Transfers Tonga

Yeah mom i did get transfered, really a big surprise, last week after zone conference Prez interviewed me and told me that i was going to stay, but then Sunday afternoon he calls and tells me that i am transfering back to Tonga, but didn't tell me where, well i am the new AP. I dont really know how else to put it. I feel very inadequate and overwhelmed a bit by the amount of stuff to do, but i will have ample amount of time to Email home as we will often be working in the office.   I was really sad to leave Vava'u. Man, I was crying so hard because I had to leave.  I really loved it  there and I really loved my comp Elder Fainu.  He is from my new area, and is the greatest missionary in the mission.  My hardest transfer so far, I really didn't want to leave.  Now, I am comps with Elder Fisher who I was in the MTC with and we are going to work super hard this next transfer.   We were really busy the past two weeks with Zone Conference and other stuff which why I didn't write back, kataki fkmolemole.  I hope you got my snail mail letters that I wrote you.  I got the package Malo aupito for the sandels and the candy loved it a lot!!

So sorry to hear about Uncle Dave and Aunt Melissa that has to be a big bummer.  I will keep them in my prayers.  They have done a lot of praying for me and I can return the favor some.  

Looks and sounds like Ellen had a blast at Girls camp and at Girls State. So great to hear she is having a great summer.

Hope hillary is doing well.

Mom, I got your letters about Christmas in July-- the one you wrote on June 28== is right in front of me.  I haven't looked up that scripture from Alma but I will when I get to my new house. I havent even gotten to my new house yet-- we have had so many meetings and doing a bunch of stuff.

 

Okay oku ou ofa lahi atu!!!!

Hey Russelll can you tell me how to say  "i dont speak german" in German?  There is a german phone company maybe T-mobile  that is always calling the Mission Office here, they dont speak English.  So we have a lot of fun talking to them in Tongan but if you could tell us how to say some things in German.  We can have them stop calling us I always say dankechen Thank you spelling haha!
