Well, this is my last week with Elder Johnson we think, eveything is good here though. We are really giving it everyhting we have this transfer and We were able to set the Whetu family for baptism which was amazing! We also are teaching this one guy named Steve Parkinson, and man it was a week.
As we have been talking one thing that we lewarned is that Steve is a massive as fisherman. like HUGE. We were talking and he said that he wanted to take us out Salt water fishing off the beach with either two types of ways, the first one is called a surf caster and you cast the line out past the wave break and fish for massive Kawai, but apparently they are power houses.
The second way is called, get this, Kite fishing. What you do, is you hook 1 kilometer of line to a kite and sent the kite out over the water and attach like 20 hooks on the whole thing and see what you get, for us, we went Kite fishing because Elder Johnson will probably leave next thursday we went last week. It was great, the only problem was that the wind was blowing the wrong way so we ended up having to call it and now we will have to do it next week, but still it was awesome!
After, We went back to his house and had a Kai, one of his family members showed up and started talking and had this suprised as look on his face. Later the next day, we found out that he was his uncle, and he was talking to us about what we did going fishing with him, and he told us that no one has ever gotten this close to him on talking about the gospel and bring him back to church. not even his close family. We were shocked and we both just were blown away that this guy basically called us miracle workers, but man I must say, I am so humbled to be in this part of the Lords vineyard. I love this work soooooooooo much and i never want to come home sorry haha.
