This week was such a good week! My time here
keeps getting better and better! Even the hard days. This week again me and
comp went out tracting. We didn't have much success but it was a great
experience! Haha we went around giving out pamphlets and pamphlet in Tongan is
"tohi tufa" but me being a palangi and not really knowing the
language when we were talking to this lady i called it a "tohi tafu' and
"tafu" in Tonga is like this paper they use to burn in fires to get
the fire big. So basically i told the lady to use the pamphlet to burn in the
fire. Hahah it was so embarrassing. Me and my comp walked away and we just
laughed!
My companion and I are the STL's for two zones
here on the main island. Its been a fun experience! We also have a car which is
nice! Hahah except for everything is opposite here. They drive on the opposite
side of the road, the steering wheel is on the opposite side too. Even the
handle for the blinker is on the opposite side and i always forget so whenever
we go to turn i always turn on the windshield wipers instead haha! People know
its us when were driving because our windshield wipers are always on. My comp
always makes fun of me haha!
Tonight we are having family night with this
darling family in our area. The dad died last year and the mom has been working
so hard to provide for their family. She has four kids and two of them have
come to church a couple of times. I always love going to visit them and the
kids really want to take lessons but the mom doesn't think she''s ready right
now. Hopefully after tonight she will be ready!
My companion and I have been studying
Christlike attributes. This week was virtue. Its been such a testimony builder
to study the attributes of Christ. I know I've said it before but when we
strive to be more like him it makes a difference in our lives. Remember to be
an example to those around you and strive to change each and every day!
Not much happened this week but it was a good
week! Tomorrow is zone conference and me and my companion have to teach. That
will be fun! I cant wait to talk to you guys on Mothers day :) Have a great
week! Ofa ATu!
