Bula gang.
I know I said this last week but I lied.....this has
been the busiest week of my life. There was so much going on, and at
times I felt pretty out of control, but it was really good because it pushed me
out of my comfort zone.
We started out with a zone conference on Tuesday with the
Suva North Zone and the Independent Zone. It was way fun and went well
considering it was Elder Faamoe and I's first one. But we had a good time
and were excited to listen to President and Sister Layton and their
presentations.
So the Independent Zone is all the outer islands who don't
fit into another zone: Tuvalu, Rotuma, and Kadavu. They are the ones who
are just out there all alone for a few months, but this was the week where they
all come in and get new companions. We are technically the zone leaders
over them, so we were responsible for taking care of them for the week.
That was pretty fun, especially because I used to be in Tuvalu. So we had
a meeting with them on Wednesday because we won't be able to have another one
for a long, long time. The only other type of meeting we have is a
conference call district meeting every week for just a short time.
And on Thursday we had a Mission Leadership Council meeting
with all the leaders from around the mission. It went really well and we
talked about ways we could keep the Fiji Suva Mission going strong! The
mission has been doing so good this year and we talked about things that will
help us continue keeping the fire! It was a good meeting.
And finally after all that we got to do some work in our
area. The last two weeks we have felt really good about our area and our
investigators until Sunday haha when they don't come to church. So we are
reevaluating how we can help our investigators understand that. Mele and
Kesa are doing pretty good. We have been able to have some good lessons
with Mele, the Tongan lady who is coming back to church, and Kesa as
well. But Kesa is having a few problems with her husband that we're not
too sure about so we're just going to keep trying and praying everything will
work out there. We tried seeing Salutu and Alice quite a lot this week
but they were busy everytime. We'll see how that goes. But we've
found some new investigators who look really good. Bruce's sister, named
Tima, is one of them who is really interested in the Restoration.
But in all it was a good week. It was tiring but I
learned so much and I am excited to continue to lay it all out for the Lord.
Love,
Elder Harris
