Hello family and friends...

sorry i havent written in a while...just a little update on how things are here in Rongai...today we recieved transfer news and im still with my companion elder mangenela...im happy that none of us is leaving cause we are having much success together...this past week we had three baptizms, so im very grateful for that...we baptized a young couple who has one child and the other was the wife of our previous baptizm a few weeks ago...

well, its too bad because we dont get conference here...but my companion and i printed out the talks so im grateful we get that much...the work is definetly moving here and i truly can testify that the Lords hand is truly helping us...my testimony continues to grow here on mission...i truly feel the Saviors love, as i continue to do the will of the Father...i dont even know where ill be if i wasnt here...

as time winds down, im doing my best to endure just as the Savior did...mission is going great...thank you for your encouraging emails, they truly do strenthen me and helps me to do better...have a great week!!!

hello family and friends...



This past week was another great one for us...we have two great sisters who will be baptized this week, so we are soo excited for that...the Lord has truly assisted us here in Rongai...we have been fasting and praying that the Lord may help us find and in result the Lord has truly helped us...we have more people now than i have ever had since i have been here...there are soo many miracles in our district that are soo powerful and sacred to me...well, on the other side, it has been really hot...the sun is no joke here for sure...just last week i heard from some of the people that a big earthquake hit Samoa...i pray that everyone there will be comforted at this time of need...Prayer has been a true spiritual gift to me since i have been on mission...in any given time the Lord is there to hear your sincere prayer...not just when you need something, but to always thank Him for His tender Love and to express gratitude...He is truly a 911 call in time of need and the 411 to know where to go and what to do...as we offer up our sincere prayers to Him, He will guide and direct us for good through His Spirit...thank you for all your encouraging emails and for your love...look forward to hearing from you all soon...have a great week...


love always
