Baptism, Conference, Raiatea! - May 19, 2014

Hey everyone!

This week was an interesting week. On Thursday we had the opportunity to go to Raiatea, which is an island not too far from Bora, for our zone conference, even if it's not our zone. So, we took the plane early in the morning on Thursday and after 10 or so minutes on the plane we landed and I officially left Bora for the first time in 3 months. This is the longest place I have stayed since I moved out for college. I have been in Bora for over 4 and a half months which beats my old record for living in the same spot for 4 months during fall semester of college. The conference went really well. It was our last zone conference with President Sinjoux. He really stressed reaching our potential and I really enjoyed that message.

Then Saturday we had stake conference with Elder Pearson. It was so powerful. I learned a lot and I feel so blessed to have been here to watch it and feel the Spirit of what he taught.

Then on Saturday after the conference President Sinjoux said goodbye to us here in Bora for the maybe the last time. And then we had a baptism that went pretty well. Good news!! Naomi fixed her baptismal date and she said I will be baptizing her!! Yay!!! What a blessing, relief, good thing. I am so happy.

Family, I love you, friends I love you as well. Keep living life and doing your best. I will do the same.

Love,

Elder Squires
