P.S---- Only one more email! CRAZY!!!!

Aloha Everyone!!

     Well we had another crazy and exciting week!!! Sorry again that I didnt email yesterday... Elder Miller and I had to go to a Meeting in Honolulu with some of the other missionaries! So today was our pday instead of yesterday.

     Things are getting so crazy for me here!!! Can Not believe that i will be home next week!! Cant wait to see all of you soon and catch up about how you are all doing! We have been keeping busy and seeing so many miracles in our missionary work! I am loving my mission, what is left of it of course!! Our zone is doing so great together and working hard!! So far this month our zone has been blessed with seven people who have been able to come into the gospel and get baptized!! We love seeing our zone have great success and get to see all these wonderful people come into this gospel! For us in our area we had a really cool experience this week!! We were walking around in our area contacting people and we decided that we needed to knock on a door so we did and Kevin answered the door... Well Kevin is a really cool guy! His son in law served his mission right here in Hawaii and then married his daughter... we were able to set up a time to come back and meet the whole family and had a really awesome message! Turns out that the son in law and his wife just went through the Temple and that they have been working on sharing the gospel with her parents! Was awesome that we got to meet them and help bring the gospel to them!!

        We were able to have another district activity where we helped each other in our areas and it was awesome! We ended up having lots of member here this time to come with us! Each missionary was able to split with at least one member and so we got to cover a lot more people!! We were able to see about 60 people in about 2 hrs and a lot of them asked if we could come back! It was really cool for the members who were all 17 to 20 year old young singles that are getting ready to go on their own missions and have them help us and also learn about missionary work.

Well thank you all so much for everything!! Cant believe i will only have one more email!!! CRAZY!!! Love you all have a great week!!

Aloha Everyone,

    Well first off sorry that it took so long to get you all the email... today was our temple trip and also our pday!! We had a great trip as a zone to the Temple and it was sad cause it was my last one as a missionary!!!:( We had our regular North Shore Tacos and then hit up some of the shops on North Shore.... Had a great day but kinda long!

    Been another busy week full of exchanges, district floods and always running around between our 2 areas! Love staying busy and having so much to do! Had so many great things happen this week and things are looking so good here in our zone! Our missionaries are awesome and I love serving around them!  Had a crazy Sunday!! Ha elder Millers family accidentally showed up to our ward so that was a huge surprise for both of them but ended up being good for him to see them! 

     Well Sorry this is going to be short but we have appointments to get to and not too much time to email today! I will give more updates next week maybe if not then talk to me in 2 weeks when I get home hahah JK:) For real I am not sure I'm ready to come home yet other than to see you all.... Well have a great week and remember that this Gospel is so true!! I am loving my last couple weeks here and loving my mission! Cant wait to see you all really soon... Love you

Aloha Everyone,

  

      Well we had another great and exciting week! Went on two exchanges with some of the missionaries in our zone so that was good to be with them! Had a really cool experience with our district this past Wednesday... we did a district flood, its where our whole district gets together in one of the areas and goes out and just talk to lots of people!! We went to the Palehua sisters area for them and in one hour we had contacted 27 people for them and found some new investigators for them. Was really cool to find them and help out the sisters. Elder Stulce and I were together for the flood and we found a part member family that just moved from Tennessee and the wife isn't a member but her husband is and said that she is willing to come to church and get baptized if he wanted to as well!! So that is really cool and exciting for them to have this family to teach!!

     Elder Miller and I made a challenge for our zone. The challenge was for QGC's(Quality Gospel Conversations). Our zone had been struggling with them and so we offered lunch to the winning district that had the most QGC's over 50!! Well the two districts did awesome, and we improved so much on it and really helped the zone find people to talk to and teach! 

      This Saturday we had a really awesome lesson with the Youth Challenge teens... We ended up having around 30 in the class and it was a really good lesson and lots of them had really good questions and wanted to learn more...  8 of those were able to get permission to come to church this Sunday so that was cool to have them here with us!  

    Things are going great here in Makakilo!! Loving being back here and seeing a lot of people I already knew so that is cool!! I got to go on exchanges in Nanakuli for the day as well and go see people that I was able to teach last year and some of the members!! 

Well thank you all for everything!! I love you all and miss you! Hope you all have a great week! And cant wait to hear from you soon!

Anyone want to eat horse meat with me?

Well how about mango's?

Aloha Everyone!!!

     We had another great week!! Things are going great in Makakilo!! We had a super busy week so that was really nice. We had a mission leader training meeting with President and Sister Warner this past Tuesday and it was awesome!! They gave training's as well as our AP's. Always great to hear from them. Then on Wednesday President and Sister Warner were here in Makakilo with our zone doing our interviews. CRAZY cause it was my last one(DYING INTERVIEW!!!) Cant believe it but it was good to have them here with us! 

      Thursday was our zone meeting so we have been seeing a lot of our zone lately and that is nice! Our training was on the worth of souls. It was a great training and it got our zone unified and ready to hit our goals!!  We were on exchanges all day Friday with the Waianae elders. Elder Storer and I were in his area and we had a great day!! Got to see lots of people and loved being with him! He is one of the other elders that finished with me so we had a great day and got to talk about our missions with each other!! 

     Saturday was another crazy day! We had a service in the morning that took most of our day. We helped clean up the church mango farm!! Awesome cause we got to take as many fresh mango's as we wanted!! That has to be one of my favorite things about Hawaii!! The fresh fruit! Ha but they didn't last too long all gone already!!  Later Saturday night one of our wards had a ward party... it was a game night party so they had lots of board games and then ball games to play and of course there was food!! HA cant forget that! We played dodge ball with a whole bunch of youth and returned missionaries and that was super fun!!

      Sundays are our craziest day of the week!!!! We have meetings from 9am till 6pm none stop so every Sunday is a fast Sunday for us.. and some Sundays we have meetings till 8 or 9pm... then we still have to do numbers for our zone....makes for long days but it is always great to stay busy!

      Well things are going awesome!! Loving life here in Hawaii and loving my mission!! hope you are all doing great! Love you all and hope to hear from you all soon!!
