Miracles over missiles


Well this week was a different week. With now being a Technology mission, we are now applying and using all the features approved for us to use. That being said... All our records have to be digitized so we take time every day to get that done. It's a slow long process. But once it's in it's going to be smooth!! I'll be excited when we’re using it not just preparing it to be used! 
With time being spent uploading our area book our proselytizing time was really limited. However, exact obedience brings miracles and that's what we saw. We were walking down the street contacting and we hear a knock. We look around. I ask Elder Eborn... "did that car just knock at us?" The windows were tinted so we couldn't see but sure enough they opened the door and talked to us and we had an amazing talk and hope to continue the lessons! We then walked like 30 more feet and this guy was standing on the other side of the street. Following our prompting we crossed and I talked with him and he invited us to come back and teach him and his family Sunday!! It was an awesome time. So many things went into it that got us there at the right time. Divine intervention is awesome.
We also got transfer calls and I will be leaving Kaneohe to go to Honolulu. Elder Willdon is my companion and he's awesome. It'll be a good time!
We also got to watch President Thomas S Monson's funeral. It was so awesome! Such an amazing guy he was and he did so much to help everyone not only at his destinations but along the way as well. He has caused so many smiles to enter the lives of millions of people, as can we if we commit to do our best and choose every day to follow the example of Jesus Christ. To love him and share that love with others. Have a wonderful Week! Enjoy your time; share a smile with someone around you!

Ps. we got an emergency alert "Ballistic missile threat inbound to Hawaii. Seek immediate shelter. This is not a drill." Then for 38 minutes everyone around us freaking out, pedaling out, driving to who knows where... we’re on an island. Families were climbing down the sewer drains and man holes. Craziness erupted and Elder Eborn and I look at each other almost simultaneously say, “well nothing we can do” and open back up our scriptures to finish our personal study. We then getting another one telling us it was a false alarm. So yeah we are all alive!
