The key to the church house is a blessing to us, especially when our Internet is not working, which has been the case often lately. We can use the computers at the Family History Center. Also, the church is a good place to meet and teach.
This Sunday we went to Sacrament Meeting in Naduna. That’s the little chapel with just a floor and a roof up on a hill with a beautiful view. Everything was in Fijian so we only knew a few words they were saying, but it was as if we were in the tops of the mountains. We could feel the Spirit. The weather was perfect, and a sweet breeze kissed my cheek.
As we drove away, Rex said, “Everything in the universe screams out that there is a creator.” My thoughts exactly.
We drove straight to Seaqaqa for Sacrament Meeting there. The church felt so much happier being clean from the Service Project last week. The Elder’s Quorum President still is carrying the branch there while President Petero is in Australia. He had not assigned talks, but asked ten of us if would bear our testimonies. He also bore his testimony. The Spirit was strong. I love meetings when they do that. It strengthens my testimony. I am ever grateful to be a member of the only true church.
In the evening, we drove the Elders to Siberia. Then met the Sisters at President Nasova's home. We loved our visit with President Nasova. He is a past branch president who was released when his wife died. He never remarried, and he quit coming to church. Every set of missionaries who passes through here tries their hand with him, but to no avail. He really enjoys Sister Aumua and Sister Fiu. Maybe this time.
We drove the Sisters to Siberia to the Salaboni home and waited in the truck while they taught their lesson. We plotted and planned the activities of the next week while we waited. It was a good day.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all,
Take care!

Love you!
