Sorry I didn't email for the last 2 weeks, the week before the phone we were using ran out of data and last week we had a service day all day.
Anyways, it's been a good 2 weeks. 2 Mondays ago we had one of our investigators married in Tabontebike (end of the beach), Kiraua and nei Meeriin (our investigator). It was a good marraige, and the week after on Saturday she was baptized. Meeriin was actually a KPC minister back in the day which came as a surprise to me for how well she accepted the restored Gospel.
We also had Easter, definitely felt more obliged than usual to bear witness of the Savior at all times, all places and all things. The Tuarabu branch hired a truck and had church at the Borotiam unit maneaba on Easter Sunday so that was fun.
So I have sad news... I'm getting transfered D: so apparently it's not for a while but the APS called me on Tuesday to tell me I was coming in, which we already knew as stake conference is coming up. I asked them if I was coming back to Abaiang and they said no, so I assumed that when I come in for conference I would just stay in Tarawa. So I let members know and they started preparing a going away party, however, zone leaders gave us more info this morning and its true that I'm transferring but not for a while and I will return to Abaiang after conference, so that's awkward. Anyways, I'll be transferring to Betio and will be working with an Elder Taylor.
Kind of disapointed that I'll be back in Tarawa, was really hoping I would stay longer on an outer island, whether it is Abaiang or another island. But it's all good, I already know the Betio 3rd ward a little from my time as zone leader, it's a fun ward.
