ALOHA family and loved ones. . . so sorry that I'm so behind in my blog posts. Know that our Elder is being faithful in writing to his family each week. I just don't always have time to sit and update the blog. Mahalo for your support of our Elder!
October 23, 2016
This week was slow in the work but the week goes by way fast. No one is ever home and when we set appointments they never are home. They are not ready to come back yet I guess. We work with our less actives a lot and they are trying hard. We have them preparing to teach us lessons so that they can pray more often as they prepare to teach us the lesson. We pray often, me and my comp so we can stay focused and not give up. I like one of the articles that is given in October's Ensign called The Blessings of Obedience where President Monson says "The greatest lesson we can learn in mortality is that when God speaks and we obey we will always be right." We have trials we go through but nothing that God gives us can't be over some and we can look at it as a stumbling block or a stepping stone.
We had interviews with President Cummings this past week and I shared with him my concerns about my health because the members feed us fatty food all the time. Never do we get any greens. It's all fish and chips and I honestly think I might get diabetes with all of the starches we get fed and deep friend things. I'm not starving. That's good but I might be breaking the Word of Wisdom. Lol! We work out hard but we aren't as fortunate like other sisters and elders. They have a gym nearby to go to. I might need some Purium stuff! Nah, just joke!
I miss you all. Hope to hear from you again. I really am missing the comforts of home and the food, friends, and everything at home. I miss sports and work. Just pray for me and my companion to keep moving forward and our area in small Wairoa.
Love you, Ofa Atu!!!
