Week 77 - YAP (plus a little more)

This week I'm on the beautiful island of yap and only have 5 minutes to email because the library closes in 30 minutes and 6 other missionaries have to email and there are two computers and the churches wifi hasn't been paid for. wooo

Yap is cool, the sisters have taught me a lot. Definitely a little weirded out by some of the new missionaries from the states because wow they are super american. But it's good to see the island culture that I missed while I was on Guam.

Wednesday I'll be on guam for a few hours then fly out to Palau. I'll join them for Zone Conference :) I hope you all had a good week! Don't get too trunky for me, by the time I'm home you'll wish I was gone again, so enjoy it while it lasts!! I'm trying super hard to just have the holy ghost with me often. But it's a daily battle :)

Love ya!

PART TWO - SURPRISE!

I'm back on! All the missionaries on Yap didn't get to email last week because Wifi was down too. So a couple hours ago the elders found this old computer repair shop that will let us come and use their wifi and the computers they're fixing for just a dollar. So, here I am :) I'm staying with Sister Cook and Sister Dalton and Sister Komeri. Cali, Colorado, and Kiribati. Fun times :)

It's super good and we really enjoy it. Sister Cook is brand spankin new (8 weeks in the mission) and is still adjusting. Her mom got to meet and shake hands with the prophet and then stand next to him and shake hands with everyone else because of fires that happened in California. I'm super stoked to come back home and just study everything that man does. I want to learn all the languages.

I've had cool experiences doing language study and randomly learning the exact word that someone needed to hear that day. So even though I don't speak the language of the people the sisters i'm with are teaching, I use the gift of tongues and am able to help the people none the less. It's super awesome and the people on Yap are so unique. The sisters are killin it out here :)

Missionaries on Yap
This work is so good and also so stinkin hard. It's like, insane. We just go and do. And when we go and do as fast as we can then there's not much time to feel down or unloved :) It's great! But when things slow down, that's when things get confusing. But working on Yap has been so fun and I've learned so much from each of the sisters here. It's amazing. Good week, good memories. I'm sure I'm not telling you enough but hey, this is better than a 5 minute email! plus pictures :) I promise I've been taking a ton of random pictures. So ya :)
