e na bwakara

Mauri Ngkami,

This last week we had another baptism! This kid is awesome. 17 years old. His parents were baptized last year but he was on an outer island when his parents got baptized. He got baptized in the ocean because our font won't fill up, the pump is broken. It still went, so that was good.

Just started reading Jesus the Christ again. I will let you know some things I learn from that.

New phrase for you all: "e na bwakara" ;  it means, "it is all we have, but it is enough" or something like that.

Below is pictured one of the greatest knockoffs in the history of knockoffs: Sharpie now becomes "Skerple"

Tiabo, 

Elder Farner

P.S. Thanks for the package!

My thoughts on conference:

One of the messages I got was the blessings that come many years afterwards. I liked President Nelson's talk about Brother Cox and how years later there was the blessing of choosing him to be stake patriarch. Then there was the story from I think Renlund's talk about the heart transplant patient who later helped do the temple work for the person who died.

Another message was the importance of the Spirit. Good messages. Very important.

I think the combining of the Elders and High Priests is cool. It’ll be fun to do that later in life after the mission.

We should have a baptism this week. T. is the son of recent converts who is 17. He has a testimony that the church is true and he is a little quiet but he is a little more open than he used to be. Awesome

Miss you all.

Love,

Elder Farner

How was your Gen conference experience? Pretty awesome announcements. I haven't seen it yet, but I might see it this weekend with our branch.

That couple that got baptized now have callings and the husband is a priesthood holder now!

We have a teenager named Tebaakaro who can get baptized this coming weekend if he passes his interview!

I haven't been transferred as far as I know, so we will see on Wednesday if there is anything new or exciting happening in my area.

Have a great week everyone!

I tangiringkami!
