Played Chess

So this week was pretty cool! We were invited to go to one of my investigators from my first areas wedding this last Friday!! We did a split and me and Elder Smith rode our bikes there.  So it’s official.  It takes 20 minutes on bike to get to my first area! And her baptism is tonight so we will be able to go again to support her! 

 Also, Tomorrow Heifara (from Tahaa) will be sealed to her parents so we will be able to go to that as well! So yeah this week was good. 

 We are having a baptism coming up this next Saturday with Oneil (our ten year old investigator who’s mom in a chief in the police) and we had to move our baptism for this Saturday for sometime in June.  I have yet to fix one for my birthday! :) We will see hahaha but all is well in Pamatai!

And drunk guy wanted to play chess with me yesterday! 

 And also this week I was able to go on a split with Elder Fareata at Tavararo, so I broke out my old trusty bike! And I got bike butt all over again.  I don’t have time for that! But it was really good the people are super nice, and they make us banana crepes! So I don’t complain!

 Well anyway this week was great next week will be better! I love this gospel! I love the power and freedom it gives to everyone! People see the difference, people can see the change! Our job is just to find the people who are ready to make that change! And then help them do it! With the enabling power of Christ and the Gospel everything is possible! I know that I am a child of God and he has sent me here!

Love you all so so much

Pamatai

Well I’m staying in Pamatai with Elder Doit for another 6 weeks.  I did the math and by then I will have served with a French companion for 12 months of my mission. Wow.

 But in other news I passed my driving test with flying colors, We got in the car and drove around the parking lot, then drove up and down a really big hill four times though a round about and into the parking lot! And then he asked me "Think your good", and  I just looked at him and answered  "hope so!" and I passed!!! It was so much easier to get permission here! Don’t worry I already celebrated! And so yeah this week was a win! (Elder Moller told me that his new name was now the Stig or Elder Stig I guess  (you have to be a Top Gear fan to understand)… - Kelly)

 Also this next Monday I have a baptism in Taapuna and a new convert coming from Tahaa to be sealed with her family! I’m so excited to see the lives progress of these people I love! I love the people of Pamatai and I am pretty sure to pull off another 7-month area here, but its great!

 I also learned that the new missionaries being called to Tahiti only have to stay in the MTC for 6 weeks! It’s a big change, but I don’t regret the 12 weeks I spent with some of my best friends!

 Thank you for the love you all send, and know I love you all,

The love of God is real and it is all around.

1 John Chapter 4

 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

19 We love him, because he first loved us.

Happy Happy Mother's Day

Happy, Happy Mother’s Day

 Iaorana my family and friends.

Skype was so great, and family I’m sorry you watched me eat that start fruit for like five minutes, I thought it was frozen on your side too!! hahaha.

This week was good as it was Hititua's baptism this past Saturday and we ate more corndogs after!  A win win! Hititua is the first member in his family and will help us teach his parents and his brother the gospel! Other than that this week was pretty normal.

 The Mission is starting up the missionary concerts again, so we will be meeting up with all the missionaries on the island and practicing every week.It’s really fun to be able to see everyone!

 Next week I’ll have lots of news about the transfer this week and how my driving test goes. I’m sorry this email lacks information but Ill try to find some good pictures! I’m doing good and I love you all!!

And have a good week!

 Fun Story: so when I started my mission during the 170 anniversary of the Church in Tahiti I wrote in 3 books of Mormon and we passed them out to random people.  Well, a year later and two areas after I have one of our investigators tell me he has a Book of Mormon with my name in it! I wrote that over a year ago!

No elephantitus for me

Hello everybody, hahah I never really know how to start these emails.

This week was good! But first things first, don’t be alarmed because I have my Elephantitus medicine at home ready for me to take tonight so I will not come home looking like an elephant. If you don’t know what elephantitus is, probably don’t look it up, it’s tragic.  You swell up like an elephant it’s  awful!! But I’m safe now!

This week just went by so fast I don’t even know if anything that amazing has happened!  Same old stuff.  Oh yes I do have a demand, I’d like you to pray, and If you don’t I’m asking you to start.  Just think of me and my manual driving skills. Thanks!  I have a test coming up this Thursday and with all my experience (3 times) I might fast this week. No, but really, having a French person yelling at you while you are driving is now on my list of things I never want to do. Awful. He was using verbs that I’m pretty sure they don’t teach until the doctorate degree in French. How is someone supposed to focus on chickens, children, dogs, cats, scooters, dumb bikers, tractors, birds, and other cars when you have to change a stupid stick thing every second?  I’m fasting. 

 Well anyway we have a Baptism coming up this Saturday. He is my favorite and his name is Hititua and he is 10 and he calls me his godfather, I’ll accept that title! Actually I don’t know what that means, as the only godfather I know is in Harry Potter. Seems pretty cool!

Well my family I’ll talk to you Sunday!!

Happy Happy Mothers day

Love you all my friends and family!!!!

Have a good week.

Love your missionary friend,

Elder Moller
