General Conference

Week 67

11 April 2016

Best General Conference quote "For those who don't know the Celestial Language" What a funny guy!!! President Uchtdorf, haha.. I loved that bit. I learned a tonne from all that spoke but especially President Monson, Uchtdorf, Elder Holland. Elder Rasband, and Chrstopherson. I felt a lot of things apply to me and a lot of teaching I learnt and feel I can use while on my mission if i can be creative in the ways they are taught :) It was awesome, my companion though was more excited to listen to the Conference haha more than me :)  

I watched it in English, the chapel has a computer so we just watched it there in the clerks office while the members watched it in Fijian in the chapel. I want to download the talks and just listen to them because they were so powerful. I got so excited when Elder Cook spoke about Fiji and the Cyclone that came to us during the re dedication. 

This last week we didn't get to do much due the effects of the Cyclone just gone. Heavy rains and flooding galore as well. So we couldn't do much, we spent a couple days at home, and had nothing to do but eat and finish off personal things. We did a lot of eating and cooking.  I cooked some Samoan pancakes (panikeke faasamoa lol) made a fijian dish called Suruwa Ika which is like curried fish with rice or tavioka (up to you). A member gave me 2 massive whole fishes so I gutted, scaled and cut them up to make us a nice dinner lol. I've made a Indian dish also called Pumpkin curry, made it with rice and home made Roti. We also made chocolate chip cookies with ice cream, not to mention the dinner appointment lol. A lot of food we ate this week ..I feel so fat haha...

The mission is going well. We have scheduled a baptism this weekend -  hopefully all goes to plan :) 

I think a lesson that has being mine to learn is understanding that some of us are planters, farmers and harvesters. We all play different roles in peoples conversions but the spirit does the main conversion and makes it meaningful and special to the person.

 Hoping for a stronger and brighter week the week, the weather has cleared and hopefully stays like that.  :D 

Anyways though love you all, take care please :D Thank you for all your prayers also :D
