ALOHA....only because I'm a sister missionary

​The last two weeks have been super great! Still finding new investigators everyday and we have 3 new people that want to be baptized! I love being a missionary and can feel my testimony grow stronger everyday :)

We had a miracle with one of our investigators who had a Word of Wisdom problem. He vaped (smoking) and we were really nervous to tell him in order to be baptized he would have to give it up. When we got to the lesson turns out his wife had made him stop a couple of days before and he had sold all his stuff! We were so happy that he had already gone without for a week and now he's ready to be baptized!

Some interesting things about my mission so far that I didn't expect:

1. I use chopsticks every night for dinner. (I'm pretty good with them now)

2. Everyone in Hawaii has cameras on their doorbells so it's really hard to see less actives that don't want to see you. (*Casually covers missionary name tag while standing on the porch*)

3. Everyone calls old people Uncle and Auntie.

4. Not taking off your shoes at the door and leaving them outside is SUPER disrespectful.

5. Nobody says Aloha....except for the Sister Missionaries. ;)

I love you all and love hearing from you! The church is true I promise :)

'Ofa atu ma aloha!
