Weekly 🤙


Also fun fact real quick 🤙 this doesn't mean hang loose that's just an American apparently according to all my new Poly friends it's called shacka and I don't thing it means anything its just what all the cool kids do so 🤷️ anyway good morning whanau how are you!? Sorry I didn't send a weekly last week. But these past couple weeks have been really good a little crazy actually. 

So to start Sangeta got baptized wow that was amazing I love her so much she has such a strong desire to draw nearer to her Savior and is really excited to continue down the covenant path she's great. Well her fiance's cousin came to the baptism and he must have felt the spirit very strong because he cried though the whole thing and told his uncle he wants to learn more so we started to teach him! He's so so cool and just really wants to be happy and feel that peace he felt at her baptism again. The only problem is that he only speaks Tongan and well in case you didn't realize I only speak English so we had to have a translator, but it's okay because I'm just grateful he's so patient with us and still wants to continue to take the lessons. 

Last week sister Graham got attacked by a dog but she's good now. Moving on transfer news came both me and sister Graham stayed in Red Hill yay! But one of our bffs elder Demille ditched us to be the the assistant to the president. Rude. But really though I'm so excited for him that just shows how awesome of an elder is. He gave us literally so many referrals... Definitely going to miss him. But it's good we got to keep his companion Elder Moucatel who's super cool he's only on his fourth transfer and he's already been zone leader twice so basically he's gonna be an apostle one day. Love them anyway so BREAKING NEWS....... We got elders in red Hill... That's right you read that right they are making us share Red Hill and its rude. Nah but really Elder Strate and elder Berry are super cool. Elder Berry is fresh out if the mtc and is Canadian so I just want to make fun of him so bad but I'm a missionary and have to be nice but wow some seriously self restraint has been experienced. 

Anyway it's been really good okay actually so story time first time I met them I no joke thought they were about to mug us 😂. So picture this two young cool sister missionaries walking down the sketchy streets of Hunua NZ it was like 8. So the sun was down and out of the corner of my eyes I see two guys following us (so in the white handbook it says to always keep a small amount of cash on you in case you get mugged but I had definitely just spent my mugging money on cool temporary tattoos (for post mish obviously) like three days before so I started panicking) so there I was trying to save my companion from the creepy guys following so so I turn around and start shouting.  I was, I kid you not this is what I said... So embarrassing, "Okay so look I'm a missionary, I really don't have any money but like I have this watch if you want it, but I've definitely broken it twice already but if you duck tape the battery in place it's as good As...Oh..." so they were kind of far away, close enough you can tell there is someone following you but far enough away and dark enough that you couldn't tell who they are so I was like really out trying to bribe these potential muggers with my cheap watch and turns out it was our new elders they laughed really hard it was rude anyway that's how I met my double covers and I just looked at the time and my pday is over so much love be good - sister berrett
