10/12/14 Unwelcomed Visitor?


Malo e lelei famili ofeina!

Ko e uike ko eni na'e kei tuai pe I he tafa'aki a e ngaue fklaumalie, ka na ma tokoni'i ki he teuteu mo fkmaau api na'e ai a ema kaungaapi koe'uhi na'e foki mai ha Sisita mei he'ene ngaue fkfaifekau. haha my Tongan is coming along!

So this week we didn’t have much work with investigators but we helped our next door neighbors set stuff up and cook food because their daughter was coming back from her mission. There was so much food there! haha They had a fireside for her last night because she couldn’t speak in church since it was conference week here. Yesterday and Saturday we watched Conference, in Tongan, which sucked cuz I could understand it, but couldn’t write any real notes cuz I had to focus just on what they were saying so if I tried to write something down I would miss stuff... Can you send me the November Liahona in English when it comes out? That way I can read it cuz it is the Conference issue!

Last night was kinda creepy! So our door is a bolt lock, not like a normal door knob. We got back from the fireside and take off the lock then undo the bolt and the door still won’t open!!! We go around to the window and shine the flashlight in and it was bolted and secured from the inside..... There is NO possible way that anyone can get in the house without us seeing where they broke in! Freaking creepy!! We had to call the zone leaders and they came over and we broke the windows off with a crowbar and a kid climbed in and opened it for us. it freaked me out cuz there honestly is NO way that anyone could lock our door from the inside, yet it was.... haha I prayed hard last night I guess you could say… kinda spooked!  The windows here are louvers, I don’t know how to explain but they are easy to take out and put back in, but the screen is locked into the window frame with a board and nails so we had to pry that off and rip the screen off but its fine not a big problem haha..... But ya that’s our week.  Still slow workwise.... but hopefully it will get better!

Ofa lahi atu kiate kimoutolu!!!

Oh ya and our water was dead 5 out of the 7 days this week.... now shower feels awesome haha.

That’s how this village is! it’s dead right now.

So there was a sister who just came home from her mission and the
family was making these Kahoa Lole, candy necklaces, that
Tongans do for every celebration and it makes me jealous!
She has over 20 of them which is typical haha!
