Another great week,

       This week we had the opportunity to do lots of service! Just about everyday we had at least one service project to help either a member or one of our investigators..... We love having the chance to serve and it makes our week so much fun. We have seen so many miracles come through doing service. We have a part member family who didn't want the missionaries to teach their unbaptized children. So instead of pushing the gospel on them we just showed our love for them by serving them..... We were driving by and they were getting ready to do yard work so we stopped and helped them. After we were finished the kids asked if we would play basketball with them..... we took time to play with them and the parents saw that we weren't just there to baptize them and that we actually do care about them. Because we took time to serve them and spend that time with them it opened their hearts and they want us to teach the kids now! I know that our heavenly father touched them and I am glad that we were able to be there for them. 


         We had a great Halloween! The first part of our day was more service and at 5pm our mission president asked us to be together as a zone. We met up at one of the chapels and played sports and had a good time together. Being together brought our zone closer and helped us get to know our missionaries! Our zone is a great zone filled with awesome sisters and elders! 

     
    Well Saturday and Sunday were a little bit different than usual.... Elder Dzieman was sick.... So for all day Saturday we stayed inside and he rested. Come Sunday morning he was still not feeling good so We weren't able to make it to church. Our ward was worried about him so we kept getting calls and texts asking if we needed anything and we even had members just stop by and bring things to us. We love our ward and are very grateful for the support that they give to us! 


I am very grateful for my chance to be here in Hawaii and to serve the people here! We get to meet so many awesome people! I know that our father in heaven is opening the heart of people everywhere to hear this gospel! I want to hear any experiences that any of you have been having? And remember my challenge to you..... Share the gospel with a friend and I know that heavenly father will help you and bless you!  Thank you all so much for all that you have done for me! 


Love,


Elder Gale
