Talofa

Talofa is tongan for hello..
Sounds like things are going pretty well there..
We had our wedding and baptism on the 29th. It was really neat. Kukama baptized her and gave a talk at her wedding. I got to say the prayer at the end of the baptism. All the investigators we invited forgot that it was all on Saturday, they thought it was on Sunday. He confirmed her yesterday too.
Something else that is pretty exciting, we set 3 people with dates to be baptized! Eliza (15 year old girl) her brother Keith (11) and her sister Michelle (10). They've been going to church for like 2 years and have listened to discussions and everything. Eliza actually gave a talk yesterday in sacrament. She had to ask Bishop Fitisemanu if it was ok if a non member gave a talk in sac. meeting. And when she did that we all found out she wasn't a member. She's an amazing girl who knows all of what she is supposed to know and more before baptism. And she does a great job of keeping her siblings involved and they are all ready. That'll happen on the 19th!
