Week 21 - Catching Fire

This was an amazing week!!! It is so hot here!!!!! Walking down to a lesson Elder Paki's shoe got stuck on the road because the tar was melting!!! But the work is heating up too. People are finally used to us being back and keeping their commitments!!! We had less fall throughs this week and ended up teaching a lot of people!!! And we had a lot of good lessons. Thanks to the members finding people, we gained 6 new investigators this week!!!! 

Monday and Tuesday were kinda uneventful but Wednesday is when we took off!! We planned out for 9 lessons and a lot of walking. We went off to go see 2 recent converts, Tema and his cousin Tion (Sean). We had great lessons with them. We finished off Tema's lessons and next time we see him we can start reviewing. Then we went to go see are best investigator Omeli. We invited him to baptism and he accepted the 9th of January!!! He is a way good investigator!!! Then we walked to the bottom of the island to teach this women named Seni. We have just shared bible verses with her but we decided it was time to teach the Restoration. She liked it all the way until Joseph Smith, then she got quiet and started to tell us that their where no other prophets after Jesus and that the bible is the only book of scripture. We got into a little mini bible bash and ended up getting her to commit to praying about Joseph Smith. After her lesson, we went back up to town and saw a couple more people. We had dinner with a member at 3T's then closed out the night teaching Teruka (Logotau's brother). That was by far the best day I have had here. 

The rest of the week was uneventful. We have our youth conference this next week and it should be fun. We have been invited to help with that and play some of the games too so that should be exciting. But that's all I got. Love all of you guys and hope that you guys have a great week!!!!
