Good to hear from you again, it has been awhile and I apologize for not writing last week, I just forgot. Things are going pretty well, I've been transferred and am now in Manukau stake back in south auckland. Pretty much where I was last summer just a bit further west more in Mangere and not Mangere East/Favona. Or at least technically we are in Manukau stake but I am now in the Niuean program and the Niuean ward which has no boundaries apparently. The only boundaries for my companion and I are the mission boundary which is a bit stink because half of our members live outside of the mission boundary. . . But that was a bit of a shock when I got that call to come into this ward, should be a bit fun and interesting to be in a language program. I'm just hoping that they send me a name badge in Niuean. Haven't picked up too much of the language, but I'm working on it.
But I love the Niuean people so far, most of them speak English as well, but it means that I can start learning another language too, thinking I may ask for a language study time.
As for our week, we didn't get up to too much, heaps of it is lost in travel time visiting members ages away and there is heaps of traffic down here, not like bad traffic but I forgot that Whangarei has no cars in it and they don't really have traffic. We have this 9-year-old girl, Losa, that we are working with and she came to a fireside last night where Sammy J sang. You can look him up, he is a member reggae singer, he's alright. And that was pretty much us
