Yeah transfers are on monday, we'll see where i end up! This transfer
went so fast! If i end up in a place with no email i'm sorry! I'll do my
best to keep you up to date! Anyway sorry been a couple weeks again.
I'll try to cover some important stuff for you all if you care to read
if not that's okay you are busy and i understand! :) But i love to get
all your emails and mail! I hope you all know that! Sorry if i'm not
always able to respond! I do my best! I was in a little earthquake. Just
studying on my bed then i just started moving and i looked at a
waterbottle and the water in it was moving! Just a small thing nothing
big at all just a little wobble and i was like wooo this is fun! haha No
worries. I'm fine. So over the last 2 transfers been way hard to stay
motivated and focused because of my companion and i guess i kinda almost
forgot what it was like to be a real missionary but we did this family
home evening with this family, just a guy his wife and their little
daughter. They really made an impact on my life for the long run. Just
made me see the importance of the gospel! But coming out of it brought
back the feelings for what i am here for. it was just what i needed! Oh
challenge for you all. Something i'm doing too. I was thinkin the other
day how i can liken the scriptures to myself. Well I'm named after jacob
and aaron from the book of mormon. I decided i'm going to read their
accounts and get all i can from it! Disect every sentence. They were
amazing missionaries so i thought if i could be like the i'll be
successful. I'm only in jacob 3 right now but what has stuck out so far
is jacob 1:19 read it. I've never really thought of the work that way.
Kind of an eye opener to me! So figure out a way to liken the scriptures
to you and act on it! You'll get more from the scriptures and the lord
will bless you abundantly! I got bit by a small dog that actually
surprisingly bit pretty hard. Stupid little thing. I got it unstuck and
it bit me. We've actually done some missionary work over the last couple
weeks. Getting referals (not doing much with them) but getting them,
taught a few lessons. and a little kid is getting baptized on friday!
Thats exciting! We gave a blessing to an old sick man named Feongoi
Tupou. People wonder why i can't remember the name of who is feeding us
today. You see why. I said the closing prayer in sacrament. Okay so
kinda cool. I want you if you can to get your hands on a duty to god
booklet (the new one for boys) and look at the pictures. There is a kid
in a red sweater and a guy in a blue jacket that looks really familiar
if you can tell me who it is in next email i'll be proud of you! We had a
power outage for a few hours one night. Right at the time i needed
light to write in my journal haha. I gave a blind man my flipflops. To
see the joy that brought him was pretty crazy! It really made my day to
see my small act of kindness made someone so happy. He was already such a
cheerful guy but it made him more happy. Never met him before and
probably never will again. But I loved the feeling i got from doing
that. I got a new haircut today. Different kinda style. Not to bad.
Anyway that's really about it! Sorry not more exciting! Hopefully i'll
get to email next week! I love you and miss you all! Thanks for all you
do!
Love,
