Our ward building in Lami. It is about 4 miles from our home in Suva. There are two wards that meet here...the Lami 1st and Lami 2nd Wards. We attend the the Lami 1st, where the meetings are completely in Fijian. Most wards are English speaking. Slowly, but surely, we are picking up some of the language....
A couple of weeks ago, John and Mere were baptized. Mere is 18 years old and the niece of the man on left, who is the bishop of the ward. John is married with 3 children. Both gave stirring testimonies of the Gospel after their baptisms. Also here is Elder Ford (in his white baptismal sulu) and Elder Poleka. 
Elder Poleka (the same one who had to be carried out of the bus window) playing the ukelele before the baptism. His companion, Elder Ford, played it during the baptismal service and sang a beautiful solo in Fijian and English. It was amazing!
Always cute kids around!

They have such cute babies! That's wonderful about the baptism! I think I would like to learn to play the ukulele. :)
I am glad the baptism went well. ukulele would be fun to learn, lot smaller than a guitar which is hard to play with someone with small hands.
