Manurewa Week 2

Kia ora everyone! 

This week was pretty good! Elder Borders and I were able to do a few really good visits with our most progressing investigators. I was able to give him some feedback on how he did but I feel that I'm not qualified enough to be giving advice. I'm still a "fresh as" missionary in comparison to the other missionaries around. But it feels good to be in the position I am. It keeps me on my toes! My first time in the ward was yesterday and it seems very welcoming! I am less worried that I will gain 50 pounds, its not near as bad as I thought. And I am working out and exercising a lot more than when I was home so hopefully it will counter the weight gain. But South Auckland is not as nice as Ngaruawahia. We can't really do anything as soon as it gets dark unless we have appointments. And everyone works until about 3 so the work is hard. But we do our best. 

The mission is kind of going by exponentially. Every week goes faster than the last. It kind of scares me! I might blink and have to leave New Zealand.. But this week we have a general authority coming to our mission to tour it. Ian S. Ardern of the Seventy will be at our zone conference and will be going around the mission to each of the zones. It will be pretty cool! Not much else is happening this week. I hope everyone's week is super eventful!

Arohanui,
Elder Green
