Aloha,

     This week was a big learning experience for me and one I will never forget! We saw so many miracles happen this week and it made me realize the love our father in heaven has for each and everyone of us no matter what we have done he still loves us and wants to bless us! 

      Wednesday was our Pearl Harbor service as a zone... Always fun to go and do service on the Battle ship. We had a really great service and then the guy that helps us when we are there(Kevin) took us to the Utah memorial site, really cool to see what is left of the ship.. cant see much other than the top sticking out of the water. After our service was over we had a very busy day planned! We got ready and went strait to meet up with one of our members. We went around in one of the housing areas with this member and visited 5 families......  These families were families we have been trying to see for quite a while and we have never been able to catch them home... well turns out that we got to see all 5! I realized how much we need the members to be involved in missionary work! We tried to visit these families on our own but for other reasons could not get in. But when this member was with us she was able to be super bold and tell them things that we as missionaries cant! Because of the member we got 3 new investigators and 4 return appointments! I know that this is the way our father in heaven wants us to do his missionary work! Members and missionaries together. 

       Our investigators are all doing pretty good. We weren't able to see Robert this week and we haven't  been able to contact him. We are hoping that things are still going good with him and maybe he just needed some time. We are still working with Pua, Angela and Alia on working towards their baptisms. We are really focusing on the 2 new families that we are starting to teach. They both have 2 unbaptized children and they want them baptized! Things are picking up here in our ward and area and we are getting lots of help from our ward! They are now getting on board with investigators and wanting to help them! We are getting calls almost daily from members asking if they can go out with us! 

       Well I am loving my mission and learning so much about myself and about this gospel! I truly know that this gospel is true and that our savior Jesus Christ is our loving brother and that our father in heaven loves us more than we can know! I am so grateful to be a missionary and for my chance to learn and to grow spiritually. Thank you all so much for all your love and support I really do appreciate all you have done for me!
