How was everyones last couple of weeks?
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL THE MOTHERS OUT THERE!
Didn't write last week cause I didn't feel like it to be honest and nothing happened at all, but I do this week lol, but last week though was lit, last District Meeting of the transfer so you know we posted up and posed for days 
on the real though District Meeting is always good. We went out and visited a few of our less active families with our Ward Mission Leader and had the best response from our visits we could ever get. First family we visited we were able to set up a F.H.E with her and her brother for the purpose of teaching her brothers partner the Gospel and get comfortable with missionaries, so hopefully activating 2 families and possibly convert one straight gangs opportunity. Second was a family we put on "pause" lol President doesn't like us using the word drop but yea we visited them, well tried to visit them so many times last transfer and this transfer and either they won't answer (even though we know they're home) or they would just open the door a little bit and wouldn't talk to us lol yep good times, But when we went this time they just full on swung the door open for us and told us to come in which was surprising but we went and talked with their family and they were going through a lot of trials just recently. We did a prayer with them and then placed a blessing on them as well on their request, 4th time giving a blessing so eshay exercising the Priesthood hehehe. Then we found out that they wanted their son who is 9 to be baptised so now we have a return appointment with their family and are able to see them more often.

On Wednesday we had MTC exchanges so went out with the new missionaries for 5 hrs doing visits with our less active members a bit of tracking and a good feed for lunch. I got Paired up with Elder Sayer from Straya lol born and raised in Toowomba just outside of Brisvegas, the guys kickback and on to it and also Elder Weber from Bolivia this guys just dripping in swagoo lol and they're coming to the Apex mission, NZ Hamilton. We got more referrals for the Samoan Ward which we went and visited and now we're teaching them, so our teaching pool is expanding by the week which is going to keep us really busy which is good and tiring lol. Getting fed so much it's not even funny anymore lol the members double booking us for dinner so yep almost 2 dinner appointments every other night and 2 kilos gained every week lol , but I gotta have faith in losing, keeping fit for the work. It's hard saying no to Island food.
Any who it was good skyping home yesterday seeing family and friends good talk yea.
