Hey Everyone!!!!!
Okay the Fiji word this week is Light which is cina but you
pronounce it like the Greek Goddess Athena, but with out the first A so
Thena. (HAHA when I found out It was spelled with a c instead of
a th I was shocked but ya!!!)
So crazy thing that happened this week we wound up with a
flat tire late Friday night! So we called our District Leader and he came out
to the rescue to put the doughnut on! ( When Sister Soko heard it called a
doughnut she was just so confused but then we explained that it is what we call
the spare tire.) Then the next day we went to the Les Swab tire place and they
fixed it, well it was so bad that they had to replace the whole tire but pretty
funny!
This week Soko and I worked on getting a goal
of 50 other lessons which is a principle and a prayer. And we didn't
really get any new investigators but we definitely were able to leave them with
a better impression of the Church! We were able to get 65 other lessons and
then 2 Lessons with a member present. So it was awesome! One lady that answered
the door excitedly asked us if we were here to wish her a Happy Birthday and we
said of course and then sang her Happy Birthday! She was awesome and when
we said the prayer with her she was so thankful for us coming to see her:) We
also met a Budi? So, if I'm pronouncing it correct, They pretty much believe
in anyone who says they are sent from God. So from Buddha to Jesus Christ to
Joseph Smith, etc. and we tried to say a prayer and he insisted that he
says one so we let him. He read this prayer out of a book and it was super
weird because I could not feel the spirit at all. That is the reason why we try
to say the prayer, so they can feel the spirit and want us to come back! (but
it still counted for an other lesson)
We also met this super awesome African American women
with the voice and everything! Who was totally for learning more and asked if
we believe in Jesus and in giving blessings and we said that we do and she
was all for us and to learn more until we said Mormon! and she didn't want
to take our card:) But she still wants us to come over and tell her
more about what we believe and also tell us what she believes in about a week.
She ended up saying the prayer and it was one of the Hallelujah type prayers
which was fun! So I can't wait to go back and talk to her again.
I know without a doubt that this is God's Kingdom on the
Earth and I feel so honored to be able to be Heavenly Father's
Instrument and to work along side him in the field.
Lots of Love!!!
