It's been a fun week!
This week we had a little Tour de Fiji. On Tuesday, we
flew up to Labasa to do a leadership training on Wednesday. We did some
exchanges with the elders there and then on Thursday we flew to Nadi to have
another leadership training over there. And we flew back to Suva on
Friday. It was a fun couple of days in which we had a lot of time to
learn from President and Sister Layton and all their knowledge and life
experiences. It's so fun to be around them!
Things are going pretty well in our area. We finally
got Vilikesa to come to church and he said that he liked it! He and his
wife Lia are making great progress. We are working with Matilda, a 9 year
old girl whose family is mostly members. She and her siblings all came to
church yesterday as well but we're still working with her mom. But once
her mom is willing she is ready to be baptized. Some other great progress
we saw this week was with Kesa! She's been on and off lately because of
the situation with her husband, but we went to visit on Saturday and her
husband happened to be there. It was way awesome because we never see her
husband because he is always working, but we got to get to know him and sit
down with him, and we decided to talk about eternal marriage. He thought
it was really cool and wants to learn more! It was a miracle! And
to make things better he dropped off Kesa to church in a taxi before going to
work, which before he didn't even like her going to church. We're super
excited!
I got to baptize a girl named Joti this week who we have
been teaching a bit. She goes to a different ward but we taught her a lot
of the lessons because her fellowshippers are in our area. She had been
going to church for more than two years and finally decided to get
baptized. One of the most prepared people I have met! Her baptism
was awesome.
Love,
Elder Harris
