HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!!! :) Another shout out to my momma! Mom i love you so much you're the best mom in the world!!! ;) I love you heaps!!!! i hope you all had another wonderful week and that everything is going awesome with all of you guys! Know that I miss you all and love you very very much!!! :) So this week was another good one! As always!! Things are going good! No complaint over here! :) So last pday was super lame!! We had heaps of random errands to do! Moving cars around and what have you! BUT! Where we were doing a lot of errands was around the one and only Carl's Jr in New Zealand!!! It's brand new! So of course we went there for lunch!! So that was pretty epic! :) But besides that nothing else really happened on pday just random as errands! But that night we had another FHE with the Tutai family, which is fellowshipping most of our sets! We found them all through them so the FHEs are really fun! So that was good! We've been working a lot more effectively with the ward as of late and we've been seeing the blessings that have come forth because of it! it's been wonderful! :) So things have been pretty good here on this end! it's starting to get cold though and it's raining a bit more! Not looking forward to the winter months! Elder Dyumthi came up again!! :) Yay!!! He came for ZL council, it's so much fun staying with him all the time when he comes up! I love that guy to death!! Our Zone Leader Council was REALLY fun and SUPER special!!! We had a general authority, he is a member of the seventy, Elder Hamula there who gave us heaps of training! It was incredible!!! :) So much fun he was very good! Inspired that's for sure:) He's still hanging around the mission and will be at our Zone Conference tommorrow! So that was a wonderful experience! We've had heaps of miracles this week as well!! :) So the members have helped heaps and we have now 5 sets for the last weekend of this month!!! :) We got Tania, Martha, Emi, Talanoa, and Devante!! It's funny but most people I've baptized throughout my mission are single ladies from 20-35 and some with children that we baptize!! But I don't know why that is!! lol Devante was a miracle, it's Martha's son and he turns 8 next week so he's getting baptized with her! We were talking to him we're like how old are you?! She's like he's turning 8 in a week! We're like you should get baptized with your mom! Would you like that?! And he's like ya!!! haha:) Also Tania has 2 girls that say they wanna be baptized with their mom! :) We just need to properly teach and invite them! Also Talanoa's family is keen as well!! All this came through member work and referrals!! So we're pretty pumped!!! Heaps of blessings and miracles lately!! Oh also we're still working on getting Nancy's daughters baptized any weekend now! They just need to be home for it!! :) So things have been awesome lately and it honestly feels like none of it was from us!! The Lord truly is merciful and has blessed us greatly as of late!! The members are incredible so it's been a lot of fun!! We also had leadership training after that which was really fun as well!! Always good to receive counsel and guidance! Than off went Elder Dyumthi once again! But we shall see him soon as always!! :) Went and watched another baptism on Saturday. had a really fun day on saturday! and... what else?! I dunno! Things are just going awesome over here!! Sunday was really good as well!! Great mother's day and we were blessed to have a lot at church again and a fun lesson with all of them in our class!! :) More lessons in member homes and had some mean feeds this week as always!! Our fridge is always packed hard out and we're always eating i swear!! I'm gonna miss the islander lifestyle!! Such loving, beautiful people... I just love the mission so much!!! It's the best thing ever!!! :) And it was heaps of fun talking to mom and dad this morning!! :) oh my goodness it was great!! Wonderful to hear their voices and to speak to them!! Too much fun!!! :) HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!! :) Love Elder Devey ps the pics.... one with the sisters. They did a dance at a missionary activity! haha Other ones is my posterity!!! :) The fruit of my loins! They're all within leadership! Just missing the greenie. So I begat Elder Espino, who begat Read, who begat Alder, who begat Mutton... And the greenie isn't in the pic!! Elder Espino my firstborn in the wilderness!! :) oh and E. Dyumthi!! Enjoy!! OFA ATU!!!! :)
