Transfers!

Bonjour!

Dear family and friends,

My companion Elder Honema'u who is tongan was transferred!!!!  Elder Honema'u WENT TO THE CITY!!!  He is my favourite companion and it is very special that he went to the city, because he is the FIRST tongan to go! 

My next companion is.... ELDER PUNU FROM TAHITI

Tahiti is a very amazing, and they speak Tahitian and French.  So this transfer, I will be learning French.  Attached is his picture.  He is funny.

I am so excited for this transfer.  It is a time for me to work my hardest and continue to do the things that we need to do.  I am so excited and I know that it will be hard, but we need to keep enduring.

Something I've learned this week is this.  Success comes from effort, and effort comes from desire.  We need desire so we can do the things that we need to do.

LOVE YOU HEAPS

Christmas in July

Dear family and friends,

Something that some Australian's do is Christmas in July.  Because it is so cold, they celebrate it in a very small way.  However, our ward had a wonderful gathering.  We had a wonderful celebration of the usual snowflakes, Milo (Australian's hot chocolate), and food.  It was such an amazing sight to see, and there were so many people there!  

I love it, and it really reminded me of Christmas and the things we did in America.  

I hope everyone's week has been well.  It is very interesting how everything is happening too fast!  We are coming around the end of the month soon, Boy time flies!  

Please be safe this week,and continue to do the things that you need to do.

I want you all to know that I love you.  You are all examples toward me, and have helped me be who I am today.  

Here is a picture of my zone.  We have many powerful missionaries here, and I am so grateful that I could serve with all of them.

LOVE YOU HEAPS,

ELDER HAN

Consecration

Dear Friends and Families,

I went back to square one.  I realized that one thing that we need to constantly remember is to progress and not be complacent.  That is something I've learned this week. Especially considering about all the rules we have as missionaries.  However, I don't see them as limiting, but rather beneficial.  The mission is only ever the time that we will be blessed for waking up at 6:30.  That amazes me, and I have witnessed it especially this week.

As a District, we started having conference calls every morning at 6:10, and really committed ourselves to do everything in our power to accomplish what we need to do.  From that, we saw so many miracles!  Our district last week had 0 investigators with baptismal dates, but this week we were able to have 5 investigators who accepted baptismal dates.  I know that Heavenly Father will bless each and everyone of us if we do the small and simple things that may seem like it isn't corresponding with our lives.

I have a firm testimony that Jesus Christ is our Saviour, Redeemer of this world.  That Heavenly Father loves each and everyone of us and knows and cares for us.  I also know that as we follow Jesus Christ and learn more about what we can do, that we will be blessed.  Our relationships with our families, friends, and especially our Heavenly Father will increase and we will be able to have that peace and comfort that will help us with our every day life.

For those that are reading this that are not members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, I invite you to learn more about what we teach.  I promise that you will feel the need of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in your lives, and that you will see the improvement of your lives as well.  Please accept my invitation, because I know how much it can help you.  

I love you all so much, and I love being a Representative of Jesus Christ.

AIM High

Hello Friends and family,

There is something that I've learned especially this week is to Aim High and be committed to do whatever you want to do. 

It is amazing to see the miracles that happen when you actually believe that you can go higher than what you do.  It is so beneficial for this saying, only because we can improve so much more than if we aim to our abilities to our current time.

I just want to share with you that being on a mission is such a blessing, and that when we try our best no matter where we are (even not on a mission) we can achieve the miraculous.  

I know this is a short email, but I hope all of you are doing well.

I love you so much!

Elder Han

And remember  AIM HIGH!
