Crazy week

This week was one that I would be ok not living again haha. I was in a trio with some other elders waiting for my new companion, who's flight from American Samoa got delayed and he got here a day late. Then the next day we spent at the hospital because some other sisters were sick. We got home that night and had to run some quick errands for President at like 11 at night, as well as the night afterwards. We then had to drop off some missionaries on the 6am boat. Lucky we asked president if we could just sleep till district meetings at 10am so that was nice. Then we had to take the 6am boat today to drop off baptismal papers in Upolu. I almost threw up this morning. Honestly, was a tough week and we didn't get to proselyte very much. But very much looking forward to this next week!

We have a baptism  this week with this girl named Fale. She has been a work in process. We had to ask her 80 year old grandpa for permission to baptize her. So here we are with my old companion who is a native, and our ward mission leader and the old grandpa. We talked a little bit then the ward mission leader looks at me and my companion and my companion just looks at me. I was like oh shoot. I just tried to use as many super respectful words that I know and ask permission. What a blessing from God that it worked. My new companion Elder Tiatia is the man, he is from New Zealand and has 5 months left. Next week we will be the oldest companionship in the mission. The work moves forward!

New Companion!!

Transfers were today which made for a longggg day. Elder Sao got transferred to the other side of Savaii and I am staying here! I am going to miss Elder Sao a ton, he was such a good, humble elder. My new companion is Elder Tiatia! He is from New Zealand and we have worked together a lot through out the mission. I am honestly so hyped. He comes tomorrow so I am in a trio with some other elders waiting for him to come.

This last week was awesome. We have seen so many miracles it has been such a blessing. I love this area and I love this work. Not a whole lot of time to write today but all is well here in Savaii!

Found the End of the Rainbow

Legit saw the end of a rainbow for the first time in my life. This past week we have grinded. We legit worked so hard trying to find new friends and work with the members. It all payed off yesterday when we visited a referral yesterday and talked to the dad of the family, we invited the mother to come and talk with us. She sits down and first thing she says is "My sister is getting baptized this Saturday". Turns out her sister lives in another area and is getting baptized, and we are doing her baptismal interview on Friday anyways. Long story short, her and her husband both accepted baptism for next month. The Lord is always preparing people. We have zone conference tomorrow which we are really looking forward to!

 This kid legit ran all way down the street to walk with us-never met her before haha

Hard Work Makes the Dream Work

Man this week was awesome and sooooo busy! We had 2 baptisms last Saturday for Se'epa and Kapeteni! I am in awe sometimes of how things are run here haha. Lots of members don't know what they are doing. I am thankful to be here and help the kingdom grow! We went back to Upolu yesterday for a meeting with President and the other ZL's. They are no doubt the most spiritual meetings I have on the mission. We were able to go to the temple also...bless up. We have been working so hard here trying to get things going. The Lord is always blessing us!!!
