Hanatea finds a Trombone to play!




So the Mother's day skype thing is the best thing in the whole world. It was soooooo good to talk to my parents and get some advice and just talk about their lives and what's been going on with them! Really really sweet. Also the member's house that we skyped at, he had like 60 guitars and a soprano sax and also a trombone which I jammed on for a bit haha. SUCH A GOOD DAY


Me and Hermana Allen have had a GOOD week. We are really close to setting a baptismal date with the Magana kids, we've talked to them about it, taught them, and they are currently praying about June 10th. Keep them in your prayers that they will continue to progress towards baptism! They are super smart kids and just know their stuff.

We found 5 new investigators this week - A family of 5. They actually came to US and asked to be taught, which was this huge fatty miracle! What even! That never happens!

We also had to turn one of our investigators, this lady named Jenny, over to the English Elders here in Burley. She was pretty dang golden and really interested, but said she would prefer going to Church in English - so we took the Elders by and introduced them to her and oh my goodness gracious, that was the most awkward thing I've ever experienced. The Elders were just sooooo awkward and said weird things and I was just like what! Nooooo! And Jenny kept looking at us like "ummm....are you guys gonna still come by?" So we'll have to go check up on her once in a while haha. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Elders. 



We had a big district lunch and Elder Montgomery made us all this thing that he calls "Tongan pancakes" and I have no idea why but it is a halfway-cooked packet of ramen with a tomato, ranch, and taco sauce, in between 2 pieces of white bread and we were like uhhhhooookayyy but hey - I was pretty stoked. Not as bad as it sounds lol. I also had a good hot dog this week, so spirits are high my friends. Oh and also we had crepes. So spirits are REALLY high. 

Keep on working hard and being nuggets of gold and goodness! I love each and every one of you! 

Lots of love,
Hermana Elkington
