Aloha!


Anyways, so this week was a long week. It felt like two weeks in one! It was crazy! So, yes, some dear friends went home (they finished their mission). Idk if I sent pics or not, but I'll try and send some after. Then, we had 4 other sisters stay with us on Friday because of the storm that was supposed to pass... but nothing really happened except for some strong winds. Not even a lot of rain :( but everyone is good! Hermana Gingell and McFarland were two of the sisters that stayed with us. We weren't allowed to leave the house that day, so we stayed inside ... and might've played some games ... like murder in the dark ... hahaha that was a blast! And the elders were nice enough to buy some food for all 8 of us, so we made hamburgers together and ate ice cream in celebration of Hermana Garcia's birthday :D But we were all good.

The mission is doing good. The days are long but the weeks are short!  Man, it all passes by too fast. We are still teaching the same people (finding people is hard in this area, because there aren't a lot of people home, nor are there a lot of people who let us in sometimes).  But we are trying to work more with the members. Saohny is doing good! Her brother is active now in the church (just needs to talk with bishop now I think) and her mom too. So she's good to go for her baptism! Also, Cirfrida is doing good! She talks a TON, but she treats us like her own daughters (and loves us a ton too :D) and she is super excited for her baptism. For Mirea, we are working on finding someone for her that is trustworthy enough to watch her aunt so that she can go to church on Sundays. But she is progressing so fast and just takes in everything! She is amazing!!

But yeah, that's basically it for now. Thank you all for your love and support and for your prayers! Love you all and have a great week!

Love, aloha, y amor, 
Hermana Ho
