BUT Sometimes it gets hard I'll be honest, imagine being in a country where NO ONE Speaks your Language! Its hard sometimes, but I know the Lord prepared a way for me to be here and I wont turn back now! I Love all of the people here and I wont give up!
I know this is a short letter, but just remember the lord will Never Forget you WHOEVER you are.
He is AWARE of you!

Hello Everyone!
So this is it. My last Pday before I head out. I haven't even started packing yet. I want to avoid that as much as possible lol. I am so sad to be leaving this place where I have learned and grown so much. I will forever cherish my experiences here and I will forever remember the people that I've met! But I am so excited to see what the Lord has in store for me as I start my next journey in life. I am excited to apply what I've learned into my life!! I will continue being a missionary! I am also so excited to see you all and catch up on what you are up to!
This last week as a missionary has been AWESOME! I have enjoyed every second being out doing missionary work!! I've been trying to stay exactly obedient and not waste any second of the Lord's time!! We had a great week and taught a powerful lesson with Blakely!! SHE HAS COMMITED TO BAPTISM FOR FEB 23rd!! MIRACLLEEE! I AM SO EXCITED FOR HER!!! She is super prepared and ready!! But anyway, I gtg I still have some work to do before heading back! I love you all and will see you soon!
God is good. He lives and loves you!!
Love Sister Tupuola!

Hey President
This week has been cool, we had the opportunity to witness a baptism for Jennifer and Ricardo last Wednesday.
Also working with Elder Gamolo has been a blessing he truly knows how to work effectively and he is such a great teacher to me and I have been learning a lot from him. Now we are just in the process of getting the ward to really help us in our efforts with getting referrals so we can have stronger ward support. It is such a miracle to see that when we change the way we do things for the better, more better results occur!
Thanks President for all that you do!
Marami Salamat po talaga!
But yes, that's whats going on over here in the Missionary work I'm involved in. Other than that, yes there are some times I feel I am on top of the world over here, and then there are times where I am like Why did the lord want me to be here.... but The Lord always hears my silent prayers I'm telling you. He always comforts me when times I feel inadequate, I think of the scripture
Doctrine and Covenants section 1 -
24 Behold, I am God and have spoken it; these commandmentsare of me, and were given unto my servants in their weakness, after the manner of their language, that they might come to understanding.
25 And inasmuch as they erred it might be made known;
26 And inasmuch as they sought wisdom they might be instructed;
27 And inasmuch as they sinned they might be chastened, that they might repent;
These scriptures give me hope that through repentance I can change my old ways each new day God gives me. Even though sometimes I just want to rest and sleep all day. hahah But the Lords work is important, and I'm so glad he understands me perfectly even when my companion and I don't always see eye to eye. When I pray to the Lord He always gives me to comfort to get along with my companion.... The Lord is putting me through a refiners fire really, its burning hot now. I'm stepping outside of my comfort zone and sometimes I get so stressed, but I have never learned so much in my life and I am definitely growing in wisdom and maturity over here.....
