Hey everyone I hope that your New Years has gone great! My new years has been pretty great! To start off the week, Limwee our girl that comes teaching with us wanted to come with us on Monday night but we had another Member present with us, named Mary Sahm but she had to go back home so i go whelp lets go get Limwee! So we drive to her house and she is waiting on the side of the road! I say get in! She comes and hops in she starts speaking in Pohnpain saying, "YES! I prayed that you guys would come! I was sitting at home thinking man i really want to join the sisters tonight so i prayed. And then i had a feeling that i needed to go and get in the shower and get ready for you guys to come! So i showered and put on my dress and came and waited for you by the road!" She was the cutest thing! So that boosted my faith.
Then on Tuesday i whipped up 3 cakes for the members and took it to them! Tuesday morning we did service with a less active family, the Siamon Family. We just pulled weeds and "mwutd" means clean the mud free of weeds!
On Wednesday we went walking because its walking Wednesday you know! :) So off we went talking to everyone! We were led to so many part member families and to so many new investigators! It was amazing!
On Thursday we went to Zone Conference! It was awesome! In the meeting one of the Elders said that he was talking to an elderly couple on Guam and the elderly couple had said that they heard the quarm of the 70ty were talking about a temple coming to Micronesia!! (Well im not really sure who was talking about it but anyways...) they said if it comes it would come to Pohnpei because Pohnpei is the strongest island with the church on it! WAHOOO!!!!!!!! And then they told us that Elder Holland is going to Tokyo next month and for some reason is stopping on GUAM TO TALK TO OUR MISSION!!!!!!! WTH?!?! How crazy!! President Zarbock has no idea why he is coming either! So i am really excited! ELDER HOLLAND EVERYONE!!
On Friday we were able put Ivas Kataus little brother Wetson on date so that was really awesome!
Saturday was a day full of miracles! We went and did service with one of our investigators Kikileen and then we went to go do service with one of our other investigators names Uren, but she wasn't there it was just her mom. So we told her mom we were here to do service and then she asked us to come back another time but asked if we could come back tonight and do a lesson, they had had some things happen in their family and Satan was really working on them, so i decided to share with her a scripture from mosiah 18:18-21 i believe that talks about praying always! When we started our lesson we started with a song, and from that moment on she had tears in her eyes, she had to go talk to someone during the lesson, and while she was gone Sister wari asked me if she had eaten, i just kinda brushed it to the side and said i am sure she has, but when she came back it and sat back down she looked at us with tears in her eyes and said "When Uren gets back we will sit down and talk, we are all going to church tomorrow and we are all going to be baptized!" I just sat there in complete shock! I Then asked her if she had eaten she said no, so i knew in that moment what we had to do, we hurried and eneded our lesson and ran to the store and bought her enough food to eat! When we came back she came running to the car, and once again with tears in her eyes, all she could say was "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" I knew in that moment that there was no place i would rather be! Than serving my mission to help Bercy!
On Sunday i was asked to give a talk i stood up and said, " Menseng Mwahu Kumwial koaros, i kapinki ni ansou mwah..." And that was it and then a huge fight broke out! Two little boys started punching each other and it was crazy and then it blew up even bigger! haha so i just stopped talking and went and sat back down, the our branch president stood up and talked about Satan and how Satan is working harder and harder, everything is fine now in the branch! It was pretty funny though ill have to re act it for you all when i get home!
I want you to all know that i know this is the work of the lord, i miss you all so much but there is no place i would rather be! I know that the Lord is guiding me through his work! I love all the people that i have met! I wish that you could come and meet them all! I love you all so much! Have a great week! Be safe! Love you!!!
