Malo e lelei!

Hope your week has been pretty good, mine was alright just had Nora and Evelyn's baptisms!!!!! Except Evelyn pronounced hers Bap-tie-zm, but that's all good she's only 9. and that was what most of this week was working towards just getting both of them baptized and now scrambling to get these baptism records finished and all of the information correct and trying to get them in to the right people everyone starts growling me. They only growl me though no one seems to growl Elder Ranaivosoa, if only I didn't speak English, but alas I do and am expected to be doing things better than I am.

But it's all good because they were baptized!!! So I reckon everyone can just relax and let the master of the ship do what he wants and just realize that this is salvation!!! Hooray for salvation. We actually had a nice little chat about that, when I don't give proper corrections to missionaries (every DLC seems to be on corrections) I am encouraging them to choose Eternal Death as stated in 2d Nephi 2: 26-29; I think maybe choosing eternal death is a bit of an overkill, but it's what the training's are on so I reckon that is important. Also, everyone is just so big here in New Zealand, it's a plus because going up to talk to someone they can't really run away because heaps of them just kinda swing their legs around to move.

Have a few keen referrals and we have a pair of baptisms set for June and July! So that is excited even though it is ages away. I"m excited though, for whomever is part of their baptisms.

Transfers are this week, so we will see if I shift or not, I'm thinking it will be a double shift but God knows so it is all good!

Ofa atu,

Elder Long
