Loved the emails this week!!!
Haha feels like I haven't gotten one in ages from the bros! Haha the
dog bite is fine no worries there! (He got another dog bite--it happens often apparently) It's slowly healing with the hippie
salve!!! (Thanks Holly and Mike!!!!!)
Here's a couple sentences for Garrett!!
"GAAAARRRRREEEEETTTTTT!!!!
haha I love ya bud and hope that as you continue doing good things and
following the perfect example of Jesus Christ, your parents will be
proud of you and so is you Heavenly Father! Congradulations bud and keep
the faith!! And take care of your brothers too!!!"
Welp, this is whats the week has been like.....
Wednesday-We
had a conference with Pres Hanneman, his wife and the APs! Cool as experiences too!!! The whole morning the APs and Pres H
and his wife taught about Find, Teach, and Baptize! And then the ZL's,
the other DL, and I all taught a little 20 section through kind of like
a station thing, and then we went on a blitz in the Leone elders area,
back to the first area!!!! Welp, E Faalogo and I went with Pres H and
his wife, and we were kind of in the back behind the rest of everyone
going to the blitz, but we decided to take a different road, we began
with a prayer, and then was off! The first house we came to a lady and a
younger guy were sitting out front..and then we just went! We got to
familiarize ourselves with them and then found out the lady wasn't a
member, but the guy was, just less active for the last 12 years with his
wife and kids...the lady and him are cousins, and she works for the
first lady over here in American Samoa! The guy, Mayne, got beat up and
looked in pretty bad shape a couple nights before and wasn't able to
work to help his family out....BUT! We taught a little lesson on Plan of
Salvation towards the woman, cause her dad passed away, and her mom is
in Irie, or Irvis in Cali right now having treatment cause they cant'
get good treatment over here cause the hospital stinks! We sang Families
Can be Together Forever, and then while we were singing, we saw that
Mayne, the guy, starting singing with us, mouthing the words, and then
she was way crying at the end it was soooooooooooo spiritual!!!!! Cause to top it off, she told us afterwards she saw us
walking, then saw us turn around to come down this road, and wanted to
call out to us to stop by, but didn't want to interrupt or sound rude or
anything, but when we ended up coming around the corner, she was so
grateful, cause she wanted us to stop by!!!!!! Hopefully the elders there have followed up with her and
his family!!!!!
Jake wasn't able to get
baptized this week, cause he still hasn't quit smoking, but he's reset
for the 18th and he wanted to pay tithing so we helped him pay his
tithing this week and it was sweet as to see him, not even a member yet,
but still wants to help contribute to the Lord!!!!! WHAM!! And then
Keech, George's little brother is getting baptized this Saturday
fo sho!!!!!! George is gonna baptize him, it's gonna be cool as!!!!!!
He's been such a skux and wants to follow his older brother, and
hopefully bring his family back together and hopefully all of them into
the church!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Welp, as yous can see
as well, I'll be staying in Tafuna for another 6 weeks, which I actually
pretty stoked so that I can see all these peeps get baptized!!!!! I'm
stoked!!!! But THEN I'll be ready for Upolu or Savaii or something new!!
LOVE YOUS ALL AND HOPE YOUS HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEK!!!
Love Elda Laason!!!!
