Chers tous,
J'espere que vous aviez passe
une bonne semaine!!
This week has been beyond
gloomy. Today is the first day we've seen sun since last monday! We heard about
the category 5 cyclone hit Fiji these past few days, and we've definitely
experienced the aftermath of that storm with super stong winds and obnoxious
rain. Today was also the first time we had warm showers since last week as
well! It's been pretty cold here which is beyond rare, but he we have sun (and
humidity) again so that's always worth a SMILE!!
And: Isabelle got baptized. It
was super great, even though it was a small bapteme with not that many people. She
was just so happy, and what kind of made me chuckle: after she came out of the
water after being baptized she yells "MERCI...MERCI" haha...at least
the spirit is still here. Isabelle is awesome, and I couldn't have said it
better myself!!
Had lecons with Vairea this
week and she told us that she was finally going to "break the news"
to her very Catholique famille that she's taking the missionary lecons. She
said "I have my cousins' support and the love from Heavenly Father to back
me up. Set my bapteme for the 12 Mars." ....oh..woah...OK!! Might as well!
"I wanna work for that date, and nothing can get in the way of MY
salvation." No lie...her courage kinda of surprised me, because she's been
timid for a while about talking to her famille, but I now see her love for the
gospel and her testimony in her face every time we see her! "I CAN DO ALL
THINGS."
Funny little story: So Dawson
is our other Bapteme fixe for the 19 Mars, and he absolutely loves church and
reading the Livre de Mormon. We were blessed from la famille TEIHO to get two
more amis who loved coming to their soiree familials on monday evenings, Arii
and Wilder. We had a lecon with them this past Saturday, and their friend in
the TEIHO famille, Kawkehe, was there too, AND so was DAWSON. Hahaha...he's
acting like a member integrateur before he's even baptized. He's a cute kid,
and he even told us he thinks his bapteme will bring his famille to take the
lecons too! We had a lecon with Dawson about familles and the temple; we talked
about how great it is to become an eternal famille and be sealed to your loved
ones for ETERNITY. At the end of that lecon he literally said "wow....je
veux ça." Haere maru, haere papu...petit a petit....little by little (or
slow and steady) his famille will know of the blessings of the gospel too!!
This past Tuesday we had to go
en ville all day for transfers, and Soeur Lawrence got a new fille straight off
the plane from Provo, Soeur Sanchez. At the end of the meeting Elder
Tia-soi-chang and Elder Pruett (the assistants) were talking about what it's
like to be in a car sector....no lie I like the car, but I really want to be on
a bike #beeninacarsinceday1 SO Elder Tia pulls the cat out of the bag and tells
me that I may as well get to love the car, because I'll be called as STL
(sister training leader) soon.....WHAT??? I mean that's great, but normally you
get that assignment when you're at your YEAR mark...not your HALF WAY mark. But
hey...we'll see!
Other than that this week has
been pretty chill like the people! I hope y'all have a great week full of
sunshine, smiles, and some snow (or rain for those in the south).
I love y'all! Je vous aime! Ua
here au ia outou!
-Tuahine/Soeur Morrill :)
