Elder Connor Grant's Adventures in Tonga: WEEK 59 IN TONGA, FALAHA

Kuo Mate ae Kuma ae Setane

WELL HELLO!

So my last couple of weeks were FULL of vilo hoas(exchanges) with other companionships in the Zone. First one was with Elder Tilini (came in with him) and he was deathly sick (thought he had Typhoid) so we spent that whole exchange at the hospital and in home (hes all goods now though)

On another one we had, I was walking to our house with a new missionary I was going on splits with and jokingly I ask him if he is allergic to Bees, cause there are TONS living right outside our wall (you can put your ear up to the wall and its so loud the wall is almost vibrating from all the buzzing) and earlier that day a bunch found there way inside our bedroom. Turns out hes deathly allergic to bees and would be outies within 10 minutes if he got stung. So that was a no go. We turned around and decided to stay in his area for the day.

Besides that, we are now toko4 (4 of us) living at our house. So now we have just 2 wards to cover and not 3 which will be a big help. Work is moving along slowly but surely! We have started a new program with our bishop that involves combining our visits to members with home teaching. We are happy to help them out in anyway! :)

We are still working with that girl that I mentioned who's mom was a Princess (royalty😱) and also the first member of the royal family. Pretty cool! She is reading the Book of Mormon and we sure hope and pray that we will be able to help her learn of its truths.

Besides that I can't really think about what else has gone down! Love this area! Me and Satuala get along way good and I love learning from him.

Random fact about our ward: the Second Councilor in the Bishopric is a Chinesse man named Sky who is the man and cant speak English but has some pretty dang good Tongan and was only baptized like 4 years ago.
