Onz tu mada ga
Bula!
It's been a great week here in........Nausori! Haha
yeah I'm still here. Looks like I'll have another transfer with Elder
Lautogia, which I am way stoked about because we are seeing so much good in our
area right now.
Transfers were this week and we had a few changes in our
zone. Interestingly we now have two Fijian ward missionaries in our zone
who will be serving this transfer because the mission is short on
missionaries. One of them is preparing to go on a mission and the other
was serving in New Zealand until he had to come home for health problems.
We're way excited for both of them to help us out.
Man I am really excited for our area. The past few
weeks have been shaky but this week people started to turn around. Liti
has been doing awesome and has pretty much turned her life around these past
two weeks. She quit smoking and drinking tea and is really excited about
being baptized in a few weeks time. It is so cool to see how the gospel
changes people! Evia, the lady in the wheelchair, has also had quite a
change of heart. She was really skeptical of baptism before, but when we
went over this week, she told us that while she was reading the Book of Mormon
she had a feeling that she needed to be baptized! We gave her a date, and
now we are just trying to get all the logistics figured out (she hasn't left
her house in over two years). We are grateful that she could feel the
sweet influence of the Spirit to prompt her to take that step in her life.
Another investigator that we met a few weeks ago was
Misiviliame. He is an older man, very well educated, who has been around
many different Christian denominations in his lifetime. When we first met
him, he told us he was impressed by the organization of the LDS church.
He said he could tell just by the way we looked that we meant business.
Well we taught him the message of the Restoration and he really liked it, but
we could tell he had a lot of reservations about being baptized and joining, so
we simply invited him to church. Well were excited when he showed up with
his friend Brother Biu! He changed a lot during church and was very
interested in everything afterward. He even told one of the members in
our ward that he wanted a calling! Haha we are excited to say the
least.
That's all for this week, till next time.
Love,
