The Kangas be Creepin' and Elder Fiaui be Preachin'!

Dear family and friends,
 
Aloha and g'day mates and sheilas all the way from the other side of the earth! This week has all been a blur...like every week in the mission!

Look a these kangas---they be straight up flexin'

Monday- Highlight of the day... we go back to the flat, hopped out, checked the mail, and then....I GOT MAIL SON! I was stoked. From my mom! Thank you Mom I love you! (I think every missionary yells out a battle cry when they get mail) It's almost like "The Best Two Years" when we get mail...except crazier and louder. That movie doesn't do enough justice. :)
 
Tuesday- We worked with our area book. Found a lot of less-actives who hadn't been visited for a long time. We also had a family home evening with a Samoan family in the ward.


Seriously, these kangas are just cruising at the local subdivision neighborhood park

 
Wednesday- I was on exchanges with Elder Anae-Ahsue on foot in Epping. So we did lots of finding and talking to people on the street. We visited quite a few families. In the middle of the day 39 degrees celcius (pretty hot weather), bright as outside. And it starts raining on us! Man this weather random as! So it just kept raining the rest of the day with the sun full on. Mate...Melbourne weather is weird as sometimes.

Me and the Elder Crew

 
Thursday- We had zone meeting. I met all of the zone. The trainings went alright, but the roleplays were mean as. They went really well. Afterwards I received more... MAIL! Jea boi! From Honolulu, Hawaii from my Grandma! If you are reading this Grandma, thank you and I love you! After wards my district and I went to KFC and bought $75 worth of fried chicken...it was crazy! We ate it all!

This is all the food we got from K-Fry

 
Friday- My exchange in Footscray (Asian-ville) and the city of Melbourne. Let me just say first the city is a crazy place! So many people, everyone's walking fast as, many...interesting children of God. It was gangstah in the city though! I learned heaps from Elder Marker (from North Nevada) in finding. We talked to many people on the street that day! We also used the trains all throughout the city to talk to people. Oh and Elder Marker is in the Vietnamese Speaking program so he was speaking Viet everywhere we went. It was a sight to see a white guy speaking Viet!:)
 
Saturday- We visited more less actives and worked out of the area book. It's pretty outdated but we work with what we got!
 We actually found a lady to go back and teach from knocking on previous members house. That is to say the members had moved out. She was interested in what we had to share about the gospel!
 
Sunday- Went to church! Afterwards we went to go visit our Iraqi Investigator family. The father was only home so we taught him about the Godhead and taught him how to pray. Just witnessing him say his first prayer was surreal. Something definitely felt different in the room. 
 
Great week though! Just tryin to stay busy and keep obedient!:) haha. Everyone take care and have a great week!
 
Aloha! & Fa Soifua!
Elder Fiaui
