Mauri,
I am doing
really good out here this week. I just
love being a missionary!! I didn't travel at all this last week and we
won't for another week or two. Our next
trip will be to Onotoa on June 27th.
We go June 27th and we will be
coming back July 1st. That will probably
be my last trip to an outer island for a long time. I have heard it is pretty sweet though so I am
excited.
One of our
investigators just got interviewed for baptism and another should be
interviewed this Saturday so I am pretty excited. One of our recent converts Tenimarebu passed
the sacrament for his first time yesterday so that was super sweet. He is 13 but he looks like he is 7 or 8. He is a super great kid though. His mom got baptized with him and his dad is
now active again in the church so that is pretty sweet.
Another cool
story that happened this week has to do with a less active guy named Bainrebu. He is super cool; he just doesn't come to
church. He joined the church a really
long time ago, he went to school in Tonga before Moroni High School was made
and he has been to a bunch of places around the world. I remember visiting him in July of last year
when I worked here and since November of when I started to work here again
until now. I always seem to be telling
him to come to church. Well, he came yesterday!
He has been pretty inactive for
the last 10 or more years, so it was super sweet to see him at church!
Last week
for service we went and made a garden at this one member’s house. We got some good dirt and put it in his
garden and then we made a little rock wall to keep dirt from falling in it and
after we put a fishing net all around it so kids won't get it. It looked pretty sweet and it was really fun
to do.
The next
transfer has been finalized and so we announced it and it should be good. All the Elders from my intake are coming in
from Kiritimati this Thursday so it will be fun to see them. Other than that
not much crazy has gone on. You have now sent me an email so I will probably
respond to questions that you have send. Have a great week though!
Time has gone
really fast for me. I have been in Tarawa since November and I feel like time is just flying. Administration is pretty fun, but sometimes
we miss going out and just being a part of the team. I love doing both things though and am
learning a lot. It would be nice for time
not to go so fast though,
Have a great
week
