Welcome to the world Sierra!!! :) Oh the family is just expanding I'm lovin it!! :) This weak was an awesome week just as they always are!!! Lot of incredible things happened this week! Miracles all over the place!!! :) So we ended up saving heaps of souls this month! The missionaries are all incredible and I have very much enjoyed serving with them they're awesome!! We were blessed to save 32 souls!! :) Cheeeehooo!!!! So that was very fun to see that all unfold!! Very busy weekend! And the week was busy as! We had heaps of trade offs again which is always fun! I just love the missionaries in this zone so much they've been so fun to work with! Monday night one of our main fellowshippers, Eli, had his last FHE with everyone!! He's leaving to the Marshall Islands! He's the man I love the guy to death!! I was with this little butterball who is samoan his name is Elder Maota! He's the man we had a really fun trade off! Oh by the way that night we went and saw Lillie our recent convert and she's already going off on her plans to serve a mission!! She's incredible and we're jokin around we're like na you need to get married and have babies! But she was like no way that is gonna have to all wait until after I serve the Lord! :) She's awesome aye?! They're just p;owerful converts and they're onfire right now! :) The next day we just went back to work and kept workin as always!! And than we started another trade off that evening with Elder Hibbard and his companion! Elder Hibbard is the man!! We had so much fun on our trade off!! Great missionary he's hilarious goodness gracious!! And during our tradeoffs we got to go on splits with the MTC missionaries again! WOOO!! That was fun!! We had some really funny missionaries from Fiji and some other island i've never heard of!! Awesome elders! Than the weekendstarted and there was heaps of baptisms! All saturday we were traveling from one baptism to the other! So much fun i love getting to see all these baptisms! :) Even some last second miracles where people were set to be baptized the night of and on sunday morning! Just massive tender mercies from the Lord all over the place it has been wonderful:) Sunday was a good day as well! Though we've been doing heaps with all the missionaries, serving them and helping them, our area has been struggling a little bit! So not many investigators made it to church this weekend.. But we had some massive feeds later with bishop!! haha and a really good fireside that Sister Perry and Taotua put on in their ward! It was SOO good!! :) But besides all that there is not much to update ya on!! Transfers is this thursday and we gotta go pick up some missionaries from Sky City in downtown Auckland today from a bus stop! We're not allowed to go there except for this purpose! So this will be the closest I come to sky tower EVER!! So that's exciting!! and... I dunno what else! Oh our awesome brazilian couple we've been teaching took off to brazil for 4 weeks so don't know when I'll see them again!! Um.. We have some really keen new families we're teaching so that's been really fun!!! :) Well once again I love ya'll!!! And hope you have another awesome week!! May God bless you all and pour out his love and his blessings upon all of you!!! LOVE YOU!!!!! :) Love Elder Devey
