Dear Family and Friends,
One year of Chaco tan lines
Birthday
Party for Tua, mami Tetua. Ended up being more of a political
celebration, and we left when people started getting drunk, which was
really too bad.
Video: FHE night that everyone loved. Even the papi's were crying laughing Haha
Sometimes you'd think we are in the Truman
Show. Riding our bike around in circles, with the same people always on
the street. I can only imagine for the missionaries who live in the
Tuamotus.
Our super intelligent ami. Marie T. She's 11, And she asks the best questions in lessons
Last Family SKKKYPE. LOVE you guys!!!
Love,
Brooke
Here's a part of Brooke's email to her mission president:
I just received hand-written letters
from my family and Sr. Toofa's family, I think that's the best gift we
ever get from home, as missionaries. I cherish certain letters that my
family has sent me for the challenging mission moments. My dad just
sent this quote:
"Expect your challenges to be a little harder and your burden to be a bit heavier as the Lord refines you and really uses you as his missionary to accomplish the tasks that others can not do. Don't be discouraged. Your sacrifice is recorded by the angels. Someday we will watch your life movie and these will be some of your favorite scenes. "
Suffice it to say, we are doing great! Small miracles or tender mercies come each day. We were delighted to see that new amis came to church, thanks to engagements and membre intergrators! An inactive family as well! We have several plan d'actions fixed with the branch, so now we need to put them in action! Our Sondage, in Moerai went very smoothly, with success. 17 members from this village came to support us! We had a "Unity in the Travail Missionaire" theme for Sacrament Meeting and that went very well!! We were able to give talks as well as the ward missionaries, and sing. The DMP and Branch President bore great testimonies at the end. We work with a few inactive families chosen by the President of Branch. And there are progressing amis here!
