Bula Vinaka! Sorry it has been a few weeks since I wrote for the blog! The biggest news these past few weeks has been being able to call home. It has been a great few weeks being able to call and talk to everyone! The past few weeks we have had three baptisms two a few weeks ago and one this week. They went well!
The most exciting thing that has happened to us this week has been this girl we have been teaching. Her father is a preacher for AoG and has been against us giving her the lessons. We stopped teaching her because of this, but she would run away to go to church and other functions that the church was holding. 
Then, this week we were going to an appointment and her dad stopped us on the road. He told us that his daughter has been asking over and over again to be baptized and that he respects her wishes. He is worried about her because she is not going to school and so he told us if we can get her to school then she can be baptized. She is so excited to be baptized and very willing to go to school now. 
I hope you all have a great week!

Bula Vinaka! Transfers are this week, but I probably won't leave, I would be surprised if we get a call. we have three sisters coming in, one of whom we have to accompany to her appointment with the US embassy to get her visa for another mission. So that will be interesting, and a lot of busy work. But I guess someone has to do it. we have gotten a lot of referrals one of which came to church yesterday and we set on date for baptism yesterday as well :) Loloma bibi, Sista Wayment

2 Months!

Bula Vinaka! This week has been a great week. We have extended a lot of baptismal invitations and we think a few of them might be baptized! We have been teaching an Indian family. The mom only speaks Hindi and the dad speaks limited English and Fijian. We have brought the Hindi elders over to help us to teach them, and they say they want to be baptized! They came to church yesterday. When they came a member of our bishopric was giving a talk in Fijian and occasionally was yelling. so I think they were a little scared. We are going to bring Hindi speaking members over to visit them this week so hopefully they will feel a little more comfortable. As the Christmas season is coming closer, I have been thinking about the Savior and what He has done for me. Of course we celebrate His birth on Christmas, but the greatest thing He has done for each of us is die in behalf of us. No matter where we are in life, what mistakes we have made, or how much we have been hurt, the Savior unders...
