What's going on everybody!
Pro Tip: When walking in the project's make sure to dress like a missionary because everyone respects you haha.
Here's the update of "quarantine" status:
We are no longer consider quarantined anymore which is super nice. Things are pretty opened up for us right now. We are allowed to do everything in person right now except eat with people still (soon to change). We are allowed to knock on people's doors but only if the persons door we are knocking has been taught previously by missionaries. But hey we get outside a whole lot which I'm happy about.
We finally got some in person exchanges going on again and wow they are nice. On Saturday my Tongan brotha Elder Olevao came up from Jersey to do a little exchange with us and it was super nice having a Poly comp again, it made it feel like I was back in the island's. Even though it was only a day, we sure made the most of it and went to work.
We are teaching a lot of super sweet people right now and they all are progressing pretty well. We are finally starting to see the results of the work we have out in because the area is starting to pick up pace which is super nice because when I got here the area was pretty slow. But that's not anything a little work can't change.
There is a talk given by Elder Uchtdorf from October 2012 called, "Of Regrets and Resolutions." I encourage you all to go and read it but I just wanted to share a part of it with y'all,
"One day we will take that unavoidable step and cross from this mortal sphere into the next estate. One day we will look back at our lives and wonder if we could have been better, made better decisions, or used our time more wisely.
We definitely have all already looked back from where we are right now and have thought of things we could have done better, or things we did great. He invites us to take for advantage of every single day so we will not miss an opportunity that will never come back. But go and read it because he tells it much better than me!
I hope you all have a great week and remember to keep on Smiling!
