Blessings Come From Walking!

Hey Everyone,

Sorry, I couldn't email yesterday. We were with the zone leaders all day and meetings!

So, let's see,  my mission is steadily moving forward, and as usual a little too fast for me.  But, it can't slow down! Its hard to believe I've been in Fatumu for the last 4 months!  To be completely honest,  never once have I wished I was in another area.  I love it here and could definitely stay here for the rest of my mission!

As for new news,  Elder Tafea and I have been working hard out here! Both of our wards have doubled in attendance!! It has been so cool to see the growth we have had from when we had just gotten here until now! We have 2 investigators now and both girls Alilia and Saune! They are both 16 years old and they will be getting baptized this week on Saturday,  actually! Tafea will be performing both of the ordinances! I'm super stoked! It's been a while for this ward to have had a baptism, too! About a year!! And, we will be having two in one week! Work here has definitely progressed since we started! Honestly,  its probably because of all the walking we have done! haha That walk in between Lavengatonga and Fatumu is not fun and most of the time with very little shade.... blessings come from walking, I am living proof of that!


Mom,  I thought I got your package yesterday but,  I got one from Grandma Sheppard out of nowhere.  Oh, and it was perfect to because we were trying these new chicken subs and there were 2 boxes of chicken in a biscuit in it and I was wishing for crackers. Heavenly Father does answer prayers!! haha

Other than that work has been just moving along we are still working a ton with the mamalohis and they are slowly but steadily showing back up to church!!! I always feel so incredibly grateful for the opportunity I have received to work here! I have never wished once I could be any where else and I have never met a more loving people than here!!

Ofa lahi atu!!!

Elder Sepeti!
