October 15 Letter

Note: Aaron's current assignment is on the island of Romanum.  Interestingly, there is no electricity on this island, other than from solar panels, etc.  So most of his communication (except for this e-mail) has been through regular mail.  Aaron took this picture of his house (right next to the church) when he was first arriving on the island.

 

My Family!

Haha! Wow so much has happened its awesome! Grandma and Grandpa! I'm so excited for you guys. :) That is so wonderful. Senior missionaries are so great. I'm so glad that you get to do it. ( and grandma thank you so much for your letters. :) They make me happy. :) ) (Congrats to Denise too! That's exciting. I got your letter too. :) )

Oh man the change in age! When I found out last Sunday night I was so extremely excited. My thoughts went straight to all of my friends who are suddenly available to go! Oh man so awesome. They have been in my prayers so they will know what Heavenly Father wants them to do right now. And all of my cousins! Oh man the numbers will increase in our family soon! So awesome. :) There are going to be so many more missionaries now. Heavenly Father is really accelerating the work right now. So awesome. I pray for you all. :)

Speaking of accelerating the work! I will have my first two baptisms this Saturday (20th)! We met Patrick the first day I got to Romanum. So sweet. JS is awesome too. Its been so fun teaching them. 

Elder Sofele, my new companion, is so great! He has helped me so much with the language. Mostly because he forces me to teach, and its awesome! Heavenly father has helped me out so much. I have grown so much in the language in the past 3 weeks. I can really understand a lot more and I can work my way through lessons. But holy cow have so much farther to go. Its fun though!

Romanum is awesome! I attached a picture of arriving to my new home. That's my little house on the beach. :) SO awesome. I have eaten a LOT of fish. So awesome! The members fish a lot and always give us one. I love it. :)

Zone conference today was super great. President Mecham is so great.

I have sent out a couple letters so be looking for  those! Thank you so much! I love you guys so much. I have such a great family. I am doing really well here. Thank you so much for you prayers. :) I need it. And I feel them. :) I love you all so much! This work is awesome and it is really accelerating. I love you all so much!

Family I love you. :)

Love, Elder Walters
