Bonjour tout let monde!

There wasn't a ton that went down this week, so sorry for the kinda short email haha.  For the most part we just do a ton of contacting, and try and reteach as many of the people we contact as we can.  It's hard the work here, but we just do our best.  My least favorite thing that I hear here is Kaikai Meitai! It means bon appetite in Marquesan.  They eat soo much food here...I don't know how in the world they do it haha.  But I swear it's gonna be the death of me.  

On Wednesday we had a family dinner over at Louis' house, after a super busy day.  Elder Isabell was like dead tired after dinner, but he wanted to teach the lesson anyways.  It was super funny, he was dead tired and teaching a message that made no sense, in super bad French.  Louis on the other hand, was gone.  Out cold hahaha.  That left Louis' wife, a super nice mama, with French as her third language, trying her best to make some sort of sense of the lesson.  And then there was me, just cracking up hahaha it was so funny.

On Thursday we ended up teaching 2 teeming Jehovah's, how do you say that...Jehovahs witnesses?  And 4 Adventists...That one I have no idea what the English equivalent is.  But all of the temiogn and adventists are super stubborn, so those lessons were super tough haha.  

Friday was a super cool day.  Except for lunch.  We went over to Sr R's house, because her husband who had been training in France for 6 months just got back.  he made us Fafaru, probably the  most disgusting food on the planet.  They take a rotten fish, and let it sit for a week or so.  Then they take a fresh fish, and pour the juice from the rotten fish on it, and let is soak in for a couple days.  Super super gross, and it smells like straight rotten eggs.  But supposedly it's pretty popular in Tahiti.  After that we had a soiree familial in Taipivai.  Our DMB took us over there, but he took the whole family too, so there wasn't enough room in the truck.  So he threw some seat in the back of the truck, and we rode on that all the way over the mountain haha it was super fun.  The family night also went super good, we had a bunch of amis and inactive that came.  

Church also went super good, we had the primary program.  There were 7 amis there!  After church we had like a huge feast, and someone brought an enormous chocolate cake.  And we completely devoured all of it, all of the food was completely gone haha super funny.

Well I guess it wasn't that short after all hahaha...But I love you all, have a great week!
