Yes I know the missionary life is a tough one but someone has to go to the islands as well as the other countries and God has found favor with my team to send us to Fiji. We are preparing and doing much cultural study on the people of the island. It seems a very hospitable culture and family oriented. There are a few Fijians on the Kona base and a couple who have just returned that are sharing with us and helping us to be prepared and not offend right off the bat! We are learning the do's and don'ts of island life and the importance of our unity as a team. There will be much interaction between the children and us and that leads to relationship with the rest of the family. The Fijians respect the wisdom of the elders and the preciousness of the young. In between are the young adults who work to train up the young and learn from the wise. What a concept! I was going to share the last couple weeks but will wait till I have more time. Until next time, May you be covered with the dust of your Rabbi..........
