Bula Vinaka from Sister Wayment

Bula Vinaka! Our area is doing really good. We have seen a lot of miracles in it. One of which was this lady that sister 'Aliki and I found a few weeks ago. We shared BOM as an OYM, and when we went back for a return appointment, she had had a baby so we hadn't been back for a while. I decided we should check her this week again to see if she was back. She was and she said she had been waiting for us to come back because she really liked the BOM and had read up to 2 Nephi already. Yesterday we had the opportunity to share the Plan of Salvation with her. We asked her what her thoughts were and she said that it made her happy learning about it and that she wants to go to the Celestial Kingdom with her whole family. She asked us if that was possible because her current church teaches that you will not recognize or know your family members after you die. We assured her that she could.

Bula Vinaka! this week it has been hot, hot, and hot! It seems like at the end of every transfer the work slowly diminishes and then picks up again, no matter how hard we try.

The entire night I had a stomach ache and the whole of Friday. with a back ache too. But it is all better now. Transfer calls are tomorrow, and we are looking forward to them :) Loloma Bibi, Sista Wayment

Bula Vinaka! We had our baptism this week! Iva and Elenoa got baptized!!!! The ward was so supportive and about half the chapel was filled. The baptisms went so well and the young women invited them both to sing in a musical number in Sacrament meeting after.  Transfers are next week, because this transfer is 7 weeks long. They would normally be this coming Wednesday. So we will know what is happening in a little over a week. This transfer has literally flown by. Sister 'Aliki and I keep talking about how fast it has gone.  Today I am starting my self reliance/after the mission classes. We do them online so I am excited for that. Loloma Bibi, Sista Wayment
