General Conference!

General Conference was good, I can tell you just about everybody in Samoa is HYPED about the 2 hours of church, I think most people already follow this practice haha. I really enjoyed President Nelson talking about the Name of the church as well. So many times we hear "Loku Mamoga" which just means Mormon church. I am pretty sure nonmembers in Samoa don't even know the actual name of our Church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. So gonna have to start going away from the word Mamona. 

Apolo got married this morning! Which means she will be baptized this Saturday! We are super excited for her. Talia, which is the old Chief guy will most likely get baptized this Saturday as well. We will know for sure tonight if it will happen. We also moved up the other high chiefs baptism to next week!! So he will be baptized next week with another guy named Alofa.

We had zone conference this past week. It was really good as we talked about other styles of teaching and how we can make our lessons shorter, and how to better teach lessons, not people. I think it really helped a lot. We also did Baptisms for the dead with 3 of our recent converts yesterday! Love the temple.

Overall things going well here in Samoa, the future is always bright!
