July 11, 2011

                                                       President Benjamin Tauraa Sinjoux

The work here continues. July is by far the hardest month of the year here cause everyone is on vacation. But we have managed to keep it moving. We do lots a looking and just a teensy little bit of finding. But this week we have seen a lot of miracles in that all of our investigators are taking the decision to be baptised. We have four baptisms fixed for this month and August with at least one more coming this week. Therefore making us by far the highest of the zone. Miracles still happen. Monday we were in Papeete the whole day which was kind of lame. But it was all worth it cause we ate at McDonald's. Wednesday we were in Papeete once again for our zone leader meeting dealy with the new pres, President Sinjoux. He's legit. He isn't really going to change anything but he'll make adjustments where it's necessary. So we all really like him. His wife was a big politician before coming on mission.  She doesn't talk, but she rather forcefully puts her words into your ears. We'll see though. Friday we have a Zone Conference and we'll be talking about a "surprise subject". Normally surprises are great but this one bites. Thursday we drove around in circles to get everyone interviewed by president. I tried and succeeded in my fast and furious skills. And finally Friday we had a baptism for our investigator Rahei. From day one she wanted to get baptised and after a long struggle in finally happened. Everything seemed to be against us but it happened. Normally she is way super timid and stuff but as soon as she came out of the water she truly was a new person. Happy and confident. Also the baptism touched one of our eternal investigators who was there, so after he came up to me and he said he's ready to get baptised. Sweet! the spirit rocks. Don't forget it.
