Ohhhh the sound of snow blowers fireing up in the morning...there just aint nothin like it! so ya know how there was a crazy blizzard last week here in milwaukee??(ya probably dont) but there was a flipin blizzard!!! that didnt hold me and elder kanahele back at all though! we went prosolyting in it! the blizzard was actually a blessing...we met some amazing families that night and amazing people...that blizzard led us to 8 new investigators ! the next day it gave us so many opportunities to serve... before i get into how amazing it is here and how much im lovin it...lets talk about the cold!
(know that this is not complaining but just some funny true facts)2 pairs of warm thick socks and boots..HA! it gets so cold when we pull out our planners to write down numbers or addresses our hands wont work! let alone our pens...the ink freezes! honestly ive never been happier in my whole life family. this work is amazing. being a representative of christ and to have the power and to see the joy that ive had my whole life.. change peoples lifes has brought me more happiness and joy then i have ever had in my whole life!
elder kanahele is the man. he helps me so much. he treats me like a brother! all we do is build eachother up and we are both pretty positive people so im honestly just lovin it! haha the other day we are sprintin to catch our bus down this icey road and there wee see it fly by right before our eyes! "thats beutiful" he always says in his sick new zealand accent. hes a stud. and has helped me so much. hes a freakin fire knife dancer at pcc haha
so we are opening a new area! ITS FLIPPIN AMAZING! its a bus area! and we walk practically everywhere! its a blessing...we meet so many people the other night we get off the bus and are walking to a less actives house within ten minutes we met 4 people we had 4 lessons and 4 new investigators! ive gained such a strong testimony of planning. as we plan...our days hardly ever go as planned..but we follow that plan we made .... god puts people in our path! i see miracles every day... we are teaching a family rightnow! one of the ones we found during that blizzard the first lesson they all committed to baptism! our first lesson the spirit was present ...not only present but was powerful. it was an amazing experience! angel luis margerita maria they are amazing people...elder kanahele and i left that lesson feeling so good . when the spirit touches people you can tell...as we sat there teaching in there humble apartment the whole feeling of the roomed changed there whole deminor changed you can tell the spirit touches there hearts when it touches yours...it was so strong for me i can feel that the spirit has touched them when you look in there eyes and see happiness! they are an amazing family. we went back saturday night to set up our next appointment...angel told elder kanahele and i that we bring peace joy and an undescribable feeling into his home when we come...we testified to him that it was the spirit ...he knew it was. i love the people here they are absolutely some of the most humble people i have ever met there so loving and they all see us as angels and representatives of christ. funny quick story...so at night between appointments or if somethin falls through we do alot of proselyting! and we freeze! haha we shoot for the laundrymats to go warm up at...so we are headin to this laundry mat there is a cop and a truck full of strait up gangsters that it pulled over...as we pass by the truck they all look at us and just simply say.. god bless you. every where we go people see us as good...they respect us so much down here! of course theres those that really dont like us...but over all these people are amazing. its a blessing to be enlisted in the lords army! to serve the people here everyday and help them grow closer to christ! another quick funny story! so the day after the blizzard we were headin to the bus stop and there was a guy out shovelin his driveway...we didnt help him...haha just kiddin we asked what can i do to help (bishop rowleys favorite line)! he called us his angels haha but anyways when we started i started with the snow blower i was pushin it along up the incline of the drive way...pushin slowly turned into a jog then a run then a full out sprint as i found my self on ice on a hill with the snowblower pulling me one way and my body wanting to go the exact opposite! i shortly found my self on the ice face down in embarece ment hahah everybody was crackin up! it was great. ive had quite of instences so far like that ...arizona instincts kick in and i forget where i am! as long as it makes people happy then thats fine by me haha! family i gotta go ! im lovin it here i hope all is well!! love you all!!
