Aloha!
This week has been kind of blah if you know what I mean. Oh the ups and downs of missionary work. I was on an exchange with one of the Sister Trainers a couple of days ago so I got to knock on some doors in the Kahuku ward I served in when I first got to Hawaii. We were able to find a new investigator which was awesome! Man, I miss that ward sometimes but it was fun to be there again for a day.

Work at the Visitors Center has picked up a lot these past few weeks. It must be summer time because all of sudden everyone is scantily dressed and its harder to tell the difference between the members of the church and those that are not members. I think that the Lord sends some of his strongest Elders to this mission because of the lack of modesty, I really do. Last week Monday we were able to go to the Beach Park and play frisbee and sit by the ocean for a couple of hours. I was really impressed by the Elders and their focus. The work of the Lord here in Hawaii is in good hands.
Life is really good and we are all anticipating the opening of the temple and preparing ourselves for when that time comes. I've been learning so much about the gospel and about temples...studying the symbolism and the purpose more fully...and I honestly can't wait until it opens. I think that I'll be blown away by how much more I learn the next time I go. Please take advantage of having so many temples nearby and go as often as you can. I'm jealous!
Lots of Love :)
