So Family,
First ,Sole didn’t get baptized. I cried and cried and cried
and cried.... and then some more. But we are still praying for a miracle. So
last week I told you that his family disowned him and he is still willing to
get baptized but then the people he is boarding with don’t like Mormons and
threatened to kick him out and started causing problems with his rugby coach
which led to his coach threatening to kick him off the team and send him back
to Tonga. He called us crying. None of us know what to do so we just keep
praying. The adversary really pulled out all the stops on this one!! Anyway I
will keep you updated. If I write to much more about it ill be sobbing in the
library and we don’t want that, please pray for him.
Next we are teaching a guy named Simon. He is completely
deaf and so I am now also learning New Zealand Sign Language along with
Tongan. And holy moly its hard work getting ready for each lesson!!
But we took him to the temple yesterday for a fireside at the visitor center
and he loved it. We cannot find anyone to interpret for him but when we talked
with him after he told us he can feel it in his heart. I feel bad that he
cannot understand anything in church or the meetings and I wish there was a
better way to help him understand so we are working on it. All we can do for
now is teach Sunday School and write everything on the board and watch movies
with subtitles. If anyone has any better ideas please send an email with them
we can use all the help we can get.
We are teaching some other people but not too much progression
yet. We are still happy and loving it here in Cambridge! And I am pretty
professional at eating vegetables now I can hardly believe it! I ate a cabbage
stir fry the other day and a whole bowl of peas and carrots! CHAMPION!
Love you all and have a very HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!
Love Sister Miggin
