Elder Vusoniceva has been an AP (Assistant to the President) for three transfers. The tradition of this mission is for the AP's to go back out into the field for at least one transfer before returning home at the end of their mission. Elder Vu has been such an excellent and well-loved AP, President Schmutz wanted to take him, with Elder Mejos (the other AP), the Ernstroms, and us to dinner as kind of a farewell and "thank you" to Elder Vu for his hard work. This focused Elder really wants to serve in Siquijor - a tiny island off the coast of Negros - to open that island to the preaching of the gospel of Jesus Christ there before returning home.
Elder Vu is from Australia - a Tongan who hopes to attend BYU on a rugby scholarship.
We hope to see him again in Utah after his mission.
