Hey mom!
So I apologize but the internet is down at the church and we are doing a bbq at the senior couples for pday so i am getting a little time on the computer but not a lot! I usually try and let the outer islands do their email since they only get once a month ha but i usually have time, the internet is just down. Hopefully it will get fixed this week.
That is awesome you got to see Amanda's concert, i am excited to watch her perform cuz she sounds way good! That is INSANE that Corey is already going to be 8...haha I just remember a crazy 4 year old ha.
this week was good, we got some time to teach and we even took Pito out to teach with us, he had no hesitation to come with us! We just gotta help him to speak up and share his testimony a lot more. Sunday me and Elder Siren (his comp was sick and in Weno) went to Pata for church and we also stopped in Romalum and went to their sacrament because theirs was at 9 and patas was at 11. I ended up giving talks in both meetings haha. The Romalum branch is big, and during sacrament it was kinda noisy with all the kids, then I stood up and gave my talk and all of the sudden everyone just went super quiet and listened. It was pretty cool. I was getting some really nice comments about speaking Chuukese like a Chuukese so that was cool.
the story about the handycraft is in the olden days in chuuk, the men would carve their own "lovesticks" and the girl they liked and wantedto marry they would go at night and stick it in the hair of the girl and then if she accepted she would find the guy and go give it back to him then it means they were "married" so yeah, lots of handycrafts have that carved into it.
[Elder S sent us a carved wooden plaque depicting a woman lying down in a house and a man standing near her head. The above is an explanation of what it meant]
Well, I love you mom! I am also working out details to the day i come home so I will let you know! Love you!!
