Below is a picture of me crossing what was a path haha.

-I think it is complete karma for harassing wrestlers in high school but I have recently gotten ring worm on my arm so that is pretty cool.  Yeah ring worm sucks. It is ok though because I got the help I needed.  I have a cream and I am watching it, if it gets worse I'll get a medication.

-We are all just waiting for the transfer calls tonight. I really want to stay here. We just got a family of 5 who all want to get baptized. Hopefully everything will work out.

All is going well here. I'm glad to here that you are all doing well, and I hope you all have a great week :)

Alofa tele atu,

Happy Valentines to you all.

Malo Soifua Aiga!

Well, an interesting morning so far. Our internet has been down at the chapel, so we found a store and are on a timer now so here is the update:

-first of all, happy Valentine's to you all! I hope it is a great one :) 

-I just got healthy from a throat infection that lasted the whole week, so that was pretty cool. But I am very grateful to be back to work.

-I'm stoked that my Broncos won! I guess I'll just have to be in Samoa again next year, so that they can win it again :) haha Nah but my ward mission leader totally hooked me up with a sweet hat. Always gotta be supporting my team :)

The work is going good. We recently got like 10 referrals so we have a bunch of new investigators which is really good and it shows that the ward trusts us. Also for almost all of them we have a fellow shipper so we are stoked. Area is good, our transfers are the 24th so we will see what happens. Crazy to think that I have 3 1/2 more months! I'm hoping I either get transferred this one or not and finish my mission here just so I know my last area. 

Anyways, all is going well, glad to here it is all goods back home. I love you all so much and hope you all have a great week.

Reunited!

Malo Soifua Aiga!

A pretty busy week with another one on the way but here is the update:

-I am currently in another trio. My new companion's name is Elder Tafeaga from Letogo. He only has 3 months left so actually really close to me. A cool guy but it'll probably only be a little bit because transfers are in 2 weeks.  

-Sadly Ezekiel, our investigator will be going home today. He wasn't ready for his baptism so we sent his information over to the missionaries in New Zealand so hopefully everything works out. I'm really going to miss this guy though, and will definitely be keeping in touch. 

-so crazy thing happened this week but long story short, I have my carry on bag again. I had a feeling to go check the airport because it is in my area. My bag had been sitting there for over 6 months! So grateful that I got it back :)

Anyways, it sounds like you are all doing good so I am happy to hear that :) I miss you all and hope you all have a great week!

mad at the Fiji rugby team

Malo Soifua Aiga!

Well it was quite the week. First I want to thank the McCooks for their Christmas package and I will definitely take the offer of another cabin trip :) 

Thanks so much!  Here is the update:

-I started the week off with Chigen Gunia again so that was awesome. Having a rash and being way sore is actually less fun than it sounds... but I am healthy now so all is good :)

-We had a conference on Tuesday with Elder D. Todd Christofferson of the Quorum of the Twelve as well as Elder Nielson of the Seventy. It was such an amazing experience and really interesting because the whole time was spent doing a question and answer session. Pretty amazing hearing answers from an Apostle of God. I was really blown away at how peaceful I felt when he spoke. One that I'll always remember. 

not all of us, but a cool picture of the intake :)

-On one visit we walked into an old lady watching the rugby 7's tournament. It was hilarious because as we came in she was as mad at the Fiji rugby team and swung at the T.V. hahaha we left but it totally made my day :)

All is going well here.I'm stoked that my Broncos are going to the Super Bowl but will be mad if they win it all when I am on an island in the middle of the ocean...just saying.

 I hope all is going well for you all.

Alofa Atu outou!
