Hey, not a lot of time this week AGAIN!! Smh, but it's ok, because not too much happened anyway.
This week was Ward Conference for Ward Pangai Motu. Ward
Conferences here are a much bigger deal than in the states. There was something
going on almost everyday of the week and then after the actual conference they
throw this huge kai pola (feast) were tons of non members came just to eat
our food. The lady sitting across from us jacked a whole basket of snacks
that they put on the tables smh.
Pangai Motu is cool cuz we see a lot of white people. Most
of them are just crazy people from Australia but fun to talk to.
I realized this week that I have some pretty FOB English
right now
I met this guy who is the Sculpting professor at BYUH and
was born and raised here in Pangai. He is also a Tonga church history expert so
we talked about my ancestor who served in Tonga. And his brother told me
stories about Heber J Grant. All the old people get excited when they here
my name and ask if I'm related to "Hipa J Kalanite"
We found 6 baby Molokaus (basically the most dangerous thing
in Tonga) in our MQ one night.....
and our best friend here is this 50 yr old who is
excommunicated but loves talking to the missionaries.
Sorry not so much time today but SHOUT OUT TO MY BROTHER ON
THE NEW MARSHALLESE BABY. I'm going to teach him Tongan which isn't his language but he's
gonna have to know some Polynesian ways!!
Love You AAALLLLLL!!!
