Week #12 - September 17th, 2017 - RAIN & RAINBOWS


 Tim Tam slammmm with Sister Howard!
KIA ORA!

Okay, I'm missing the sun in California and the ocean so much!! It's been rainy and chilly here lately but there have been heaps of gorgeous rainbows!! so I'm not complaining. haha So this week I've been getting used to my new area! It's so great!! We mostly work with less-actives and part-member families, one of the less actives brought her partner to church! He's from Tonga so I talked to him in Tongan for a little bit (I tried to lol). He was so surprised that a blonde Palangi girl could speak some Tongan haha it was so funny! we're gonna get the elders in the Tongan program to hopefully start teaching him!!

I'm basically killing 3 sisters lol but hey, I ain't trunky!!

This past weekend there has been heaps of Tongans coming to the VC and some of them went to Liahona High School and remember Grandma and Grandpa Pulsipher!! They said that they remember when they were little going to the dental office to Grandpa. haha So crazy!! a lot of the islanders that come in always just want to do their own thing and ignore the missionaries. haha When this happens I'll walk by and say something in Tongan or Samoan that will get there attention and then they'll start listening to us haha so that's cool!

Sister Tauhiro and cows (we have to wait for the
cows to pass sometimes to keep driving
haha so we go play with them haha)


Anyways this week was good, I learned a lot. I was reading an article on prayer and learned that we may not find that our difficulties or trials are taken away when we pray and ask for help but that through prayer we learn to WALK through our trials with God and we will find so much peace, hope, and understanding. Sometimes the answers to our prayers come simply in gaining a new perspective on things, an eternal perceptive. If we pray daily to our Father in Heaven, He will help us and He will listen. Remember you can always rely on your Heavenly Father.

I LOVE YOU ALL HEAPS! ofa lahi atu

arohanui, xo
