This week was really great, it went by so fast!
The highlight was Drisela being baptized and confirmed. She has been such a blessing in our lives.
My favorite part was right before she went into the font, she gave Sister James and I the biggest hug and said "Oh I poakpoakeikumwa" ( oh I love you two). My heart was so full of joy, I couldn't stop smiling. It was crazy trying to get the baptism organized, and it definitely didn't go smoothly, but it was PERFECT.
I had the opportunity to speak about the restoration at the baptismal service, and for the first time I really enjoyed speaking in Pohnpeian and felt pretty confident. Not confident in myself of course, but confident in my Heavenly Father's divine help, which he did in fact give me.
I love Drisela so much and her baptism brought me such joy, and I know that what I feel is just a fraction of the way Heavenly Father feels about her.
On a side note, for the first time in 3 months I took a hot shower this week and it was the cleanest I've felt in my entire life:) Also we decided to go out for breakfast this morning and I got blueberry pancakes and it felt so much like home for like 2 seconds I thought I was in America!
Love you all,
Sister Milne
