Easter

We got an 8 feet tall kite and we are tried to fly it this morning but we almost Died haha that thing comes down to the ground with some force haha

We also blew a transformer because our kite went into a power line and cut the power... sooooo we are going to fix that!
Um as for other traditions well satan has turned every good holiday into a immoral drinking fest! so really kites and church are the only traditions haha

Um yes my companion is named Elder Ort and i will be his mother! (I have no idea what he means by that. -Christie)

sooooo fun!

He is from the states! 

 

Ummm well im almost out of time! but "ZR" Never cease to amaze me! they are progressing so well!

They are changing so Much!

Umm yeah i might end in a different misson than Elder Sheen because the mission is about to split and he is in the Islands but Elder Steed should be a Trinidad missionary for sure!

I hope to see him!

Well Conference is amazing! i like flipped out when i heard  President Evansons name!

I told all the missionaries! haha good to know  

Sad i wont be able to meet him when i come home... or maybe i would!

Anyways gotta go!

Love ya!

Kites and the Atonement

This week was a very interesting week! we had quite a few cool things and fun activities. 

 

First of all i cannot find my camera cord so that is why i am lacking on the photo uploading! 

 

 but we bought an 8 foot Tall kite that we are going to fly for Easter! flying kites in the Caribbean during Easter is a huge thing, i cannot remember it being a thing to do back home. 

But it is amazing to see the symbolism in why they really do fly kites at this time of the year. to remember that "He is Risen" such a cool thought !

But its Fun. It seems like everywhere i go now a days the Atonement gets brought up. 

Either its at Zone Conference or a random meeting with President Mehr or just in teaching people! 

The Atonement is real and is an amazing Blessing!  

 

I Actually have learned a lot about the Atonement and one of the coolest experience i have had recently is when we went to visit a less active person. We actually had a fall through in our plans while we took out 2 members so we went to visit an inactive family. And while we were talking about the atonement i felt like i needed to share that sometimes it is really hard to talk to people about our problems, because often people we talk to will try to console us but in reality they don't know what we are feeling or what our pains our like..But the beautiful miracle of the Atonement is that Jesus Christ Knows exactly how each situation feels and exactly our pains. And i could tell they really liked that.

Yesterday at church that  same lady Got up and bore her testimony about how recently she had been going through a lot of trials and how she felt nobody would understand, but the missionaries came over and taught her about the atonement and how she is so blessed to know that Christ knows. she is Great! anyways that was a lot of fun! 

But today so far was interesting ! We had President Mehr here and he taught a little bit but he came for interviews, so surprise i kind of know my transfer call all ready. 

I am going to stay in canje as a Zone leader but i am going to have either a Temp or a next missionary. 

and the Other Zone leader will be in Rosignol Area with either a Temp  or a regular missionary.. So Whew its going to be interesting!

But Yes "ZR" and their two future missionary sons.

They are Great! we had been talking to members about them and they were taught before and the problem before was he was not interested in marriage but we went over this week and he actually brought marriage up and started talking all sort of plans  to get married! sooo!! Whoo!

They are awesome! They are planning on getting married on the second of May! 

 

All is going well in this area! things are really picking up! 

 

I Love Being a missionary!

Love Elder Pierson
