            Well Just to get things started, you guys make me laugh thinking that I’m lost on a savage island. Actually it’s pretty close to that haha. But No, I’m just here in my new sector called Mataiea, just before the Presque isle. It’s pretty dang great here, the members are great in the ward, and the lifestyle is a lot more laid back, kind of like when I was out in Hao. Scary thing is, I’ve been thinking that this very well could be my last sector on my mission. Of course I will be asking the pres. to send me back to my last sector before I leave, I love and miss those people way too much.

            Sorry for the lack of consistency when it comes to emails lately. For some reason, all of our members here are stuck in the 40's meaning no one has a computer. Anyway, I’m alive and doing better than ever. The mission just continues to get more and more crazy, We have a new mission president and you can already feel the huge change that he is bringing to the mission. He is a great guy and I have a lot of respect for him. Sadly I will only be here for the baby steps of his mission and will have to see his full potential from America. But I think I will be coming back here to Tahiti as soon as I can to see all these people again. I may just find my wife here so that I can have an easier way of coming back here whenever I want!

            We had a baptism yesterday, it went really well, the service was simple, but the best part for me was watching the look on the face of the one who baptized. It was the first time that he had ever baptized someone, and the Lord gave him the great blessing of having that first baptism be his brother! I love my mission. I wish that I had more time to let you all know the other things that have happened. But I don't, so I will just send a bunch of pictures instead. Enjoy!

I love you all, Stay safe this week!
