Monday was cool, and calm. We didn't have a lot to do. It was a blessing when someone called and asked us if we wanted to do a family night with them. Yeah! The family that invited us had a family friend that had already followed the lessons and wanted to continue following them. The lesson was on prayer. And the Spirit was strong during that lesson.
Tuesday we saw Rachelle. We talked with her about her life and what is going on. She wants to get away from the lessons for a little while because Rosine, her mom, will be leaving for a while and it will be Rachelle in charge of all of the children. But she continues to accept us. We still hope her baptism will happen this year.
Wednesday we did a split with the young adults in our ward. I went to the other side of the island with a young named Teiho and Lara the ward missionary. When we started to go the rain started so hard. We didn't get half way to Hitia before we were soaked. It got to the point where the rain would touch me but I was sure I couldn't get anymore wet. We did the lesson with Naomi and Marco was there!! The lesson went well but the wedding and baptism is still unsure.
Thursday we didn't have a lot to do and so we went out looking for people to teach and while looking my companion did a wheelie and ripped his pants. Then we continued and stopped for a minute. While sitting there on our bikes, out of no where, my companion's seat breaks and he crashes to the ground. It was pretty mega. We came home with not a very big smile.
Friday I went in the sector of Anau. Elder Purau and I gave a blessing to someone who clamed to be possessed. It was scary when we heard that but while we were going there I felt strongly that things would be okay. She wasn't possessed but we gave her a blessing anyway and she was better after.
Saturday we had the baptism of Marii. One of the children of Rosine. It went well. The confirmation Sunday went well as well. And the good news is that we have most of our church back! Just a few rooms are still blocked off.
I know this church is true, God be with you 'til we meet again,
I love you all,
Elder Squires
