The flyest in Paies

 Kaselehlie Maing Ko! 


This week was a good week! We had lots of success with our friends and members here. Many really good lessons and people who are progressing well and seem to have genuine interest. We also have a baptism coming up this Saturday so that's really great also!

We did exchanges with the zone leaders this week and I got to go to Uh, which used to be my area way back in the day. It was really fun to see the area and a few of the people that I knew there. I say a few because a lot of the teaching pool has changed since then. Still an awesome time nonetheless!

As for this upcoming week, we've got some more exchanges planned and of course the baptism. That's basically a short recap of what's been happenin' here in the isle of Pohnpei! Love y'all and stay blessed!

A whimsical week

 Kaselehlie Maing Ko! 


We had a splendid week I might say. We found some really cool people this week, part of them being a really cool family. The dad reached out to missionaries through Facebook and so the other elders made a time to meet but they realized he didn't live in their area, so they referred him to us. However, before we learned this, we had already found them and had a first lesson. It was cool to see how the Lord led us to them before we even knew about that. They are cool and definitely have a lot of potential.

We also had zone conference, and I gave my departing testimony. Very weird giving my departing testimony when I still have so much time left haha. Besides that, though the area is pretty good. We had almost 100 people at church thanks to the members and their ministering efforts. It has really helped the ward a lot. 

Anyways that's all for now. Hope everyone has a great week. I poakpoake kumwail oh doadoahk wet! Kauno en ieiang kumwail ansou koaros!

First week in Paies

 Kaselehlie maing ko!


It's officially been my first week in Paies and so far so good. The area is a bit slower progression wise but there are some really cool people. The ward also struggles a bit but from what I have seen the members are taking more initiative little by little so that's good to see.

As you know we had general conference this past week and our ward gathered to listen to the talks. It was an awesome experience as always and I invite you all to watch or listen to it sometime if you didn't get the opportunity.

This upcoming week is our zone conference and it will be my last zone conference as a missionary. It's crazy how fast time has gone and I am definitely going to miss these meetings we have as missionaries.

That's about it for me and this week. Hope everyone is doing well and thinking celestial! Love y'all a ton!

Kicked out

 Kaselehlie Maing Ko! 


This week we were in a trio until transfer calls. It was busy having 2 areas but it was really fun. I am getting kicked out or transferred from kitti. I am going to the area where we were in the trio. It's called Paies and I'm with Elder Tangi's last comp Elder Garner. I'm officially dying in Pohnpei so I'm grateful for that. 

Other than transfers and having to work in a trio that was about it for the week. This upcoming Saturday and Sunday the wards are going to watch general conference together so that'll be awesome. I am super excited to continue working hard this transfer and help the people of this Island grow closer to Jesus Christ!
