Text of the page (random words):
n 1 what did you basically say during your testimony at the mission home answer i guess i just shared what i know to be true that jesus christ is the savior of the world we have a prophet you know the usual stuff i guess one thing i talked a lot about was how important it is to love the people you are serving i have such a strong love for the people of yap and i know that that is sooo important when serving a mission you just have to love the people that you are serving question 2 what are you hoping to get accomplished in the next 2 weeks before you come home answer i am hoping we baptize 4 people in my area before i go home that is my plan also to just strengthen the members here question 3 have you eaten any turtle answer yep it is really really good it is like a fishy beef taste if that makes sense question 4 have you met anyone on the island that we might consider wealthy answer yes he is an american he is in charge of local hotel that is it though question 5 did you have a lesson that went especially good this week could you describe it answer i would say the lesson with d llion he is going to be baptized on saturday we taught the ten commandments and the way he was talking about everything was that he believed in god the first time we met him he did not believe but now the way he talks he just does question 6 of all the beautiful scenery what have you seen that is the most beautiful answer i would say the ocean looking at the sun set on the ocean with coconut trees and a man house wow that is nice mom the picture was of me bearing my testimony because it was my last zone leader council in guam so everyone who is leaving soon gets to share their testimony i have been on guam since wednesday morning and am so excited to go back i can t wait we leave tomorrow night around 11 pm also in case the next box arrives after i leave i will ask the other missionaries to give the scriptures to them question 7 do you know anyone who had gotten their patriarchal blessing which tribe are they from answer everyone i know from yap that got their patriarchal blessing is from the tribe of manasseh elder waimila just got his this week and he is from ephriam question 8 describe a scene that brought a big smile to your face answer just getting back together with everyone i was in the mission training center with 2 years ago it was really fun to see them all again and to be able to talk about our missions together so that was awesome also sister david was on yap and got sent to guam and we saw her it was really fun she was really excited to see us i think she really misses yap question 9 what is something that happened this week that made your just really laugh this week answer umm we did a choir practice for the youth they were all really really shy to sing and didn t sing so it was pretty much the missionaries singing it was pretty funny question 10 how many people were at church this week answer there were around 70 people it was pretty good we had 6 investigators there too it was awesome letter to everyone alright honestly there is not a whole lot to say because i have been here on guam for a week but we were looking at 6 people to be baptized by the time that i leave but the number dropped a little bit because some didn t go to church but it is still good we had 2 baptisms on yap on saturday and they were both confirmed but i was not on the island to see them so that was a little bit sad it is okay though all went well i am excited to go back and to see them and to talk to them i will have to get some pictures of them so i can have them with me so that is two that could be baptized um j stin and tr cy are the ones that were baptized i was so excited for them the other ones we are looking at are also really awesome here on guam on saturday there were 5 baptisms in the barriguda ward it was really cool and a little tender mercy from the lord of the five baptisms there were 2 of them that were yapese it was crazy there are very few yapese on the island of guam and to have 2 baptized who came from yap at the same time we had 2 baptized on the actual island of yap this was just awesome to me it helped me feel like everything is going to work out the way it needs to the lord is in this work and he is in charge we just need to be ready to listen and to do what he says no matter what following week s letter alright so we came back from guam on wednesday morning around 4 30am it was not fun we are on the plane and i fall asleep i wake up and we are getting ready to land i ask elder waimila if we are on yap and he said no we are on guam again i was like what i look out the window and there are a ton of lights way too many to be yap i ask what is wrong he said something is wrong with the plane so we all get off the plane and wait in the airport i thought we would be stuck there for until saturday but it got fixed and we made it back when we got back everything was really slow nobody was home we could not find our investigators being gone for an entire week was not good it really hurt our area but now that we are back things are going strong again saturday and sunday were good days we had lots of lessons and things went well we should have 4 baptisms before i leave yap so that is going to be really great the aps flew in on sunday morning so that was good they are here now they are really good missionaries we take them back to the airport tomorrow night we have not had that much sleep this week i am really excited about yap and my area it is going really really good d llion is doing great i told you about him earlier he is awesome i really love teaching him he should be baptized on saturday m lisa is ready for baptism as well we are really excited for her too she will be baptized on saturday as well she is so excited to be baptized she wants to be baptized today but we said saturday would be better r na she is a girl that we have been teaching for a little while she has come to church 3 times and really wants to be baptized we have had a lot of good lessons with her just recently and she said she wants to be baptized with m lisa so that is what we are going to do so that is three al kita should be baptized on the 18th my last day on the island she is really good she just didn t go to church enough times we had to reschedule her baptism date elder waimila said the 18th i liked that because i would still be here normally the baptisms are on saturday but she wants to do it on wednesday well that is about what is going on here i sure do love it here i don t even feel like i am going home soon it still feels forever away it is going to hit me one day soon probably when i am on the plane but as of now i just don t feel like i am leaving yap i love the people here so much i love serving them i love this gospel i love you all so so much you are the best family every love elder meyer posted by john r meyer at 5 48 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels yap island letter location colonia yap micronesia tuesday june 3 2014 letter from elder meyer it s coming to a close a basketball miracle end of letter saying goodbye to yap island 2 years on this tiny island but big miracles were witnessed hello everyone this was a pretty good week i am in guam right now we had a meeting yesterday it was really good dad don t worry about the short letters you are doing amazing work you just need to focus on that i do want to get as much work done as i can before i go home when you said that man it made me hurt a little inside i know that i am going home soon but i don t feel like i am leaving soon it just doesn t seem right to leave yap i don t feel like it is going to happen soon then when you said that it kind of made me realize i am leaving sooner i want to have 23 people baptized on the island before i go the goal is 45 for the year so that is half question 1 how often is the holy ghost noticeably present during your teaching times answer honestly almost every lesson it is rare but very noticeable when the spirit is not in a lesson question 2 have you learned anything during your mission that will make you a better dad when that time comes about answer i would say patience i have learned how to be more patient and also helping people make the right decisions allowing them to use their agency but to help them use it in a helpful way question 3 if you had chosen not to go on a mission what would you have missed answer i would have missed out on everything i am a new person now i see everything differently my testimony would not be where it is today it would be weak question 4 what have you been praying for lately answer i have been praying for a couple of people specifically c lvina j stin and al cia also that our entire mission will reach 1 000 baptisms for the mission and 45 in yap for the year question 5 how many lessons and with member s present answer we had 31 lessons this week and 23 of them were member present lessons question 6 how did your best lesson go this week and what made it so answer i would say our lesson with a new investigator his name is d llion he has no background in god so we are starting at the beginning and it was just really awesome to testify something so simple that god exists most people here believe in god but he is not sure we had a really awesome lesson with him and it he really felt the spirit question 7 what made you smile this past week answer sunday we had 6 investigators at church it was awesome question 8 can you describe what makes missionary work so rewarding answer seeing people change from doing bad things and living a miserable life to doing good things and see them filled with the light of christ mom so there were 2 000 people at stake conference that is so many people i can t believe it that is crazy sounds like prom was really fun could you also send another basketball the one you sent is almost entirely destroyed the kids here love basketball question 9 are you ever cold on yap answer yes i am if there is an air conditioner on somewhere i am cold if it rains i am cold question 10 tell about a recent activity that took place answer every friday night we have a sports night so we had a lot of members and others there at the church playing basketball it was really fun i got to talk to some of the investigators that we had there and it really helped it helps them see that we are normal people not just people who share the gospel we know how to have fun question 11 describe a scene that you see often that you think would surprise me answer just the beauty of the sunrise or setting over the ocean it is really nice way better in person than any camera can show question 12 do you ever eat meals with members answer sometimes they don t invite us over like they do in the states it is much different but if they have food they will give us some while we are there at their house question 13 who cooks you or elder wamilia answer we both do neither of us is any good at it but we just make stuff up and hope it comes out okay question 14 tell me something that happened this week that made you smile answer teaching this mostly deaf guy we were teaching about the prophet how god always calls a prophet i did the pen thing and it didn t work because he wouldn t follow my hand he would go the opposite way when his eyes were open then elder waimila just says we have a prophet today he is going to speak on sunday okay let s pray and then we left it was so funny he didn t understand us very well and waimila just ended the lesson sharing final testimony in leadership meeting before coming home letter to everyone alright i can send picture because i am on guam but i am almost out of time so i will go fast this was a tough week teaching wise we still did good but it was a little bit harder we should have a couple of baptism this month so that is going to be awesome i really hope that we can make it to 23 before i leave we had a really awesome lesson after playing basketball there were a bunch of boys at a basketball court and i challenged them to a game of basketball if my team won we get to have a lesson so it was great i got some of the young men to help us play well we were behind 4 to 11 and then we won 28 to 30 the boys were really mad at first i thought it was going to be a terrible lesson but by then end it was great they all felt the spirit and they were not so mad anymore so that was good we taught about the restoration and prophets they all really understood it they all accepted a baptismal date so that was really good it was awesome a member that was less active was playing as well he was so not very happy when we started the lesson the whole time i was praying for the spirit to be in the lesson and that we would win the game at the end of the lesson the less active kid came up to me and told me to go and see him and that he forgot everything inside the book of mormon and that he wants to learn more so that was really awesome we are expecting to have a good week as soon as we get back to yap we will get there wednesday morning around 4 am we got to guam sunday around 7 so we didn t sleep all day saturday until sunday night so it was a long sunday yesterday but it was great i love you all so so much you are the best family ever i don t say it enough love elder meyer posted by john r meyer at 9 27 pm no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels
