Proselyting in CNMI

 Hafa Adai & Kaselehlie everyone!


This week was very fun. We had a lot more success finding people this week so that was a nice improvement. We also went on exchanges this week and I got to go to another area.

Sunday was cool too because I got to give a short "surprise" talk and introduce or more likely reintroduce myself to the Saipan ward. We also met some more Pohnpeian members in the ward and I got to speak some Pohnpeian with them so that was nice.

As for this upcoming week we are really focusing on strengthening the new members and helping them progress on the covenant path. We also have zone conference this Saturday and we are giving a training so we'll see how it goes haha.

That's all I got for this week, I poakpoake kumwail koaros and I hope you have a great week!

Saipan Chapter 2

 Kaselehlie, Hello po, Hafa Adai, Anyounghasehyo...

So, I apologize for not sending an email last week therefore this email will be longer, mainly because I'm covering 2 weeks now. So, Saipan is pretty cool not gonna lie. Ots got Palm trees, blue ocean, local chamorro people who say wack things. All the amenities of paradise. Nah but for real Saipan is lit. Still miss Pohnpei and its people and the language but the people here are just as awesome. The ward here is really strong so that's always nice to see.

As for our area it's a lot bigger than my last and I'd say it's the most touristy part of Saipan. I've realized it's like the Beverly hills of Saipan. Some massive houses here guys. We have some really strong recent converts, and they are just spiritual boulders just rolling and rolling. People keep asking me how long I have been on my mission, and I don't like it because it reminds me of how fast time is moving. It's all good though cause we going hard these last few transfers. 

That's pretty much everything summed up from the past 2 weeks. Hope everyone has a great week and happy father's day!

Back to where it all began

 Kaselehlie maing ko oh pil kaselel Pohnpei!


That's right. We had transfers and I'm going back to Saipan. It's a crazy feeling for sure. I'm definitely gonna miss Pohnpei because I don't know if I'll come back. Besides that I'm excited for the new challenges and adventures to come. 

My new companion is a Korean so that's gonna be fun. Can't wait to learn some swear words...I mean gospel words in Korean haha. This last week for missionary work was pretty good. I had a weird feeling that I was leaving Pohnpei. It is OK though because wherever I go is in the Lord's hands not mine.

I'm excited to grind these last few transfers of my mission. Poakpoake kumwail douluhl oh Kauno en ketin ieiang kumwail ansou koaros!
