Aloha my lovely ohana!!!
The Hawaiian word of the day is Kamaaina. It means "old timer." Five sisters finished their missions this last transfer (rest in peace), it was sad to see them go! With them gone now, it makes me one of the old timers. Even though I haven't been out that long, there are tons of Malihinis, "newcomers", which makes me one of the old sisters. Weird, right?
Well this week has been spectacular!!!
-I looooove my new companion Sister Na. I'm pretty sure that we would be best friends if we knew each other before... I don't know why they put us together because we have way too much fun haha :)
-On Sunday we gave a tour to a guy from Morocco Africa.. it was so cool. I love it when people come in so ready to learn more and soak it all in. We showed him almost every display at the VC, and he had so many questions about everything. He was super interested in the Word of Wisdom, because he's a rock climber and super into health stuff. He just moved to Hawaii, so we can definitely keep teaching him!
-So this transfer I moved back into the other beach pad, the one I lived in for my first three transfers. Our first night in the pad, we found three huuuge cockroaches. Ewwwwwwwwwwww. It was so gross. But luckily with lots of verbal support from Sister Na, I killed all of them!
-Earlier this week we had dinner with a cute couple from mainland China. They fed us some delish chinese food, and then when we finished they brought out this dish that they called "the special soup." It looked kind of scary. But, we decided to try it! After we dished up they told us it was pig stomach soup. It was actually really good though!
-On Saturday Sister Na and I were dropping off something at one of our members house, and the guy told us that a new couple had moved in next door. So we knocked on what we thought was the right door just to meet them and say hi, but apparently it wasn't the right house. Instead a guy named Nick answered, and he was a non-member!!!!! That pretty much never happens in Laie.... an unknown non-member. MIRACLE. And he had never seen missionaries before!! He's from mainland China, and he's here as the assistant basketball coach at BYUH. And he was actually going to church on Sunday for the first time ever!!! It was quite a miracle... Heavenly Father definitely sent us to knock on the wrong door for a reason!
Well my friends, I love you so much!!! I hope you have a splendid week!
<3,
Sister Sabey
