Six Weeks To Go!

Week 100

21 November 2016

Isa lei Viti,

This week had all the missionaries, getting me wayy trunkie telling me I have only 6 weeks left oi auuuee time sure has gone like nothing... I see everything different now, seeing as I am so close to finishing. Its scary but I believe I am somewhat prepared to return home.. Well not really, I love being a missionary and living here in Fiji.

Hard to return home, when this is my home right here. Last Sunday we had our ward primary presentation.. Mann the children always have a way of just softening your heart and making your reflect on how you can become better. As the presentation was going on I thought about my mission and the lessons I had learned from each of the area's and how it has changed me and molded me to be the person  I am today. It is crazy! I thought about the miracles I witnessed in each of my area's too and how I know serving a mission had being the most best experience of my life. on the outside I may be still the same but on the inside I am totally different and that what counts, what on on the inside aye lol

Sisilia's Baptism is approaching very quickly and I am very excited!!! Cannot wait to witness that wonderful moment. I have thought much about my departing testimony though here in the mission. what will I say?? I will have to plan it out well and really think about what I have learned and seen change etc. especially my testimony of Christ. A missionary that just returned from his mission to Navatuyaba arrived on friday and Saturday was his homecoming party. I spoke with him and he said he knew Elder Lemusu in the Philippines and reports that he is well and healthy and has amazing language skills in the Philippines language. I'm proud of him.

Speaking of cousins, Elder Roberts and I are back in the same zone again and I am so happy to see him again before I finish as a missionary. I am so proud of him and how far he has come and changed since being here in the mission. I look forward to catching up with him and catching up with him before finishing. I hope to share all the wisdom I have attained and try help him as much as I can. I love my family. Work is slow here in Navatuyaba but it doesn't mean we give up hope, the members are still strong and it was good to see the less actives at church on sunday to support their children in the presentation.

I am grateful to my saviour for his death. Through his death, he made literally all things possible for us. EVERYTHING is possible through him. I know this to be true. I am grateful everyday for making the decision to serve a mission and come out here and serve these beautiful people, it will impact me for the rest of my life. through every trial there is a blessing. i love you my family and friends, i cannot wait to share my experiences and things i have learned with you when i return home :D Love you..

P.s Congratz to Elder Crichton who has officially returned home!! Love you bro
