The mission don't last forever but as long as its here than we might as well work together.‏

Better now than ever, scriptures before letters, E. Prina and the fam who you know do it better?

Malo e lelei hoku family,
The Tongan ward over here is in my district now so I got to go over there on exchanges this week and resurrect some of my Tongan skills. All things are bright and beautiful over here. There's only 3 weeks left in the transfer so I want to do everything I can before I almost undoubtedly get transferred.

This week at church the one Tongan family in Pearl City first ward came to sacrament meeting, I often think that their family is the reason I am here in Pearl City. Also another less active lady that we have been teaching for months finaly came and brought her whole family who are all less actives and non members. The lord is really pouring out blessings on Pearl City.

Like Rob I have also had many cool experiences with doing service on my mission. Last Saturday we helped our land lord put together these two big storage sheds that were in pieces when he bought them and set them up in his back yard. He told us thank you about 200 times and let us teach him the restoration. He was really humbled as he listened and considered what we said. He has been housing missionaries for almost 2 years now so he knows a lot because he always comes and talks to us. He said he would read the Book of Mormon and pray about it and we could teach him again next week. His name is Mike Todd, I love this guy, I've known him for almost 6 months, he really needs this right now in his life, please keep him in your prayers.
Rob: There is a guy in our ward who recently started coming back to church, he is a graphic designer and said he used to design clothes for Echo in New York. I told him about my echo shirt that says "Echo" on the neck when you pop the collar and he was like "yeah, I invented that", I just thought that was pretty cool. Rob can you please send me the article about Mrs. Johnson that mark sent you. Also can you please send me an example of the white shirt and tie thank you cards? E. Naulu goes back to Oakland in October, he plans to go to school for construction management and start his own business. There are so many Tongans in Utah I don't doubt we'll see him around.
Mom and Dad: no, sis. Wixoms' mom is not in my ward. She is in a different stake. If I can get her address I will send missionaries over there. The Ikari's phone number is 808 454 0017. For b-day gifts I could use a new short sleeved white shirt.

my time is about to run out.
Love, Elder Prina
