Hey Mom!
Sounds like you guys had a fun Fathers day! I miss and love you so much! It's crazy to me that Jacob is finishing his time! I've been thinking about him a lot recently and wishing the very best for him. I usually have a chance to email him, but you'll have to tell him I said hello! The work in my area continues to go well and remain productive. Two of our investigators were baptized this past week. Their names are Christina and Amiina- both young teenage girls. We found their parents to be less active while tracting and reactivated them during the process of teaching their children and preparing them for baptism. The family unit is in many ways similar to that of families at home. Culture dictates that the wife cooks, cleans, washes, etc. while the man does manly-stuff like fishing and cutting coconuts to sell. The difference however is that there are a lot more broken families, largely because of a lack of emphasis on the significance of marriage. I've had lots of opportunities to testify of the significance of families and see how families are truly blessed by the gospel. Because of a general lack of family structure, a lot of kids don't grow up understanding righteous principles. An analogy that I try to teach to many fathers and mothers is similar to President Hinckely's story about his backyard tree. I relate children to coconut trees and try to explain that children, just like coconut trees, have to be nurtured in their youth if they are going to grow up right. I also share Proverbs 22:6 "Reireia te tei aroarona a riai, Ao ngana e a unim'ane ao e bon akikitanna."-in English I guess something along the lines of "teach children what things they must do, and when they are old they will not leave it." I love being able to watch and experience the positive effect the gospel has on families. I don't really have many crazy stories from this past week to share. We went crab hunting and a crab latched on to the finger of one of our recent converts named Katoi and probably would have broken it, had Katoi not reacted in respone by biting the crabs pincer off its arm. We went tracting this past week and were brought into a house with a dead guy laying in the middle of the room starting to rot. Turns out he murdered his wife and was quite the lunatic. Needless to say we got out of that house pretty fast. Sorry my letter is going to be short this week as well, I'm running a little low on time. Know Mom that I love you so much and look forward to emailing each and every week. Please tell the family that I miss and love them so much! Elder Morphonios
