This week has been pretty amazing! Im starting to see the blessings from all our hard work and tracting and it has been so great!
Monday we went to the Prasad's and had family home evening and had dinner. I love visiting with that family and sometimes we get caught up talking to much we get lost track of time Haha. We talked heaps about Christmas and what our families do and what they did back in Tonga. It sounds like Tonga is full of the Christmas spirit!
Tuesday we had district council and that was pretty much it. Did some tracting and inviting people to our ward activity on Saturday. The activity was a swap meet. Everyone in the ward donated stuff they didn't need and people could take whatever they wanted. I'll get to that later though.
Wednesday we had interviews with President Walker and that was pretty good. Transfers should be pretty interesting we will see what happens! We also had another lesson with Selena and taught about the 10 commandments and at the end we committed her to get baptized! It was so awesome and the spirit was so strong! I'm so excited for her and can't wait!!
Thursday we had a ZLC meeting and got to meet with all the leaders in the zone that was fun. We got heaps of training from the zone leaders too. We went to visit with Shui again to figure out all the plans for him and how to help him with smoking. That was pretty cool. He was very excited to take on the challenge.
Friday was weekly planning and we were kinda disappointed.. we sent Shui a text asking if we could come over again because we found out the Chinese sisters were going to be there and we wanted to figure out who was gonna be teaching him and all the other plans. He replied and said that he is going to put off all of the baptism stuff and joining the church until he finds out if he can stay in New Zealand or not. He is here on a limited Visa and might have to leave at the start of the new year... so we wont be going to visit him unless he invites us back again.. kinda sad deal..
Saturday was amazing! We started off the day going to the ward activity and helping g people pack up things they picked out from the swap meet. We also got to talk to one of the people a member has been trying to invite to meet with us that was nice. We than went to go paint a classroom at an elementary school for our day of service. Again I stuck at taking pictures and only took 2 of Elder Baasansuren Haha. We than went back to the swap meet and was told a couple moved into a house right by the chapel and was interested in coming to church and that they might come to church on Sunday. They didn't end up coming though.. also bracken and Selena invited another friend of theirs to Selenas baptism so we might get to teach her too! And we will meet selenas parents this next Sunday! Saturday was so amazing!!! Heaps of nonmembers went to the ward activity so we might get more referrals soon.
Sunday was really good we had another lesson with Quinton and than met with Selena to discuss her baptism date and her program she will be baptized the 15 of December!! I'm so excitedand cant wait! With her parents coming to the baptism and church this Sunday we can possibly start teaching them. I'm so excited for whats to come! It's been a really great week! I can'tbe more excited
I hope you all have an amazing week! Aloha atu!!
Love,
Elder Wilding
