Week 24 - Utensils in Thine Hands

Yesterday Sister Behling was praying, and she's pretty respectful and reverent in her prayers-because, you know, you're talking to God. We had been fasting in the 24 hour mission wide fast for Chuuk to receive 70 new Melchizedek Priesthood holders so they'd become a Stake. So we were pretty tired and a little out of it. In the prayer-which Sister Behling was taking very seriously as she should-she asked God to help us become better "utensils in thine hands". I just looked up at her, but she kept on praying. After a minute, she started laughing and just ended the prayer because she realized what she said. :D It was great.

This week was MUCH better! Holy cow, the work is easier when you realize YOU'RE not the reason everything is awful, it's actually someone else's fault *cough cough*Stake*cough*. So we were able to get some real good and fun work done! I was with Sister Milne in Kitti/Pehleng from Tuesday till Friday. Friday Behling came back and it's been great :) She went to MLC. Zone Conference is this week and Sister Behling and I get to be a part of the meeting with President Poston and the Stake President. hoowwee I'm stoked.

Our focus has shifted a little now to helping the members do the bare minimum (they figure out the rest) and then meeting and finding as many people as we can. From those people, we'll have God tell us which ones to teach so we don't waste our time teaching those who will not progress. And so we can find those who will be a strength to the branch.

Sister Nanpei is back!! That woman is Chuukese and the most sarcastic, tell it how it is, takes no crap kind of a woman :) I'm so happy she's here and not taking any crap from Branch President Route haha It's good for him ;)

Weather is warm. Yesterday stormed during testimony meeting. A big funeral in our area, so no one is home and everyone is at the iowanis house. Not good for teaching, but it's whatever. there's an 8 year old who wants to be baptized and she's come to church every week. Haha I thought she was a member! But she's not :) So we found her and talked to her mom. Turns out she was on date once upon a time too. We'll see how it all goes :)

I love you all!! Keep the faith!

Gun's are illegal here so I don't know what that is.
