Sweet and Short - April 29, 2019

Sorry Ive got like no time this week, but Uman and Chuuk have been amazing. Im learning Chuukese pretty well, I can talk and teach and understand most of what people say. The people here really are amazing in every way. They are very open and loving and always invite us to eat with them.
I really know that this work is true, and christ is my savior. Trust in him and he will bless us. I love you all and am sorry i cant respond to all your emails. I love you all.

Ran Allim!! Im finally back into Weno and get to email! The past few weeks have been amazing and I really dont know where to start. Im just gonna talk about food today.

They pick it and then shave the outside off so they can kinda steam it in a big pot. The stuff that comes out of the pot is called kon. Kon is kinda like a boiled potato, I like it. They then take the kon and put it on a log and smash it with a thing called a puo, which is like a hammer made out of coral. The Kon becomes kinda like dough at that point they just eat it like that, it isnt that good. Now for the last, and the worst thing made by mankind.

What a World - Aug 4, 2019

My goodness its been so long since I last emailed i dont know where to start . Ive left uman, there were tears. I miss all of those members so much and am so grateful for the time I had with them. Now though I get to stay on a beautiful island called Udot. Its known to be really clean and beautiful because all the people work together to keep the island nice. Its full of really nice houses, big gardens, and wonderful people. All of them are so nice to us and treat us with great love. Lately Ive been just focusing on learning how to love people as soon as I see them. Its helped me be just so happy the whole time that im walking around and gives me a great desire to talk to people. It helped me the most to see their divine potential, and seeing that makes you want to work so hard to help them get there. I love you all and appreciate all yall do for me. Remember whats important in your life and youll always be happy. Elder Peterson
