Time is short, but I would just like to say that I love you all and pray for you all! I hope all is well with you and that you have an amazing week!
This week we traveled in a canoe to do a tracting blitz in the elders' area of Abatoa. It was fun. It was great to be able to put our feet in the water. :) I met Tikaua, who is from Abemama, there. It was great. He is fun.
Elder Graham and I went to Bairiki to do a divorce so that one of the less active parents of some of our recent converts can get married, so they can get on track for the temple. IT IS CRAZY!!! Bairiki has lots of real buildings! And they are big.... very strange... :)
Also, with the help of some of the YSA, we made a roof for one of our investigators, Saki. It was fun. But the leaves cut our hands a lot. It was good though. Really cool. He is from Fiji, so he lessons with us in English.
Tuuete was baptized this past week. She has family who are members and they invited us to lesson with her. She goes to school at Moroni High School. She was great fun to lesson with. She is smart and she really understood the lessons.
My studies this week were on faith, hope, and charity. It you all have some free time, I would recommend reading Moroni 7 as well as Preach My Gospel chapter six: Christlike Attributes. It was great. I learned a great deal. There is so much that I need to improve on as a person and as a missionary, and I am extremely grateful that the Lord has given us an Atonement so that we can improve and become greater. He is truly the Almighty and will give us the strength so that we can do all things.
I know this church is true. It is God's kingdom on the Earth. It is Zion - if we make it such.
I love you all! Keep the faith. Let's all go do "something good in the world today".
Stand Strong!
Ask God! - I know that He will answer.
Hurrah for Israel!
