Week 2 - Pray for some "fakalakalaka"

Hey everyone!

I've been here at the Missionary Training Center for just over two weeks. It doesn't feel like I have been here that long, and it’s weird to think that I'm almost halfway done with the MTC and then I'm off to Tonga.

The language is slowly coming along, and I'm just a little stressed right now because my companion and I have to teach a random person from BYU (they're a member of the church) a lesson in Tongan for 20 minutes. Take into notice that I've only been here for 2 weeks and I'm expected to teach a lesson about Jesus. Wish me luck!

I think one my most favorite things here at the MTC is finding people that I know or finding people that know people I know. For instance, the other night I ran into an Elder whose last name was McGuire. In Kosovo one of our sister missionaries was Sister McGuire. So I asked him if he had a relative who served in the Adriatic South Mission and he said that he did! It turns out Sister McGuire is elder McGuire's cousin!!

So yeah, that's basically my week. Just know that I love all of you and that God loves you even more. And if you're struggling with faith go into the New Testament in The Bible and read Hebrews Chapter 11. It's super good. I hope you all have a nice week and remember to have some "ofa fakakalaisi" (charity) and pray for some "fakalakalaka" (guidance) in your life.
