Well this week has been a crazy week! We ate dinner with
our investigator family on Tuesday and it went great, we got to share a
message with them and thought it was going great! We got a call from the wife
who is a member and she told us that the husband is feeling over whelmed with
all the attention that the ward has been giving him and she doesn't want us to
come over till next month..... So that wasn't good! He was our only
investigator that was really making progress!
Our other investigator named Robin asked
us not to come back till November because she is really busy so there went another.
Then our other investigator that was supposed to be baptized this past Saturday
fell off the face of the earth! We haven’t seen or heard from him in almost a
month so all three of our main investigators dropped. We have had a great week for
finding though! We have found 4 new potential investigators just this week so
hopefully we can get some appointments set up with them!
We went to Honolulu this past Saturday
to hear from Elder Holland and it was awesome! We all got to talk with him for
a while and shake his hand! He was so nice and it was awesome to hear him
speak! He is a great speaker and we all learned so much from him! He speaks
with so much power and authority that you can’t help but listen!
This Sunday was crazy as well! We go to
sacrament meeting and none of our investigators show up. As we were walking out
of the meeting there was a non-member boy, that is 18 who just came to
sacrament meeting, we taught him for an hour and twenty minutes and he seemed
way interested. It was a miracle that he just decided to come to church all by himself!
We have had very interesting and crazy
week as you can see but we have seen lots of miracles as well!! We went on
exchanges twice this week and for the first I stayed in my area with Elder
Kniff, everyone that we planned to go see was home! It was so awesome and the
first time that has happened! We were able to talk with a guy named Gordon he
is so nice and very open! He has met with missionaries in the past and he told
us that he really missed having the missionaries over! Then the second
exchange for the week I went to Waialua with a new Elder and that was very hard
but I learned a lot! I learned that it is a lot easier to work when you get in
and know the area! This new elder just doesn’t know his area that great and he
has been here almost 1 transfer. He will be a great missionary he just had no
idea what to do...... We were able to do service and see some of their investigators
and it turned out to be a great learning experience!
Hawaii is awesome and I love it here! It is
starting to rain a lot more! This means that the rainy season is getting
here!!?? But on the good side the weather is still about 75 degrees. Well I
love all of you guys and hope to hear from you soon!
Love Elder Gale
