This week went by very fast. It started with decorating the MQ (missionary quarters - the place I sleep) for Christmas and getting Christmas ties from my mom. It's funny that it's Christmas time, but here in Tonga it's very hot and humid. I usually think of a white Christmas but now it's just a hot Christmas. This past week I got sick with flu-like symptoms. I had a stomach ache, high fever, stuff like that. Then I got better and we went on with what we usually do which is to walk up our street and say hello to everyone.
This past Sunday I was able to speak in sacrament meeting. I talked about missionary work and how we can be missionaries in our every day lives. So yeah, that was fun. We also cleaned the church building as our ngaue ofa (service).
The other day I also ate a pig. The pigs here are very delicious, and I don't know why. Maybe it's the way they are cooked. I don't know. All I know is that it was delicious. One thing I love about Tonga is how delicious everything is here. Everything. from the taro all the way to the dog ;). It's all so very delicious.
So yeah, this past week has been a blast, even though I got sick. And because it is Christmas time I would like to invite you all to watch a video the church has released called The Christ Child. It's really good!
Ofa atu,
Elder Delgado
