Finding at the King's house

Iakwe!

First of all I want to say Happy New Year to everyone and a special shout out to my boy Elder Templeton! Happy birthday!

Wednesday was a pretty good day. We had district council and then me and Elder Wright did tons of finding. Not much happened just a day of hard work.

Thursday was another pretty good day. We had a great lesson with Ali. She told us that she really wanted to get baptized and that she was ready so things are looking good. 

Friday was a crazy day. We had 3 solid lessons. We also did a ton of finding. We were out finding and I had this impression to go talk to this guy. I went up to him and started to casually talk. Then out of nowhere I asked him if he knew Junior. He said he did but he was at work. He told us to come back later because Junior wanted to study. I was so pumped. Well then we went back at 6 and he said Junior hadn't come back yet. It was rough but we will just keep trying. Also on Friday Elder Thomson cut my hair haha. I'll send some pics.

Saturday was a crazy day. Elder Thomson and Vaaia were supposed to go to Kwaj at 5 in the morning because they are headed back to Majuro because the outer islands are opening back up. So we all wake up at 4:30 to go see them off. Well as soon as we woke up we got a text from the Ap's saying that their flight didn't leave until 2:30. So we all just went back to sleep haha. We dropped them off at the dock later that day and now they are back in Majuro. Man I'm going to miss them. Later that day Elder Lal and Jepsen said that they talked to a guy who said he wanted to talk to the Elder's. His name is John Kabua. Well Kabua is a pretty big name here in the Marshall islands. It is basically the royal family. So we went to the Irooj (King) house and asked for John. Well turns out he didn't live there but they told us where he did live. We still haven't talked to him but now I can say I have gone finding at the Kabua's house haha. We had another lesson with Ali and told her that she had to come to church if she wanted to be baptized. 

Sunday morning we got up and went to remind Ali about church but she was asleep. She didn't show up so that was super disappointing. We will just keep trying. 

Yesterday was a weird day. Not much happened we went finding and had no success. It was a members birthday so we went to a birthday party and ate some octopus, chicken, and beef. It was pretty good. 

Overall this week was a good one! I hope you all are doing great at home, or wherever you are. I love you all! Feel free to email me whenever!
