Remay was baptized this week so boooo yahhh!! I was a littttttlllle frustrated this week because RJ (Remay's brother) backed out of the baptism on Friday night just before the baptismal interview. We went to their house with the elders and Sister Albert pulled me and Sister Fehoko to the side and explained to us that RJ wasn't ready to make that kind of commitment and that he would be baptized once the rest of the family would be baptized! So I kinda just wanted to be like "Soooo do you all wanna get baptized tomorrow orrrrr?" Geez I wish people would just understand haha!
But I'm counting my many blessings because Remay was still baptized and I'm not sure I've seen someone happier than her as she got out of the font! She was dripping wet and ran up and jumped on me and was so so happy! Then as she bore her testimony to the ward she started to cry as she thanked me and Sister Fehoko for teaching her about how she can follow Jesus! It was so stinkin cute.
Soooo what else is new?
1.I got a new house this week! It's white and it's like living in a mini temple!
2. I found THE biggest dead spider this morning my bed! (at least it was dead, right?)
3. I learned how cut open coconuts like a pohnpeian!
4. I'm still in the process of learning how to hula.

Sending loooots of love from Pohnpei!
LOVE. Sister Russell
