"when you gain the trust of the members, you make a strong bond"

Wassup errbody!

Man, what a slow week aye! Slow days and slow week. It's been okay lately with the work, really just being sad that I'll mostly likely be leaving this transfer so definitely going to miss the members of Alfriston Ward with a Bishopric and Ward Mission Leader who are onto it and just members who are willing to help. At first it wasn't like that, total opposite, but when you gain the trust of the members you guys grow on each other and make a strong bond. Gonna miss 'em! Other than that nothing much in the week. We visited less active members and family as well as our teaching appointments, did some tracting and some service and tried to follow up on a referral we were given. All in all it's been an alright week.

 

Yea the lads

Yea the boys! Rima came and stopped by for a visit, had some Carls Jr and Asian, man good talk catching up and getting to know the haps of back home and how everyone is, man really miss the lads. Best thing was when he invited us over for Family Home Evening. Met his parents and the rest of his family. After dinner we had a little message/lesson and shared with the family. I know the spirit was with us and they did too. He's family aren't members so it was a mean experience and opportunity to share a message the we members believe in.

 

with Rima and some of his fams

Jason is now on his last lesson but we feel we might reteach him some of the lessons so he can better understand the Gospel. He's awesome, always happy having a good time in the lessons and excited when we come over. Jodeci, we're still trying to find a good time for the family so we can stop by and have a lesson but they have been busy lately. With Atherton, still finding a translator for him but we go and still see him to see how he's doing and just teach him some primary songs that can help him learn more about our savior.

Our investigators are awesome, the love we have for them to teach them and get to know them and know that the blessings they and their family can receive just by following the example of the Savior, straight gangs.

 

Other than that, nothing much, just being fed everyday which is awesome cause we get to see more and more members and get to know them and hopefully get referrals. We have had dinner appointments everyday from last month to this month. Probably blessings cause my sister always feeds the missionaries.

Well that's all I got for this week.

 

Alofa atu,
