August 21st




These are excerpts from Robert today. We ended up just sending some questions back and forth so its a
little disjointed for you all reading this but one of my goals is to save this info for Elder Jones when he comes home so we can talk about all the things we don't have time to talk about one hour a week. So sorry if its weird.


The last 3 weeks has been a blast and I feel like speaking wise I've taken a leap because all day long I have to keep them on the same page. Elder Allen has pretty darn good english but not fluent and Elder Sewell is still struggling with the Samoan so I'm gateway to everything we do. Its been really fun though because they're both just hilarious. What specifically do you want to know though? We've had like 4 baptisms this month have 4 marriages to do this week and then a baptisms as well and then the first week of September will be a total of 5 Baptisms I think unless God puts anyone else in our path before then. ?Busy busy busy is the story but its really fun. Any specific questions? I'm in for a chat. PS I finished the SD card last night with a video of a speech Elder Allen put on. a Samoan speech. Its pretty sweet. I'll have it in the mail this week for you all. :)

So Elder Allen Came because Elder Murray got transferred to Tutuila to be a ZL and then I got his comapnion along with becoming the new DL. SO I'm training the both of them and leading the District as of 3 weeks ago... I don't understand the second question... SO the letters I have not stopped writing but The business has increased like 3 fold since I've been in Lalovi so I seldom make it to bed on time therefore I do my journal and skip the letters. I'm super sorry but I'm just aiming to get some sleep each night. 11:30 or 12 is my average time I make it to bed. But I still do wirte here and there at night when I get a chance.
I tried the wifi but it  didn't work out... No we weren't in a parade at all. I don't know when he was. Probably on the backside because up front they just had a big party at the church. Backside of the island...

Well its a bit difficult due to the language but it sure is teaching me a lot. Elder Allen is a native from Fusi Safata on the backside of the island. If I ever get to serve in the office I think there is wifi there but I don't know we'll see. 3 days to close that thing!?!?! Thats pretty crazy!! I'd probably be worse because I odn't know how to use phones anymoe... At least buttonless ones... ;) ANy other questions?
 THIS IS THE WEIRD PART I WAS REFERING TO. I HAD JUST TOLD HIM HE COULD READ A CEREAL BOX AND IT WOULD MAKE ME HAPPY CAUSE I JUST LOVE HEARING HIS VOICE. ;)
No news on the debit card.
Lalovi ward stake amd windows vista alcatel onetouch sharp 12digit 2 color printer. ;) Not a cereal box but all the gadgets and doodads over here in the clerks office. ;) My time is up though mommy so know that I flipping love the crap out of you guys and I'm praying for you like all time! THanks for all the love and support. 
Love Elder Jones
