Visit from the 70

Mahalo for sending all that da kine (da kine can mean anything you want it to...seriously...anything...just fyi).  Much appreciated!  I had quite an interesting week...Elder Wilson of the 70 came for mission tour!  He spoke to us in the MTC and he had such good trainings...He was the one that spoke in conference, the funny one when he said he can tell his wife what to do since he has the priesthood haha...

While on exchanges with Elder Duck we did Insanity for morning exercises!  It was awesome!  Later on we visited with a less active member...he told us to sit down and he stood for the lesson...randomly, in the middle of the lesson, he just starts practicing Kempo Karate, kicking backwards, kneeing the air and throwing punches...it was so funny!  Then he starts losing his balance and falls over and grabs my leg for balance.  Awkward.  After that lesson Elder Duck told me I should've stood up and read 1 Nephi 17:48 to him.  (I think that's the right verse)  read it right now...another one that applies to it is Mosiah 13:3 that I read last night.  

While tracting the other day we knocked on this guys door. He said he wasn't interested in talking to us...after a minute or 2 he started opening up.  He said he was a convert, "fell in love with the elders who taught him".  He was offended at Sacrament meeting once and never came back.  He told us part of one scripture...that we need to "become Christ..."  We said "oh yeah, Christlike?" he said "no, Jesus taught everyone to become him, which is what I did...I'm Jesus Christ"...didn't even take 3 months for find a false Christ...That was a pretty crazy 30 minute lesson haha...

Mahalo for the birthday letter and everything you do for me!  I greatly appreciate it...tell everyone mahalo that sent me something...not sure if i'll have time to write them today...Pday's on the big island are hard for me to write letters since I'm driving everywhere...if I don't write anyone back it's cuz we're busy...we haven't even been shopping for 2 weeks...that's how busy it is... I don't have any time to write...Pday lasts only 8 hours...which I'm not sure why it's called pday...it's from 10-6...and we try to do activities during those few hours...which leaves us no time to write anything...but I try my best...I hope to see my Asylum get here before transfers!!  they're next week!  These 6 weeks flew by!  I hope I stay in Honoka'a!  This place is amazing!  1 baptism coming up...but after that we have nothing...we really don't have any solid investigators...it's small kine depressing....anyway enjoy that picture of the Big Island missionaries with President and Sister Dalton and Elder Wilson and his wife!  bye

Hope you have a good week!  Aloha!
