Aloha,

    It's been another great week! 

So every Tuesday we have a correlation meeting with our ward mission leader and after we were done we went to our car and it had tape all over it! We didn't even have to think about who it was.... It was a sister in our ward that is always teasing us and playing jokes... Looks like we will have to get her back now;) 

    Our investigators are all doing great! Alex is doing great and still set for his baptism! It will be on May 16 so we are excited about that! 

We had a really good lesson with Angela and Sister Lupe was with us and she asked Angela.... What are you waiting for? Jus get baptized. We love how bold she is! Angela responded well I guess there is no reason for me to not to... So we left her with the challenge to pray about it! We are hoping and praying that she will feel she is ready! 

     So this Friday we had a pretty funny lesson... A less active member who is returning to church asked us to come teach his kids and a family friend of theirs. So we were excited and when we got to the lesson it ended up just being the family friend(Jimmy) and this brother.  We shared the Restoration with Jimmy and through the whole lesson the less active brother was trying so hard to help teach the lesson but he had no idea what he was saying. He kept saying very false things and so we had to fix those and that happened the whole lesson. Ha the funniest one he said was about the priesthood. He said there are different ranks and that he was at the priesthood rank right now and then he will go to the sacrament rank then to secretary and then Bishop.  We had to explain that we don't see the priesthood as ranks and that each priesthood calling is important and has its specific duties. Over all we felt like the spirit was there and helped Jimmy understand and hopefully not too confused. 

    Well things are going great here in Kalihi! I am loving my mission. I'm so grateful for my chance to serve and be a missionary! I hope we can all share the gospel and I know that we receive blessing for sharing! Thank you all so much for all you have done for me!!
