selfie at the temple, with my sister companion from SLC
sister collins
and sister irish from lehi who left last wednsday
Sunday.
Elder
Mereki came in my room just before I went to sleep and hugged me goodnight and said "mahal kita." (I love you) it
literally made my week because he is such a loving guy, seriously like
so great. All the kiribatis are very affectionate people. They bear their testimonies and they are
fantastic. Holy crap, they will be better missionaries than me
because I think they love this gospel even more than I do (which is saying
alot)
Monday
Monday
I asked elder Katutu to tell me some
sentences in kiribati so I can say them to the new kids arriving on
wednsday so he gave me a list. which was a lie, it was all
insults....for example - ko bureti (good morning) but ko bureti actually means dog face..... lolol so freaking funny
Tuesday
nothing
much just class and such. That night though we took all of our mattresses off our beds and put them on the floor had a slumber party in a
room with our entire zone. I slept next to elder baabo and Katutu,
Elder baabo took my blanket during the night so I couldn't sleep at all. and then both of them cuddled with me and it was soooo funny. I know that's
probably not mission approved but....what can you do!
Wednesday
Was a big day. We
said goodbye our old zone, then said hello to the new one, I'm super
excited to get to know the new guys but I'm
also sad to see my friends go. This week was also my moms birthday, It made me
kind of homesick because I remembered how much she loves me. like for
her birthday one year she pulled me out of school so we could go see the premier of
the first iron man together. I love my mom.
Also here is a spiritual message.
The other day I read a paper from my stake president about the 4 different types of missionaries
1st. Disobedient, this missionary ends up going home because he either gets
sent home, or because he can't hack it and he is
unfruitful.
2. serves his full mission even though he is just as disobedient as the first
but he lies. ( I HATE LIARS) wastes his whole mission and effort, and the work he does goes undone.
3.
serves a full mission and is obedient but he hates his mission and cant wait for it to be over. the work he has done is good and
fruitful, he serves a full mission but wastes all that time being miserable because he hasn't changed at all as a person.
4. the
fourth missionary serves his full mission and gives his all to
the lord. he gets the most out of it because he serves with purpose and love and
it changes him and he is blessed.
The fourth missionary is my goal!
I
need your help with the new missionaries. they come from a place with
little to no money and no communication from their family so I need your help to make
them feel loved. I need you to send some letters or packages to them.
Sister Neeti
Sister tenneba
Sister ioteeba
Sister meritio
Elder terawa
Elder tumera
Elder bioti
just
send their letters to my box, GET ANYONE YOU CAN TO DO IT SO THEY CAN FEEL THE LOVE!
They also get cold at night, so if you can send them some blankets that would be great! They will appreciate
it so much!
I'm getting a little tired of the MTC I want to be done and get to the Philippines so bad, We get to go to the Manilla mtc and I am so stoked, We will also get to go
through the Manilla temple.
I saw joey he was telling me about everyone in the family, I couldn't host him because now I am the zone leader I
was seeing the old zone off and welcoming the new zone, I was in charge of everyone.
I love you all. see you next week. Tell my
sisters I love them and they are dope at soccer, also Happy birthday.
