Conference, Conference and A Split - October 6, 2014

Ia Ora Na Outou, Eaha ta outou huru?

This week has been interesting.

On Monday we had our FHE cancelled so we went home and enjoyed our meal that a member dropped off. The food sounded so good. Sashami. One of my favorite dishes. The thing was that this time the sashami was store bought and tasted old and not wanting to risk getting sick again my companion and I didn't end up eating it.

Tuesday morning we had to wake up early to get to the doctor by 8 in the morning. The mission nurse, Sister Warner, picked us up and took us in town to see my best friend, the doctor. He prescribed me some new medications after the crazy allergic reaction that I was having with the last ones and so far nothing crazy has happened.

Wednesday we did a zone conference. This is the first time that I have had a zone conference where it was only my zone that was there. Normally we have done multi-zone conferences. So this was a nice change and to top it off we did it at the mission home. I'll send a picture. I really liked it because it felt....how do I say it....civil. I think that's the best word. I'll show pictures. Anyway, the zone conference went well. We talked about a lot of things. But one of my favorite was about taking our calls and taking them to heart. Also, that night we ate McDonalds that our Bishop dropped off.

Thursday went well. We did all of our lessons and we got to eat with a family of new converts that had fallen inactive and have started coming back.

Friday we did a split with our zone leaders. That makes the second time in my mission that I have done that. It was good. I went with Elder Bagley. It reminded me of Bora. Oh the good ol' days. Ah. And. My companion and Elder Lee Chip Sao fixed Simone's baptism. We think she just needed a Tahitian to teach her and it worked! But we'll see what happens.

Saturday and Sunday we watched conference. It was so wonderful. I am currently downloading them so that I can listen to them again. This was probably the first time that I haven't fallen asleep during a single session of conference. I was proud of myself.

That's pretty much all family. Love you!!

This is typical tahitian house. It's very 2nd world our here. We have a mix of first and third world all over the place so being in the mission home was nice to be in a first world place again.

McFamily meal. It's big!
