Last week on P-day we were able to be treated to lunch with the Ahuna's at Red Lobster. Sister Ahuna is my grandma's cousin. They are a super awesome family. President Ahuna is over the singles branch. He is super outgoing and fun. Sister Ogawa served with them so it was a great opportunity for both of us to see them!
Tuesday was a busy day of driving a Sister to the airport and picking one up. So I said bye to Sister Ogawa. My new companion is Sister Sicotte from the Visitor's Center. She has been out for 16 months. She is super awesome. She is very energetic and excited for new challenges. She also speaks Chinese so we actually had a lunch with the Elders serving in Makiki because they have a few Chinese. It was a fun experience!
Although I'm new at being in charge of the area we were stilled blessed with being able to see the people we planned to see maybe not at the time we planned but sometime throughout the week. We also were able to find some awesome new investigators.
On Sunday we walked one of our new investigators to church. It was really cute when we showed up to her house she was wearing her Chuukese dress as well as her 2 daughters who are 3 and 1. She was ready to go.
We had our family that was baptized last week confirmed which was great. I'm not sure how much they understood but I hope they felt the spirit.
Sister Sicotte and I were able to be responsible for teaching Sunday school and Relief Society. We ended up teaching about The Gospel of Jesus Christ for Gospel Principles. This talks about having faith, repenting, being baptized, receiving the holy ghost, and enduring to the end. It started off rough but went well and luckily we had a member who could translate. We were able to get more participation than usually happens in that class with the regular teachers.
Relief Society we taught about reaching out in love to recent converts and less active members. We had an activity for everyone to get to know someone they don't know and it went really great and we discussed the importance of supporting each other.
This week was good and I am grateful to have the opportunity to serve in this area.
Aloha,
Sister Heath
