"You Step Onto the Road, and if You Don't Keep Your Feet, There's no Knowing Where You Might be Swept Off to."

The rain finally stopped! It trickled a little bit on Friday, but the last of it was for the most part on Thursday. But that is when Elder Nonu's bike broke, so we have been walking until he gets it back... 

                      

Anyway, last Monday we went to the Anderson's for family home evening. (They almost always hold a family home evening at their house on Mondays) We thought there was going to be lots of people but there was just me and my companion, [Timothy] (a recent convert in our ward, he is pretty awesome. He is Cantonese, but was adopted by English parents when he was a baby, and has lived everywhere, so his accent is interesting. He used to be a total punk/goth thing, piercings all over, Mohawk, club every night, but now he is actually quite respectable. ;P He is 34, but still seems pretty young. Haha he is fun) who came with us, [Nick] (he is a YSA in the other elder's ward, but we see him all the time. He is the man. ), his sister (she is pretty young, I think about 9 and investigating the church), and of course, the Andersons. We talked about the pioneers, it was awesome!! 

Tuesday was pretty good, but in an average sort of way. Not much to say, we were still getting hit hard with the rain. We were going to do what is called rescue nights, where we get with the ward members and go visit less actives, but we were waiting and no one showed up. Turns out (pretty predictably, actually), they had cancelled it, and texted everyone but us, but hey, missionary problems. :P

Wednesday morning we went to see an investigator named [Pam]. She has been meeting with the missionaries for quite some time and she got married last December. She has been saying she will get baptized, but she keeps pushing it back, but she finally set a date for Saturday a couple weeks ago, and she had her baptismal interview today! Which she passed.

After that, we headed out to Takitumu. While we were visiting Sister [Tyler] (one of the regulars we see, she is an older single sister and she is awesome. She loves her animals and she was the one whose goat we were chasing) we had a pretty unique experience. Apparently sometime during the night, one of her goats was giving birth. Something went weird, or the mama goat was too wimpy or something, anyway, when Sister [Tyler] found her, she had a dead baby goat hanging half way out of her. Just it's head, leg, and a small part of another leg, and we did not know how to get it out. She had tried pulling it out, but nothing had happened. Now Sister [Tyler] LOVES her animals, so she didn't want the momma goat to get hurt. So we were worried about being too rough or something. She asked if we could bless it (not in complete seriousness, mostly just in a curious way), and we said no, but we could say a prayer? She said ok and asked one of us to say it. Me and Elder Nonu did not really know what to say, so we sort of looked at each other and had one of those mental exchanges of who was going to do it. It fell to me, so I said a prayer basically asking for the goat to be ok and for us to know how to help. We couldn't figure out what to do. So Sister was [Tyler] going to go see if she could call the vet, so she went back up to her house and it was just us and the goats. We didn't know what to do, but we felt prompted that we should just pull it. I told my companion that I said the prayer, so he got to pull...

So Elder Nonu grabbed some Taro leaves (Taro is a plant with large leaves that grows all over the south pacific. Specifically the root. The islanders love the stuff, they can't get enough. I don't think it is THAT good, but it is ok. The leaves [which, if eaten without being cooked properly, make your throat all scratchy, so they need to be cooked for a while], called Ruko, are really good, I will send a pic), and wrapped it around the head so he wouldn't have to touch it with his hands. I held the goat from the front so it wouldn't try to walk away, because it was obviously uncomfortable (and I think it was completely justified). At first it wouldn't budge, but he gave it a tug and it gave most of the way out, and then all the way out onto the ground. It was cool! It was pretty sad though, because the baby was dead, and the mother was trying to clean it off. But oh well, there was nothing we could do about that. It was just a cool experience. :)

Then we went to Sister [Kelly]'s house (another regular who happens to be another elderly single sister. There is a lot of elderly people in that branch. They are awesome though) She talked a whole bunch and gave us food. (They do both of those things a lot :D)

Then we went to go see a referral. It was a cool family, all of them. But it was mostly the father/husband that we talked to. And not as much out of choice. He was cool, like I said, but he would make a very good democratic liberal. Talking for ages about wars started to make money, money in general, conspiracies, unhealthy food and how come it is more expensive, how all religions are vehemently fighting each other so none of them must be right, how he is open minded but seems to know everything, and how the US is all about making money and not helping people. Man it was hard to listen to. But at least he wasn't angry or blaming us for any of it. Just the world in general. 

On Thursday we were really hungry, so we went and got breakfast after studies. It was way nice because I don't eat much breakfast anymore. Mostly because there is not much time to make a meal in the mornings, so you need something that is readily accessible and easy to eat, usually I get granola, but anything like that isn't safe around these Island boys. Man they can EAT! They eat so much food, I don't know where they put it. I have seen missionaries eat as much as 3 burgers, a thing of fries, and a drink and just barely be full, or still be hungry!! Haha, so it is hard not to get fat. (I think I have already gained some weight. :( But I am still skinny for now!! Ha!)

Anyway, we talked to a lot of tourists. There is heaps of tourists there and usually we don't talk to them as much cause they won't be there for long, but this week we talked to a good handful of them. While we were biking around we saw a low section of the road completely covered by a stream. It was flowing over it and cascading off the other side. So we jumped around in it for a while. Got pictures it was pretty flippin sweet.

 Then we went to a food shop to see someone we have been getting to know better and she is a potential potential investigator. She is cool, but we haven't talked to her much about the gospel yet. Anyway, we were going to talk to her, but some other guys came in and ordered some food, so she was busy making it so we weren't able to talk much. We got some milkshakes just to give us a reason to come back. (Usually we get smoothies, which are REALLY good here BTW, but they had no fruit)

 So then we saw another person (who is actually related to Elder Nonu, just like everyone else. Man we have met heaps of his family.) She was out with her son collecting coconuts for her pigs. They love them. So do all the animals. Man I have seen everything from pigs to chickens to dogs just go nuts over the coconuts. I took some pictures of her week old piglets, they were super cute. ^_^ Elder Nonu's bike chain kept coming off throughout the day, so that night while we were going home, and it just wouldn't' stay on, he just got fed up with it and chucked it, which I think broke some things, although I can't say they weren't broken before. So we took it to the shop and we have been bike-less for a couple of days. Lots of walking, but not a lot of people live close, so it was kind of a struggle finding things to do. 

Friday was Friday the 13th!!!! YAY awesome day. Anyway, we did our bible studies class at the college (high school). As we were going home we were offered a ride by a lady from another religion who was also teaching at the college (all the religions do it). Since it was only her in the car, and we aren't allowed to be alone with someone of the opposite gender like that, we said we couldn't. But it kind of caught us off guard, so Elder Nonu said we couldn't because we have rules. Haha I think she thought we weren't allowed to ride with other religions. Anyway, then someone else came from the AOG church who had also been teaching at the college and there was a man and a women so we accepted that one. Hehehe..... 

We went to the market on Saturday morning. Then we walked to Telecom (the phone service shop thingy of here) to talk with some of the YSA that work there. (From the other ward of course, we hardly have any in our ward) Then we had [Pam]'s baptism!! It was really awesome!! She was baptized with an 8 year old named [Jordan] who is her husband's sister's daughter, so [Pam]’s niece. Like I said though, it was really good. It was one of the most spiritual baptisms I have seen. I loved it! Though when we were filling up the font, it wasn't very full, but since [Jordan] is pretty small, they were worried it would be too deep. Turns out it was not too deep at all, in fact it should have had more. When my companion (who baptized [Pam]) got in, it was just over his knees! He is really tall though, like WAY tall, so it is not as shallow as it sounds, but it was funny. :) Then on Sunday we just had meetings, talked with some people in our ward who were waiting at the chapel. (Two youth and two of our three YSA...) Did some family history, more meetings, and then a walk to see an awesome family. 

That was the week! That was a really rambley email with a lot of probably unnecessary info, so I hope you felt patient, and thanks for reading up until this point! 

I also included some pictures of our living quarters! 

I also like this video. Enjoy: :)

Last week all we did for PDay was play basketball with the other elders and Elder Anderson (one of the senior missionaries). It was fun, but man I am sick of basketball sometimes. It is all my companion or the other two elders want to do. Sports sports sports. Which is fun, I love playing games with people, but when I am obviously the worst, and it is all we do, I would love to do some other things... sigh.

We were going to go to a family home evening Monday night, but it was cancelled, so we just watched 17 Miracles with one of our recent converts. Then on the way home, we were really hungry, so we got Palace Burgers. Palace is one of the main takeaways shops here. (A takeaway shop is basically a fast food shop. Burgers, fries, fish, etc. all pretty fast. And equally as unhealthy and that kind of gross you eat anyway.) But the Palace burger costs 15 dollars (which compared to their cheapest being 5 dollars, and their average price being 7-10 dollars for a burger, is less outrageous than it should be) and is more than half a foot tall so it is pretty big. And yes we ate it. It was pretty good. 

On Tuesday we had a trade off. I went to the other elder’s area, and Elder Taimani came to ours. Beginning this day, it started to rain. A LOT. Because of this we have not been able to do much at all. Both because it is hard to get around, and if we find someone at home, they don't really want to talk to us, cause we are all wet and they are trying to relax. On trade off, it was mostly us waiting at a hair salon for a spot to open for Elder Manarangi to get a haircut. And when he did, someone there wanted a blessing, and her hair was full of hair dye, so we had to wait for her hair to get washed out. When we traded back, we biked back to our area in Avarua and then went to bike out to our other area in Takitumu. It was raining and it got to the point where it was raining so hard we had to find some shelter and we had lunch while we waited for it to die down. It finally did, and we got to our area, but we had that problem mentioned above. The next day started some roughness. I woke up with a headache and my stomach hurt. The headache went away, but the stomach problem was there all day. But we didn't do much. Just some more service husking dodgy coconuts. Which was rough, and hot cause the rain was stopped here, but man, it was hard work. Also, we found 3 hermit crabs! 1 pretty big one and two small ones, but I only took pics of the big one and the first small one. 

After more unsuccessful biking around, we went back to Avarua, and I threw up. Little TMI, but, had to be said. I felt a lot better afterwards, but the pains came back that night. The next day I woke at 3 in the morning with more TMI probs. Let’s just say that a certain Nacho quote about Easters applied all of that day.

 But anyway, we had weekly planning, so we planned for the next week. Then we actually went into the family history center right next to us and Elder Nonu was able to find out more about some of his family from Mauke, one of the outer Islands. I just sort of looked through mine again. It is really interesting to see all of your ancestors. I did borrow a book there, though, called "Israel in the South Pacific". It is REALLY interesting. It talks about how the Polynesians are all descended from the people in the Americas and relating it to the Book of Mormon and how all their pedigrees match up and man it is cool.

But I also had to help some older ladies use Facebook, specifically adding pictures. They were amazed at my SD card reader, and were wondering how you put the date you posted onto a status. She was wondering why it said "just now" instead of the date. And she wanted me to explain the process of copy & paste so she could write it down. Starting with left click.

Then we had a few lessons, one was bit tough, cause he kept being weird. He was baptized a few months ago and he recently turned 16, and his 12 year old friend came over and they were just talking about so many false things. Phew. So, not the best lesson we have had with him. But he is still the man. 

On Saturday, I started to feel better. The second counselor in our mission presidency flew out. His name is President Reid. (We actually had David A. Bednar come to the mission, but since we were out here in the Cooks, we never got to meet him. We didn't even get a recording of his teaching. So that kind of stinks. Because apparently we even combined with the Hamilton mission, the mission right below ours, but again, we missed it. But President Reid is cool.) So we had a meeting with him and all the other missionaries on the Island, including Elder and Sister Anderson. Then he bought us all lunch.

After we spent the rest of the day having district conference, or where all the members in the Cook Islands district get together and have a sort of mass church. We sort out district business and such.

 The next morning, it was my birthday! Yay, the first day of my last year of teenagerism, meaning 19. I got a package from my family, and it was almost all super-hero themed. It was awesome, they know me well. ;)

Then we had our last session of district conference Sunday morning. After we came back to our Chapel, and it started raining hard out again. So we waited with one of our YSA named Jared for it to stop. It never did, so we just went out in it. Man we didn't even bike far, and we only had time to go to one house, but we got so wet. My rain jacket was overwhelmed and didn't help much after a while, but it wasn't its fault.

Then the other elders came over to spend the night and we played out in the rain. (Mostly Basketball cause they love it, meh) Then we played cards (YES, finally something not sports) and went to bed. I was going to make a cake, because my family sent over some stuff to make one, but we don't have vegetable oil or a pan to make it in, so I just had Ice Cream with Milo powder. (It is kind of like Hot Chocolate, in that it is a chocolate drink, but it is malted barley. It is a lot bigger here and in the South Pacifc than hot chocolate, but I don't think it is as good. But it is mean on Ice Cream.) 

Anyway, another week.

Stay cool y'all, I got this front.

-Elder Clayton-

P.S. this morning I have been asked to take pictures of 4 more people (those older ladies) to put onto FB, so I am pretty much picture boy now. If you want to see the pictures I have taken, along with a picture of me, it is on the FB page "my family 15 in 15"

"You Have Shown Your Usual Cunning in Getting Up Just in Time for a Meal"

Not too much time today. We saw Meet the Mormons on Monday. If you haven't seen it, it is awesome you should watch it!! I also got a haircut.

We went to an appointment on Tuesday, and I don't think me or my companion said much. Cause some of these people here can TALK. And about the weirdest things. You can ask a question on their thoughts of how church went, and end up with their life story. But they can still talk next time. Whew. But it is still awesome.

 On Wednesday we went to our other area and did service for a guy we have named "coco candy man". He is kind of strange, but so named because his business is selling coconut candy, or "coco candy". Anyway, it was a bit dodgy, the coconuts were very old, but all good. This week we are going to bring out the other elders too. So yay service!!

The day after we did some biking around as per the norm... and then we went to the hospital to give a blessing. Man it is a dodgy hospital. You know those sketchy 3rd world hospitals you see in the movies? It wasn't exactly those, but I definitely was slightly reminded of those... anyway, speaking of which, we gave 3 blessings this week. One was to a young woman in our ward named [Sharon]. She has a virus carried by mosquitoes. I think it is called dengue? It makes you incredibly sore and turns into a fever if not treated. So yay tropical diseases.

 The rest of our week was pretty slow. We had a branch activity on Friday, which went well. And I found a little crab walking around on Saturday!! It was probably a little too exciting for me... And on Saturday night a few of the few YSA we have took us to dinner. Sunday night we had a leadership broadcast from New Zealand. 

Anyways, life is good!! Especially since we finally went shopping. We haven't done it in like 4 weeks. So yay now we have food!!

-Elder Clayton-

"He Told Them Tales of Bees and Flowers, the Ways of Trees, and the Strange Creatures of the Forest, About the Evil Things and the Good things, Things Friendly and Things Unfriendly, Cruel things and Kind Things, and Secrets Hidden Under Brambles"

Not too much new happened this week. Mostly just continuing to visit the members. Gaining the trust of the members is probably one of the things missionaries in the past haven't done as much, and working with the members is the BEST way to do missionary work, cause they will know the area and people much better than we ever will, so a lot of what we have been doing is just getting to know them. 

But we still have done things. Last Monday we went on a hike! We went up a mountain called The Needle. It is pretty much the middle of the island. It was awesome. But we got a bit lost. Because The Needle is on a trail called the cross-island trail, which is pretty much what it sounds like. A trail that goes across the island.... and there is a waterfall towards the end. So we were looking for it, but there were a few trails, and our "tour guide", the one who just got baptized and married the Saturday before, hadn't gone from that side, so we got lost. But oh well, it was still awesome!! It was WAY muddy, and I did it in my sandals, cause one of the other elders has my other shoes, and he forgot to bring them. But it was all good and I got some good pictures. 

On Tuesday we had our district meeting. Here it is basically just a meeting for us, the other elders, and the senior missionary couple, just so we can keep the work going strong. 

So there are 3 branches (or groups) on this Island. One, called Arorangi, the other elders cover. The other two, Avarua and Takitumu, we cover. Now we mostly stay in Avarua, but we need to do more work in Takitumu, so we decided we are going to go there every Wednesday, stay the night, and come back Thursday night. So we did that for our first time this past week. It is a bit of a bike ride. About 45 minutes to an hour, depending on where you start and stop. (It would be nice to drive on the motorbikes or motorscooters especially that everyone else here drives, but we can't, so oh well!) And the flat there is a bit dodgy. It would be really nice, if we stayed there all the time. But the fridge doesn't work, the stuff is all old, there is no hot water, and per the norm there are many bugs. Not as many roaches (though there still are a few), mostly ants and heaps of dead or dying millipedes. There is also the occasional centipede. And not the little ones. Big ones. I only saw one the night we stayed there, but it was about 5 inches long. I tried to get a picture, but man that thing was FAST, so I will try to get a better one later.   

Oh, and by the way, all the chapels here are more of complexes, with there still being buildings, but you have to go outside to get to the other little buildings, but anyway, all of them have a missionary flat built in, so that is where we stay.

 So when we woke up Thursday morning in Takitumu, we got a call asking if we could come back to Avarua to give a blessing. So, (since we had to go past the chapels) we biked about an hour a half to go and give it, and then an hour and a half back, past the chapel, to go mow a lawn. Which, by the way, was on a ride on mower, so it wasn't as hard, but still hot, and lots of fun. But anyway that was tiring. After that we had lunch with a man named [Timothy], who is our most recent convert. He is originally Cantonese (from Hong Kong) but he was adopted as a baby by English parents, and has lived everywhere, namely Scotland and England.

The rest of our days were mostly, like I said, getting to know members. Teaching them. Haha, on Saturday we had a funny moment though. We were walking our bikes from a house (who, by the way, we had just set for baptism!!! Though apparently she keeps agreeing to when her husband moves out, but when he moves in a week later, she changes it, but hopefully this time!!) to another house, when a pretty drunk guy stopped us. From what I could understand of his thick accent and drunken tones, he was less active. So he was telling us about that. As we were there though, one of our YSA pulled up and started talking when the drunk man left. After that it was just a chain of members. When one left and we started to leave, another pulled up. And we had several just drive by and wave or shout hi while we were talking to the others. It all culminated with the other elders coming in the car of one of their members and saying hi. So when we finally got out of that, we go to the appointment, and the investigator was asleep. So instead we just gave a little member lesson to the two YSA (young single adults) that had come over cause they were friends with the said sleeping investigator. (Funnily enough, they are actually in the other elders ward, which is probably the strongest ward when it comes to amount of YSA. Our ward [usually if I say something like "our ward" it means the one in Avarua] has 3 I think, and 2 of them are leaving.)

So yes! All good, all fun, all in the service of the Lord!! 

Stay awesome y'all!!

"Never Before had he Been so Suddenly and so Keenly Aware of the Feel and Texture of a Tree's Skin and the Life Within it. He Felt a Delight in Wood and the Touch of it, Neither as a Forester nor as a Carpenter; it was the Delight of the Living Tree Itself."

Wow, it has been an adventure. So, after taking the bus down to Auckland, we all piled into a small minivan (there were three elders and two sisters, all with luggage...) and drove very squished to the mission office. After waiting there for all the missionaries going home to do their final interview with the mission president, some zone leaders from an area called Harbour came and picked us up. So we stayed in their flat and played touch rugby early in the morning. Then Elder Fanger left and I stayed in that flat for a couple more days. I was just in a trio with two elders named Elder Hann and Elder Burgess. It was fun.

We went to a driving range for lunch one of the days. It actually got me really pumped. I wanted to just go and talk with everyone. I guess being on my own really made me want to keep doing the work of the Lord. It was awesome. I did a TWE (talk with everyone) with this Asian couple, they weren't interested, but it was still really cool and I felt very successful doing it, so SWEET!

Haha it was funny, we went to a rescue night (where we go with members of the ward to go visit other less active members) and it was actually really weird! They were all white....ha I am so used to the brown ones now. And when there were none I felt a bit discomforted. Cause Harbour is all the rich white people. And heaps of Asians. Bottom line, it is very slow missionary wise, but it is still pretty cool! 

Anyway, on Thursday we didn't hear our alarm, so we woke up a bit late and had to rush to meet one of the mission couples at the office cause they were taking us to the Airport. So we picked up the other Elder going out. His name is Elder Taimani. He is Tongan, but from Salt Lake... Anyway, we got on the airplane all good, and after a three hour flight, we finally ended up in the lovely Island of Rarotonga!!

 We met our companions. Elder Taimani is with an elder named Elder Manarangi (I think I am struggling to remember his name...or anyone's here, these island names are tricky...And usually I do well with faces, but man. Again, I am not doing the best...oh well!!) He is half Tongan and half Cook Islander, so he has heaps of family here, it is a pretty big name. He actually lived here for 5 years till he moved to Tonga. Anyway, my companions name is Elder Nonu. He is half Samoan and also half Cook Islander, but he lived in Australia. He has heaps of family here too! Haha. It is interesting, he actually started in my last area, where I started. And one of the elders that left, Elder Adams, was transferred to there. XD

 Anyway, Elder Nonu is cool, but a bit quiet. He is the District Leader here, and that is about as high as our leadership goes. We have a senior couple that is pretty much our mission president, but that is about it. It is a totally different mission. We have pretty much no connection to New Zealand. They told me to buy a hat, and when I got here, I was told that I won't hardly wear it. And I have only worn it once. Meh. Anyway I will survive. If all of my stuff doesn't mold or I don't get eaten. Apparently everything molds here and there are heaps of bugs everywhere. We have lots of ants, though we have a few cockroaches and I had to kill heaps of big maggots this morning. There are a lot of geckoes in people’s houses, and there are so many chickens walking around. Whereas Whangarei had heaps of random cats, there are just so many chickens here. I even caught a chick the other day. There are also a lot of big dogs that all look similar. So fun!

There are also heaps of fruit trees. I thought everything grew in New Zealand, then I came here. My gosh. I am getting fruit that I haven't even heard of. My first day I got coconuts, star fruit, passion fruit, mangoes, papaya (or pawpaw as they say here), coco (sp?) (it is not chocolate), and avocado. Man it was heaps. I have drank out of a coconut every day I have been here. Members just machete one up for you. Haha we even have a machete for them. So it is cool!

We bike everywhere. And our bikes are quite dodgy. Weird tires, rusty parts, old. I dunno. Haha we don't have any lights on our bikes, so at night we just bike in the VERY dark night. Haha, it gets dark here fast. So much adventure! And the seat. Oh my goodness. Probably the most uncomfortable thing I have ever sat on. The day after I woke up, my legs were sore and my backside ripped to shreds. But I am getting used to it...hopefully.

 On Saturday we had a marriage baptism. It was fun. But in the other elder’s Branch. There are 3 branches here, and we cover two of them, but we hardly get out to the other one cause we only have push bikes and it is far. It is funny, almost everyone here has a motorbike or predominately a motor scooter. There are HEAPS of them. For them a trip round the island is mostly nothing. For our push bikes it takes a bit. And it is very frustrating cause there are no addresses or street names here. So all the directions are like "go past the food shop to the bus stop and it is the big house next to the freshly painted house by the coconut tree". It is really frustrating, but aw well.

We also went to the market on the island. Usually, in NZ, we aren't allowed, but here we can. It was super cool. They have the black pearls here that apparently are a big Cook Island thing. So I will have to see if I can find a cool one. I also want a ukulele....

Also, it is SO HOT. Man. I am just covered in a constant rainy blanket of sweat. When I take off my tie at the end of the day, it is soaked, THROUGH my collar. So it is how. We are the only island mission other than Niue that isn't allowed to wear Sulu (those formal skirt things that they usually have on those missionary island pictures) but we are seeing if we can. :)) The churches here are so weird. They are all out door complexes. So to get to anywhere you step outside. Our baptismal font is outside too. It is crazy!! 

Anyway...I THINK I have said everything I can think of in that surplus of information. But yes it is awesome but still hard work! :)))

Love y'alls!
