Going Tongan

As most of you know.
Blake & I currently reside 
in the Lone Star State.

I feel at home here -
which is good.
 I've discovered moving is always better when
it's with your best friend, and better half.

We've gone to a different ward every sunday.
two of those being Tongan. 
WE LOVE TONGAN WARDS.

main reason:
They love to Sing!
These people sing. and they sing loud. 
and there is nothing I love more
than to hear church hymns sung
from the depth of the soul.
The Spirit is SO strong when they sing. 
they don't even use hymnbooks 
or a piano.
it's impressive.
& i don't even know what they're saying.
but i LOVE IT.

fortunately most of the talks have been in ENGLISH.
I wouldn't even care if they weren't.
I honestly go for the music and the spirit it brings.

& a quote to send you on your way -

“Music can enrich your life. It can edify and inspire you and help you draw closer to Heavenly Father. Music has a profound effect on your mind, spirit, and behavior."
- For the Strength of Youth



Happy Sunday!
