Of new baptismal dates, poverty, family drama, Shopping Malls, and Luaus

Hello Whanau (Fah-now, i.e. Family) and friends!

New Zealand is fantastic! I love it. :-) I think that I could easily live here in New Zealand. The people are mean (awesome), and everyone is nice. Unless they live on Semple street in Huntly. Then, not so much. :-)

Of tradeoffs, L&P, solar eclipses, popcorn, and miracles. :-)

So, it has been a great week. So much has happened. It doesn't seem possible. So much stuff happening in just a single week! Oh! And I Got letters! So, it takes something close to 16 days from the time it posts to the time that It enters my hand. Or something like that. Just so you know. Also, so to get me something for Christmas, send it by the 2nd, to be safe. :-)

Malo i le lei! (or something like that. I don't know how to spell it. It's in Tongan)

Kia Ora! 

The time is really just shooting by! Good gracious! It's awesome over in in Aeoteroa!

Baptisms coming out of my ears! Kinda...

Hello everyone! 

It has been a great week. We have a baptism coming up on Tuesday for an older lady named Nani. She is basically, I think the term is, a dry Mormon. She believed it basically from day one. She has been living with her either daughter or niece, I'm not sure. She is originally from the Cook Islands, which, as it turns out, has a different language from the Maori's. It's similar, but different. Kia Oratu as apposed to Kia Ora. Or something like that. Anyways, she has been a super golden investigator from day one, supposedly. Well, It will be really good that she gets baptized.
