Dear Family
I was so much fun talking to everybody on Christmas Day. It was great to
hear everybody's voice, and to hear from everybody. It was really fun, and I'm
looking forward to the next time i get to call home for mothers day.
So I've been having some really weird dinners over here in Auwaiolimu. Haha
try to pronounce that word!! :) We had a Big Slab of Salmon which was okay,
beside them having put 2 inches thick of Mayonnaise over the whole fish. and Then
baking it. Then tons of Raw Onions on top of the Mayo. It was not the best way I've ever had Salmon before.
For New Years Eve tonight, we will celebrate it as a Zone with all the
missionaries, and we are allowed to stay out until 1, and then wake up at 8AM.
Tuesday is another Non-Proselyting Day. And THen Wednesday we are Going to Pearl
Harbor, on board the USS- Missouri to do service again. Im excited for the next
few days, they should be really fun.
Today i bought a Jesus Book. A Jesus Book is the New Testament Translated
into Hawaiian Pigeon. Heres a funny Verse.
John 3:16
Jesus say, "God wen get so plenny love an
aloha fo da peopo inside da world, dat he wen send me, his one an ony Boy, so
dat everybody dat trus me no get cut off from God, but get da kine life dat stay
to da max foeva." (John Tell Bout Jesus
3:16)
Haha ive been flipping through it a little
bit. its pretty funny stuff.
The work has been going kind of slow in
this new area. Hopefully it will pick up soon. We have a referrals from people
that will hopefully get baptized, they have the potential. I think walking so
much in this area has been helping my back feel better. Except for i get super
sweaty every day. It finally cooled down here in Hawaii. I can manage the
Temperature now.

I forgot to say in the last letter. But we had a Christmas Eve Dinner, and Elder
Shepherd my companion was Santa Claus!!! All the Kids were Hawaiian. So a White
Santa scared the crap out of most of the little kids. He made like 10 kids
scream and cry, when the parents made them get close to Santa Claus for a
picture. It was super super funny!!

| A gigantic Centipede!! They can get up to like a Foot Long here in Hawaii, this was just a baby one! |
This was on our Hike to the Top of Mount Olympus i think its called. We hike for
like 5 hours and finally got the the top. This picture is like 1 third of the
way up the mountain. I hung my camera on a branch and did the timer, which is
why the picture is tilted haha. When we finally got to the top of the mountain,
there was thick fog. if the fog wasn't there we could have seen like half the
Island.

My Retainer broke again. Sister Scott wants me to ask
you what you want me to do. Either i can get it glued again and hope it doesnt
break again. Or i heard about a procedure where they grind a slit acrossed the
back of my front two teeth, and put a wire in the slit and glue it in. Then My
teeth wont hit it because the wire will be kinda inside of my teeth. Just a
thought?
Any word from Doctor Reichman with my Back
MRI??
I sent a package home, of mostly just junk i don't want
to have to carry around with me everywhere. There is a bunch of papers i don't
need. A Book of Mormon in Samoan, Tongan, and Hawaiian. And Some Samoan Language
learning books. And My Quad Scripture set, because i never have used it. I
already have one and dont need 2. I sent a Hawaiian Calender, a Wooden Rice
Spoon, and a Frog for Mom for Christmas and just for fun. And there's the 2
watches in there, and a stocking you sent me
