October 24



Well here's some pictures for you because time is fast again on p-day but I hope this can make up for the last couple of weeks. The work is blowing up here in Satalo and Malaemalu. Our district is a blast and the branch is really doing a great job at helping us bring people back to church, and converting the new friends they've given to us to work with.
Love you guys!!!!
I'm here with 2 new companions by the way. Elder Misimoa who is from here in nofoalii and is probably the best of missionaries in all Samoa and elder Patiole who is from Sydney Australia. They're great elders and we're having a blast working together especially with sisters Long and Ameto.

October 3

So these are all pictures of me and my companions and also the family/house we live with/in. Its pretty fun over here. Its the branch president and his family. they're all a blast and he's especially hilarious. I'll miss this guy when we live but I'm sure we'll be back to visit him at some point in my life. The word is supposed to be tafi not taxi...

This week has been a good week we had more than 20 people extra come to church this last Sunday and the priesthood is all there so now we're just working on like 9 different families who are all part member families that area all very less active... They're making progress though but they will fill up the chapel even though church is just done in the house of a member family and is already full it'll be bursting at the seems and then Monson will have to send the okay to build us a chapel over here.

Sister Schwenke asked president Hanneman for a car and got a van to take people to the temple and the visitors center in the temple all the time. Its pretty cool... I just don't have a license though so its a little bit lame too..
