Oh man!!!!!
Hey Mum and Whanau,
What an awesome experience to open up my email's and see all the fun pictures of Jenna's arrival home. Not much else spells, "Trunky" than when you see those pictures. Hehe. It was so awesome and guess what? I'm next! Thanks for all the emails and pictures. I look forward to more pictures.
What an awesome feeling Sister J must have felt walking through those doors at the airport. I look forward to those same feelings. Oh man… Hehe! Stop crying mum. Hehe!
Well, this week has been a great an awesome week of finding new investigators. We gave a pamphlet to one little lady who we had purchased some pineapple from and after talking with her we set an appointment to return and visit her. Well, upon our return appointment she said to us, "Hold on, I've got to call my friends!" She came back with five of her friends. We visited with them and explained who we were and then proceeded to teach Lesson. We felt prompted to focus on, "Families!" We explained how the gospel can help families and how it's central focus is on families. They loved the lesson and were very interested and nice so we set a return appointment for Wednesday. Cool as.
Another experience was where we visited a less active family whom we had not met before. They started to explain a little as to why they had become less active. I invited them to come to the Temple for a Temple tour. The lady said, "Hold on" and she gaps it out of the house and comes back with like eight children all 10 years of age and over. She says, "These are my kids and these others are my nieces and nephews!" She then said to the children, "Um, the Elders have a question for you." I paused and then extended the invitation to each of them to attend the Temple tour and every one of them were excited and agreed to come. It was so sweet. We taught the family and relatives and then set a return appointment before leaving. It was really great and the kids were so nice.
A family member from another less active family died, which was sad and so we are looking forward to teaching the family when they return from their province in Bicol. It has been a great week and Elder Van Dyke is doing great. School is back in this week and everyone goes back to work. This transfer is an eight week transfer and I know it will be great.
BIG NEWS!!!. ELDER ABLE IS BACK! I didn't go to transfer day but I got a text from another Elder saying he's back in the Mission. Cool aye. He's in Mindoro at the moment and it will be sad if I don't get to see him before I finish my mission. He is, "The man!"
I love you all heaps. Take care and have a good week and be safe.
Elder Chadderton
