  WEEK 3: DISCIPLESHIP MEANS ALIGNMENT Malo e lelei everyone! WHATS GOING ON EVERYBODY! I hope you all had a great week, like me! So much to share about this this week, but we have officially started learning the Tongan Langauge! I am going to be honest, I came in with my ego so high thinking that I knew so much Tongan and that it was so easy, but um no your girl was humbled real quick. We’ve started learning how to introduce ourselves and our companions. There I was feeling confident and then got humbled right quick.

Crazy & Heartfelt Experiences Week 1: Crazy and Heartfelt experiences Malo e lelei everyone, Its your girl Sister Moala here! Just wanted to start this email by saying that I hope all had a good week and are having a great day! This email might be long email but I hope you all will learn from it! With that being said lets get in to it! I left Utah Wednesday, and let me just tell you it was not easy. For me I have always been a home body and never really liked to go out unless it was with certain friends or for family events. And also I have never traveled by myself or been outside the country. I was afraid of leaving all my life, loved ones, really what I know of home, but I was reminded by my mom that its not about me. I have this amazing opportunity to serve the next 18 months doing the greatest and important work which is Gathering Israel! I love my mom if you couldn't tell and thank her for that simple reminder! My flight was connecting in Huston. Now this is where my craz...
