So today for emails I'm just going to send heaps of pictures! But just a quick update, everything here in the work is going so awesome. We had 4 investigators at church this last week, and one of them is this nineteen year old kid named Deme. He lives with a member family and he has committed to being baptized on the 19th of this month. He was a little shy to get to church and we found out that it was because he didn't have a sulu and white shirt so we fixed that real quick and got an old sulu from the flat and one of my white shirts to give to him for church and BOOM he has been there the last two weeks. On top of that we had a few less actives we have been working with come as well so it was just a great week. We also had stake conference this week which was awesome. All the wards here are so big and awesome and similar in alot of ways to wards at home so stake conference felt like a real stake conference. Man it was fun! Anyways for pictures.. THE NICEST SET OF STAIRS YOU WILL EVER SEE!  We tried to fix one of our less actives stairs a few weeks ago and failed miserably. Man we felt so bad so this time we called in the big guns (a few Fijians in our ward) and made this amazing set of completely sturdy stairs! hahaha And then on Sunday these less actives came to church as a family for the first time! #BuildingStairsandTheirTestimonies

And this week was my first MLC (Mission Leadership Council)! So for this meeting President brings in all the zone leaders, and sister training leaders with the AP's to the mission office to council about problems the mission is facing and the ways we can become better leaders. Man it was an amazing meeting. It was just so amazing to be able to council with some of my role models in the mission. Such an uplifting experience!

EXCHANGES WITH MY MOM IN THE MISSION The one and only Flying Filipino Elder Alonzo! hahaha Man we had a good time. It was a bit different this time proselyting in a big city instead of being stuck together for 6 months on a remote island but hey we make it work! This is him taking a selfie while I'm tracting at someone's door. #WORK
On a more spiritual note, I just left my last area about  4 weeks ago now.  Great news today Loatta, one of the girls we were teaching there, just got baptized this last week! (Shout out to my son Elder Giacalone) And in even bigger news, probably one of the biggest miracles of my mission, Mala (The guy that is completely deaf) stepped into the waters of baptism last week as well to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints! Man this church is so true and God prepares a way for everyone to hear this gospel even if it's all written on a whiteboard. I love you all! Have a great week!
