Anywho, heaps of things are different here in New Zealand. I would tell you but i dont have that much time. The work is going wonderfully. We have two progressing investigators, and many more investigators. It is hard to visit them all regularly. Most of them work heaps(<--New Zealand Saying) so it is hard to get a hold of them all the time. One of our investigators is an Anglican minister. He has HEAPS of really really hard questions. We will teach a lesson then spend three weeks explaining the doctrine in detail. It is hard work. He says he is on a journey to find the true gospel of Jesus Christ. We are working hard with him. We sometimes have to tell him to take some things on faith. We also have a progressing investigator who is very excited about the gospel. She also has lots of questions about the next life, which we sometimes cannot answer. I have a new companion! His name is Elder Viamatahau! I call him Via for short. He is from Tonga! Isn't that awsome! I feel like Elder Groberg in "The Other Side of Heaven". He likes to play vollyball and is fairly good (though he won't admit it). We love to play touch Rugby. Oh yea, did I tell you that peple over here are obsessed over Rugby? The United States has a team. They are horrible. The New zealand team is like the best in the world. They are called the All Blacks. I love New Zealand! It is so beautiful here, and the people are incredibly nice. It rains HEAPS! but we stay dry. . . sometimes. There was this one day when it was raining by the bucket loads. Elder Fallis(my last companion) and I were Finding (door-knocking) when a lady, we didn't even know, let us in for Milo (hot chocolate) and biscuits (cookies). It was awsome! Most people here are like that, genuinely NICE. We even got invited in for beer once. LOL!!! We had to refuse :) Well life is good here.
