Lets take it back to December 7th, 1980! When the song "Billie Jean" was the #1 hit!
It was also the day the Tongan Saints in the Bay Area, mainly Millbrae and San Bruno formed the Millbrae II Ward, later known as San Francisco 3rd and San Francisco 4th; and from there came the San Francisco 2nd Fijian Branch. This past weekend, October 22-24, was a weekend filled memories and laughter. Tears and joy. And the Spirit of the Lord was with us the whole time.
The youth of the Millbrae II Ward from 1980 to 1992 planned an event that would bring the joy and memories of the THEN to the NOW! And I do commend them very highly for what a wonderful job they did.
Their plans followed as:
Friday Oct 22 - Formal Dance w/ Introductions @ The Clarion Hotel
Saturday Oct 23 - Luncheon at 12 @ Millbrae II Ward Building "Where it all Began"
- "Flashback to the 80s" Dance @ Culture Center
Sunday Oct 24 - Sacrament (Ward Attended)
- "Tears & Laughter" Fireside @ Millbrae Chapel

I hope they call me on a Mission
Just recently, about a week ago, the San Francisco California East Tongan Stake of Zion had its Stake Conference. All the events were held at the Menlo Park, Valpaiso Chapel. The events included:
- Stake Dance; Friday Night
- Priesthood Session at 2:30, Adult Session at 6 pm Saturday
- General Session at 2 pm Sunday
Stakes have Stake Conference twice every year. The theme for Stake Conference this time was "Missionary Work."
Doctrine and Covenants 18 : 10, 15-16
"10 Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God;
15 And if it so be that you should labor all your days in crying repentance unto this people, and bring, save it be one soul unto me, how great shall be your joy with him in the kingdom of my Father!
16 And now, if your joy will be great with one soul that you have brought unto me into the kingdom of my Father, how great will be your joy if you should bring many souls unto me!"
During the Stake Conference events, I can tell you that the Spirit of the Lord was totally felt; except for when me and Ana thought we could do the Old Time Waltz dance and decided to try to do it with Peninsula 3rd...can we both say FAIL! Lol. Other than that, Priesthood session was great, as well as the Saturday night session.
The Sunday session on the other hand was; lets just say it was "Sugar in the morning!" The spirit on Sunday was amazing! President Havili expressed a lot, but what stick out to me the most was him saying that paying tithing was not about the money, its about the faith that the tithe payer has.
But I really enjoyed Sister Lauti's talk, shes from the San Francisco-Oakland California Mission, and i quote, "We had a family home evening one Monday night and the activity was to go crabbing, or in Tongan, Tau Paka. When we got to Golden Gate, our bate or Mounu was two tilapias, or Lapila. We hooked the bate to the net and lowered it, it wasn't even a whole minute a seal or Sila appeared with the two tilapias flapping its arms making noise like it was laughing at us. We pulled up the net to see if we got any crab; as you guessed, we didn't catch any. My husband than told me to bring the two canned fish cans or Kapa Ika that i brought for lunch to use as bate. My husband hooked to the net, and lowered. He let the net sit for about four to five minutes and then pulled it up. In the net was so much crab! My grand kids and me were so happy!"
Sister Lauti used her experience as an analogy for Missionary Work, Change the bate or Mounu if you must. Don't always use the same bate to bring others unto Christ. It might be too old and maybe id doesn't even work.
I do testify to you all that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only true church on the face of this earth. I know that President Monson is the true Prophet of God. I know that God lives and that if we keep his commandments, we'll be able to live with him again. I know that Book of Mormon and the Scriptures are true words of God. I will serve a mission. I love you all. I testify of all these things. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
