Lavaka Latu, who goes by "Vaka", has always been a young man who would strive for excellence in all that he pursued. For instance, he always had his eye on sports; particularly football. He became a wonderful football player and athlete both on and off the field. Another area in which he reached excellence was a goal that he made when he was a little kid sitting in Primary which was to serve a 2year church mission. He would be the kid that would always raise his hand when the class was asked if they were going to serve a mission one day. Currently, Elder Latu is in the Provo, Utah, MTC, training to serve in the Anchorage, Alaska Tongan Speaking Mission. He reports to Alaska on October 31st. Elder Latu was raised in a family of 8 total siblings. He is number 4 of the bunch. His ultimate goal is to be a great example to not only his siblings but to all of his family and friends. Reaching this point of receiving his Eagle is just another area of excellence that he has achieved.
