Hello family!! So. are you ready to hear who my new companion is? maybe you know from the "subject". My new companion is sister finau. she is from Tonga and is SO>>>..... amazing!! she is so humble and so chill! haha its really nice as a trainer to have a tongan because they are so go with the flow. no stress!!
Although.. yeah... i was hoping to get a filipina.. God has something else in store for me. And im thankful that sister finau is part of that. Plus, I know now how to pray (simply) in tongan. who knew missions would teach you so many languages! :) It is funny though becasue everyone thinks she is filipina so they talk to her and then she looks at me and i start speaking. They get so amazed that i speak tagalog haha.
How is everyone doing at home? I hope you are all safe and happy. Has it snowed yet over there? Are you guys so excited for Halloween!!!???? I am so jealous of all of you. But we do have a fun holiday coming up here in the Philippines. Its on the 1 and 2 of november. "all saints day". Its the day they go and celebrate the dead. Its kind of like halloween because they have scary movies on all the time and they tell scary stories. They get pretty crazy because we have to be in the house at 6pm those two days.
What are the kids going to be for halloween? Did I ask if it snowed yet? Hopefully not so you guys wont freeze while outside.
We have been doing really well out here. It has been hard these past couple of days starting over and finding people. But its also one of my favorite things. I love to just talk with everyone and observe everyday life. Helping people with their tasks is pretty fun too. Just to start washing the clothes with them or whatever. Its fun to see their reaction. Alright, I have to go email President. I love you all and want to hear how everyone is doing. Send me pictures!!!
Mahal, Sister Merrill
