Jungle people


Some people in the jungle!

  First one of course is Dad and I, the second one is Sister Bernie Ferjeren in her own private jungle. From these trees and bushes she makes "wmaremares" which she made for us when we arrived her. She makes leis and many other things. She and her husband are some of the neatest people we've ever met. They may be poor, but I'm not sure they think about that as they serve everyone and share all they have. We have met in the day time and at night by lanterns at their home with the Sisters who are laboring patiently with "Brother" Ferjeren to help him overcome word of wisdom problems. He wants to be baptized so badly, and we all pray for that day.  There we have been fed the delicasies I've spoken of, fried bananas and spam, and original coconut pudding.  Sister has fed the missionaries in her home since 2006 when she was baptized every time they visit her.  We have been blessed by her hospitality.
