Here are 5 things about this week, (sorry I'm not super creative):
1. The Liahona area in Nuku'alofa is like Provo, except it's one hundo percent
Mormon. So basically, people just bring us investigators from different parts of
the island. In our case this week we found M who is 16 years old and from
New Zealand. She had been taught some of these lessons before but we still
taught her all the lessons again. It was really fun and good for me to teach her
because she could understand some of my Tongan and life is better when I'm able
to communicate in the lessons. We taught her Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday, interviewed on Friday and baptized on Saturday.
2. We had a follow-up meeting with my entire intake group. It was super fun to see Elder
Poulsen and Elder Manu and the rest of my intake again.
3. I got to see FATHER HEFA. [The father of the family whose house Levi helped build last year when he was in Tonga on his humanitarian trip.] One of the zones in Tonga went to the temple
and I went to connect with the zone and I saw him walking out of the temple. It was so
fun to be able to talk to him. He looked super good. We were both in a rush but
he said that David is preparing to go on his mission and that Nephi and the
Twins are still going to school at Liahona and are doing well. He said he might
send them over to the mission complex one day, and hopefully I'll be able to
talk to them more.
4. I got my driver's license this week - $60 bucks and a flash of an American license
and I was set.
5. I went to the blow holes this week. Even though the pictures are super
sweet it's nothing like actually being there. It's so beautiful. (This is a part
of my "wear in the world" Blazer campaign, Ubi. I put you in charge of getting me
there. I better have some free Blazer tix when I come back.)
Lastly- I am 180 pounds! Oh my gosh I am so fat, It's honestly so scary, I
might be fasting a couple times next week.
I testify this work and this Church is true and we got a prophet and some
dang good apostles on the earth right now.
