Hey everybody,
This has been another good week in Tonga. Right now we have two investigators that we are looking to baptize this week. One is a 14-year-old girl whose family is Wesleyan, except
for her aunt, but she has a strong desire to be baptized. We started teaching her
right when I came into the area. She is amazing and probably one of my favorite
investigators. She gave my favorite answer of my entire mission when we were
teaching her. I asked her why she wanted to be baptized and she said because she knew that the way she could live with God and belong in
his Kingdom was through receiving baptism and joining the church of Jesus
Christ.
Our second investigator is in the other ward. He has been taught by
missionary's for a long time but has yet to be baptized. He is very quiet but
has a good group of friends who help him come to church and mutual. After their baptisms we will be looking for people to teach. As work sometimes
goes in Tonga, members tell us they have people for us teach and that they
will give us a time to teach them. So we are waiting on them and trying to find
new investigators to teach.
We are in the same district as the sister AP's and they asked me to do a
baptism which was fun. Other than that I have been getting a lot closer to the ward. School gets
out next week and we are planning to try and do exchanges with all the
youth.
Random things:
- I had mashed potatoes for the first time in about 11 months. That got me a
little homesick. I also had the opportunity to eat bacon and honey bunches of
oats.
- I had a 7 month run of cold showers and now I'm living in an old sisters MQ so
they have HOT WATER. It's crazy.
