We've only heard from Matthew once in the past few weeks. He says he is enjoying his time on Tonoas, a small island that is a boat ride from Chuuk, the main island. He and his companion Elder Thomsen are working hard to find those searching for the Gospel.
Brother and Sister Grimshaw, a missionary couple that watches over the missionaries on several Chuuk islands, took some recent photos and posted them on Facebook.
Nice to see Matthew and his companion, the house they live in and the church on the island.

The house on the left is Matthew's new house that was just completed. The old missionary home is on the right. I don't know if they use it any longer.

| This is early morning seminary ~ looks more like Primary. The Seminary teacher is instructing below. He is a former branch president. They all leave their shoes at the door. |
This is so awesome! Thanks for sharing! You look well, Matt. I'm sure you are enjoying your service. What a wonderful opportunity to share the gospel with the people there! Sis. Bingham
