May 18, 2015

Aloha Everyone,


     Well this week was a great week for us! Our investigator Alex got baptized this Saturday! His baptism was so awesome and we had lots of support from our ward to help him! Alex was so happy for his baptism and so ready! Every time we would go over to teach them the kids would all want to wear our watches, so for the baptism I gave each of the 4 kids their own watch and they were so excited! We love this family and so happy for them! 

         This past Friday we went on splits with our ward mission leader and his dad. It was a great split! I was with his dad and we were able to see our investigator Robert. He was doing so great and very solid and then we lost contact with him.... well we were able to talk with him for about 10 minutes and at first he didn't really want us there. Right before we left he said I know I need you guys to keep coming back. He told us he had been struggling a lot with word of wisdom and that his life wasn't going so well but that just having us there with him made him feel so much better! He invited himself to church and accepted a blessing!  
     We also got to see our other investigator Pua, she has been struggling a lot lately too and we were able to give her a blessing as well and she said it made her feel a lot better! It was so cool to be able to get to see both of these investigators because we hadn't been able to for a while! 

         We found out about transfers this week... and I will be leaving. I'm going back to Makakilo to be in the Makakilo and Kapolei wards... so yes I already served in Makakilo and Kapolei ward was my 3rd ward that I was in, so i'm pretty excited to go back and see the ward again! I will be the zone leader for my last transfer. My new companion is Elder Miller. Don't know too much about him yet but I'm sure things will go great for us! I am excited for the new change and its crazy that it is my last transfer!! 

     Well things are going great for me here in Hawaii!! Loving my mission and loving serving the people here!! Thank you all so much for all you do for me I really appreciate it! Hope to hear from you all soon! Have a great week!
