Sister Sage Sabey: Mar 24, 2015

Aloha my lovely ohana!! I hope everyone had a wonderful week :)

One of this week's highlights:

This cute little Mormon family came into the Visitors' Center one night with three little kids. The kids had never seen the Christus statue before or heard the narration that goes along with it. So we introduced it and then played it for them. Afterwards we were talking to them about how they liked it, and then we bore our testimonies of Jesus Christ. Then one of the little boys, probably about four years old, said, "Wait, are you two saying talks right now???" His parents clarified that he just gave his first talk in primary that last week and loved it. Then he said, "Can I say a talk too??" So we told him of course! With a huge smile on his face, he walked right up to the base of the statue and turned around and yelled "I LOVE JESUS!!!" loud enough for the whole Visitors' Center to hear, and then ran back to his seat. So cute. :) I think there is a lesson we can all learn from him.... how eager and willing this sweet boy was to share his testimony and his love for his Savior. Our testimonies don't have to be long or eloquent or full of fancy words. They just have to be heartfelt and genuine. If we really love Christ, people will feel it. They will want to know Christ too because we know Him.

In other news....

-We saw Ann again this week! She's the non-member we found tracting the edge of Laie who no one knew about. She was actually really happy to see us this time, which was a nice contrast from last time. :) She really opened up to us about some struggles she is having, and was eager to hear the message we wanted to share with her. I think Heavenly Father is definitely preparing her to receive the gospel. So I'll keep you updated on that. :)

-Remember that one time 8 months ago when I told you the grounds of the VC were going to be closed for construction until January? Well welcome to aloha time, they are now FINISHED AND BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!! :):):)

Well everyone, make it a great week!! Christ lives! This is His church, and it is TRUE.
