Man what a transfer! It was only one transfer with Elder Poloai but I'm really gonna miss him but life goes on and you gotta keep on moving forward. Wednesday night we a had a nice dinner at a restaurant that the Samoan family did for us cause Elder Poloai was leaving most of them were from his village in Lufilufi so they wanted to do something for him. Man the food was good.
So, Thursday morning I dropped my companion off in the morning and waited for my son (trainee) to come in the arvo. When the bus finally arrived you can say I was pretty nervous, An Elder jumped off the bus and before I could read his tag I was like "Yo, that's my man right there" lol. Did the introductions and my bruv from Wales, Elder Williams has also transfered into this District so you know we still gonna be lit. Then went off and had Hungry Jack's with the District before heading back to Tokoroa. Elder Heward from Provo, Utah is my first son, so you know ya boy is gonna teach him the ways of the dragon hehehe jks, nah it's gonna be a lit 12 weeks.
Last weekend was pretty lit we headed off to Mangekino a small town, we cover 40 mins from Tokoroa and visited members as well and less actives and did a bit of door knocking. Man it was good to finally come out to this town and show some love after spending most of last transfer working around Tokoroa, but we cover about 5 small towns each about 30 mins from Tokoroa so we gonna get our drives on this transfer. Some great members in Mangekino, the people were a bit non receptive and mean lol but it seems like it's been a long time since they seen missionaries or it's something new to most which I think is awesome so we defs visiting more often. There's a nice small lake where we took photos as well. Had a Service on Saturday helping the elder members in our ward fix up their lawn since it was a beautiful day after weeks of rain and Sunday had a nice Hangi and boil up with Sister brown and her family.

So over all a nice week and a nice transition in Elders, as it looks like Elder Heward is pretty lit and an awesome guy with good morals and just chill as so definitely looking forward to training him. This week we have ahead is gonna be busy which is good, I missed the workload we had in South Auckland so looking forward to working myself out just like my last area. Oh yeah happy days when I found a shop that sells Vietnamese Pork Rolls
