Good morning and Aloha!

Good morning and Aloha! 1/24/2011
Today we are going to Kalapaki Beach park for a picnic with the zone. We will play frisbee, hacky sack and Portuguese horse shoes. We have a really good zone this transfer.
Our area is doing great, we had two Baptismal interviews yesterday and they will both be baptized this Saturday (Chathan Idica {10} and Sola Fahina {21}) I thought Sola was older but when her husband was filling out her baptismal record yesterday I looked at her B-day and it was 11/8/89. We are focusing on talking to more people right now and the lord is really blessing us. There were so many people at church on Sunday, less actives, part member families, investigators, non members, everyone! The chapel was packed to the back. The only problem is that all of the tourists get there on time and all of the less actives and investigators get there late so we're always stuck in the back where it's really tough to feel the spirit. I got to help pass the sacrament yesterday, I really enjoied that.

We have 3 more with a date to get baptized. One is 10 years old and his mom is a less active member but his auntie and cousins are active his name is Micha Cardinez and he will get baptized on Feb. 6th. His cousin will also be baptized on the 6th, his name is Keli'i Kelekoma (13) and also has less active parents. Their auntie brought them to church yesterday and they are coming to mutual on Tuesday nights too. The other kid is named Quinton Higley(17), his dad is a returning less active member and his mom is a nonmember. He's dating one of the less active girls in the ward (not a good example at all) but he is a really good kid and may go to SUU when he graduates.
We are working hard and the lord continues to bless us. My companion holds me very accountable (just with little stuff) and sometimes my natural man tells me to fight back but I have a little wrestle in my soul for a few seconds and then I try to humble myself and listen to him.
Mom: Thanks for sending the Shoes they are much needed. I think someone gave us some of those chocolate balls for Christmas I'll dig them out of our never ending junk food storage and send them to you. I just dry cleaned my suit last week so it should still be nice when I get home. Do you know the name of the guy that Christ miller talked to. I just found out that one of the Tongan kids from my previous ward is going to the Ogden Utah mission. His name is Pauli Ta'amale. See if Chris Miller knows him.
Dad: Jimmer's the man. I'm excited to hear the outcome of the sdsu game. GO COUGARS! What Hatch family are you talking about? The one that was in Rock Canyon ward? Are you talking about Bryce Hatch? It sounds like you all are having a blast out there.
Give everyone my Aloha.
I love you,
