Hello from Fiji October 29, 2017

Hey sorry it's been 3 weeks! I bet most of you didn't even notice though until now! 

Things have been crazy here! In a really good way though, well mostly! 

Elder Hariprasad finished and went back to India! I miss him lots but I'm just thankful I got to be with him for a transfer! 

As of two weeks ago I am with Elder Shin from West Jordan! He is the man! He has only been in Fiji now for a week and a half but he is killing it! We have had tons of fun together already and have seen lots of success! 

Raj's baptism was on Saturday and so that was really awesome! He is 9 years old and just a stellar kid! He lives near the chapel and is already super involved in primary and so it's been a good transition! 

Also we saw another miracle this past week! Kala the aunti who cannot walk showed her faith and came to church by being carried on a chair. It was so powerful! Well exactly 2 days after that act of faith we stopped by a recent converts house and he told us he had received a wheelchair for Kala!!! Like it was so random and an absolute miracle! I believe that it was only possible because Kala showed so much faith just 2 days before. We have been looking for a wheelchair for her for 4 months now and I know it wasn't a coincidence that it was right after the act of faith! Her baptism is coming up in 2 short weeks! It has been a long time coming but will be so worth it!

One heartbreak was with Domonik. He is a boy from Kiribati who is staying here in Suva. Well we heard news from Christmas Island that his family would not support him in the baptism and so for now we are going to have to wait until the Lord provides another way! 

Just yesterday we showed up to our Suva 1st ward and you won't believe who was there!! Well it was the whole Pacific Area Presidency(President O. Vincent Haleck, Elder Ian S. Ardern, and Elder Craig A. Cardon) AND every single Mission President and their wives from the whole pacific!! 17 of them! So that was a little crazy, but also really, really cool! I'm just glad we were there early!! Not everyday that you have 3 General Authorities and the 17 Mission Presidents in your sacrament meeting! 

Saturday night was one of the best finding nights of my mission so far. We found 10 new investigators from 5 different houses in just 2 hours!! I think that's got to be a new record for the hindi program in Fiji! 

Things are really good! Elder Shin is the man! He's already picked up some hindi it's awesome! We are working hard and just living it up! Love you all! Sorry it's been a long time!! 

I know there has been heaps more that has happened I just can't write it all right now! 

Isa Hum aaplog se pyar karta hei. Ii zinagi bohut acha hei. Hum kushi lage jaab hum cam kare bhagvan ke liye. BYE!
