O geez another week bites the dust, things are going awesome we have three baptisms this weekend. It is a samoan family again. They are way cool, but the mom always feeds us a massive feed when we go over. I was depressed the other night because of how large and in charge i was getting and i told elder uelese my new samoan kiwi companion, You have to help me lose weight you have to eat more of the food...because he wants to go home fat? yah...weirdo. so we decided that i just eat a little bit but take a long as time to eat so it looks like i am eating alot. so last friday we tried it and i was feeling awesome i was full but i didnt feel like i was going to pop...then she brought out dessert...i looked at elder uelese " i hate this lady" just when i thought i had done it she sucker punched me with dessert and alot of it. hahaha. our plan failed us.
we are having a hard time finding people to teach. we are finding people but none of them want to change or do anything to recieve the blessings of the gospel. so we read in the morning alma ch. 26 and it lifted us. the power of the book of mormon, it tells you exactly what you need when you need it. "Bare with patience thine afflictions, and i will grant unto you success" i am learning alot of lessons out here in the mission that will help prepare me to endure to the end of my life. Patience was a huge weakness of mine at the beginning but now it is becoming one of my strengths. i now know that gods promises will all be fullfiilled but in his time when we have been prepared for the blessings or the answers.
We are having heaps of fun together it is elder Uelese's last transfer and i am going to help him go home strong. New Years was annoying as the neighbors didnt go to sleep at all and just bumped their dumb as music, elder uelese was going to go out and kill them haha we had an awesome week i hope everything is going well back home. keep it real i love all of you and i know god does too.
