May the ponge be with you 7-24-17

chip chip cheerio! iaorana te mau fenua ia marite et farani et te mau vahi tahi 

this morning i woke up at 4 to go hike. worth it

as you can see. im so happy we did that, i felt like my old self just hanging out unsocially in the mountains of logan hahaha and tahiti TAHITI what is this place? i dont know that ill ever get used to the beauty

 some of the 4 am crew 

alors. this week was good and we got invited to do everything in the books. really when tahitians love you they love you and they actually give you their entire lives. we had a kareoke night, a night at the carnival where we ate about 5 churros each (and we aint talkin no measly floppy churro, these are tahitian nutella stuffed churros) and we got to try on spongebob shirts as shown 

bob le ponge looks good on me 

CHURROS AND BAES 

i promise we did missionary work also. theres a girl named jenny who we are teaching and we gave her a stuffed bear so she could remember to say her prayers. jenny has a rough life but is one of the happiest 10 year olds ive ever met, she doesnt stop moving or playing and reminds me a lot of alicia my sissy 
she told us a story this week that really got to me. her dog was super sick and she thought he was gonna die, her other dog was already killed for money so she was so sad. but then she saw that little bear through her tears, hugged it tight and said the first very sincere prayer of her life to save her dog. 
he got up and ran around within 30 minutes 

as you can see my life is good. better than good. :) God has opened my heart and my eyes through this adventure. i encourage all of you to take part in this work wherever you may be. pray for an opportunity to stretch your faith by sharing the gospel with someone, keep your eyes open. be a christlike person, a doer of good and go find someone for the missionaries to teach :) they are under your noses 

spencer quote of the week: 

"maitai roa, sr spencer. maitai roa." (pats herself on the back at the same time). maitai roa means very good. this is her regular self encouragement 

DANG IT I LOVE YOU 

bye 

ps you may have received the video. yes we ate a cat. i dont know why
