Dear Family and
Friends,
I don't have too much time to email this week! We are
currently up in Wangaratta emailing and having lunch with the members up here!
But to let you all know, I am getting a new companion! Elder Kelsch finishes
his mission on Tuesday and will be flying home Wednesday! My new companion will
be Elder Swensen! I am staying in Greenvale and I am so excited! The work is
going really well in our area and all of our investigators are doing well! We
had a lot of great lessons this week with the Wharemate family, Liam and
others! They are doing so well and are excited for their baptisms in the next
coming weeks and month!
On Friday we had a ward activity and it was a lot of fun! It
was a cultural night and the seminary students in our ward hosted it! They
cooked all traditional Samoan food and did a lot of traditional island dances
and hakas! Elder Kelsch and I got permission to wear traditional Ie faitagas.
They are a male islander skirt that they wear to church and other fancy
parties! I will include a lot of pictures from this week because I don't have a
lot of time to email!
I love you all
and hope that you have a great week!

| Me and Elder Kelsch in our Ia faitagas! We look pretty good and we really gained the ward's trust! That was the reason why we wanted to wear them! |
