Crazy busy week

 Kaselehlie Maing Ko!


This week was super busy, crazy, fun, all of the above. Here's a just a few things that happened this week to save this email from being too long.

• Had zone conference (pretty epic)
• Gave a talk in sacrament (In Pohnpeian of course)
• Talked with some drunk people this week
• Helped cut some bushes for our friend
• Confirmed someone after baptism (Also in Pohnpeian) 

So, yea as you can see a lot happened this week. We also went finding with one of our recent converts and the first Lady we met was this old Seventh-day Adventist. Immediately she just wanted to bible bash with us, and we couldn't even have a normal conversation with her. I definitely lost some brain cells after that encounter. It's all good though cause she gave us some coconuts before we left so we stayed hydrated. 

Other than that, we got some good walking in this week, and we made sure to stay extra sweaty because of the heat. The weather in Pohnpei now is really starting to warm up so we've been getting way more exhausted from walking in the heat. 

Besides that, though, we have met some amazing people. We met this older guy just walking on the road and we stopped to talk with him. His name is Marino and we found out he is catholic, and he was a little confused about Joseph Smith. So, I immediately started to share a little about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon. I don't know how I was able to do this, the only explanation is the spirit helped me because I suck at teaching the restoration, especially in Pohnpeian. After that, we gave him a Pohnpeian BoM and he said he would read it. He also gave us coconuts after. People really like giving us coconuts for some reason. 

Anyway, that was just one of the many small miracles I experienced this week. I know that the Lord's hand is in my life every day and I know he is aware of you all as well. 

I poakpoake kumwail! Have a great week!
