Mauri everyone! Hope everyone's doing great!
So crazy story. Last week, Elder Sablan got back from Nikunau after being out there for a week for Zone Leader business. I was going through his pictures on his camera and saw one of Taabua, one of my recent converts from Ambo. She had told me before that she was moving to Nikunau, but I never knew why. I found out from Elder Sablan that she got sent there by her family for an arranged re-marriage (she had lost her previous husband before Elder Rowsell and I started teaching her). Her new husband was a member of a different religion, the Baha'i, and Taabua wasn't able to go to church because of him. By the great tender mercies of the Lord, the missionaries on Nikunau found them and baptized Taabua's husband. I was literally on cloud nine when I found out. The Lord has a plan!
The work has been picking up again here in Eita. We have a baptism scheduled this upcoming Saturday. She's a 12 year girl who wants to follow in the steps of her grandmother who also stays in her house. Neither of her parents are members, but I can tell they're being prepared by the Lord.
Not much else to say for now. Not many days left, and I'm trying to make the most of it. I just hit me that I only have Sunday left.........scary.
I tangiringkami! Thank you everyone for all the support you've given me throughout the mission!
