 4/10/2016

Hey! Its been q while since I've grouped its difficult to find internet here that allows it oddly enough. I have been called back to abaiang and going on 8 months here it is good way slow when I first white washed it but now it is going smooth. We have found some solid people with the help of the lord who are progressing nicely and some have received their testimonies this week. Baptisms are close. It has been rainy rainy rainy. Sunday got rained out but I was blessed to see the faith of a led active member walk 20 minutes to church under the rain. I was overwhelmed with the spirit. I am now working with my fourth and real companion elder graham I had 2 visa waiters before him. I know the work will progress.
This week my testimony has grown immensely I know that Jesus is the Christ. Two years ago I could say it and now I can feel it. He is the light and path to our father. I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ and proclaim it boldly to everyone. I know that someone has walked this way before. He loves me He loves you. In the name of Jesus Christ amen.

P-day on the Beach


This week was rough we experienced some regression in some super awesome people but are continuing to pray hard for them and continue on with high hopes for good things to come. It all made it worth it to see some less active members come back and prepare a little bit more for the priesthood on Sunday. My favorite though was hearing an elderly woman in the farthest north city, about an hour or so bike ride, tell us about her morning of how they weren't going to come to church because it is a far walk for her and since there are are three families there her included her granddaughter who is maybe 5 told her boldly that they should go to church because she was sure that elders would be there to do it and said how Satan wants people to not go to church. It was cute and funny but she said her granddaughter surprised her that morning and gave her the drive to keep pressing forward she did just the same for me. I am so grateful to serve among such great examples and members. Even though it's sometimes rough I remember elder Holland's words that it's because salvation isn't easy. It never was and it neither will it be. If it was never easy for Him how could it or should it be for us. But oh how worth it it will be. In the name of Jesus Christ amen. Love elder Scot
