Alright it was another great week in the Waialua ward. actually probably the best week yet we committed one of our investigators to baptism! which was awesome! I have been slowly learning how to be more humble and more teachable. My companion is  the reason we have this commitment he may have not been the one who finally got her to decide but if he hadn't taught me to just listen instead of talk. I don't think i would have made any progress with this person. when i look back at the way i was just at the MTC and the way i am now its crazy the difference. I really can feel my testimony grow everyday i am out doing his work. I am grateful for the support of all of you, and I pray for you all everyday. Happy New Year !

something that wont be in the letter is what we did on new years. New years was a blast we were not allowed to prosilite due to the high number of drunk people. So the AP's came up with a scavenger hunt for us to do, which included, Get a picture of you give out a book of Mormon, get a picture of you singing a hymn. take a picture of you washing your car or doing service. also get a picture with a non member. and lastly take a picture of a sign that says Mahalo on it. and so Elder lee and I decide to try to get them all in one picture and we did I don't have the right picture yet but here or some of the ones we took before we took the real one i will send the completed picture next week because i forgot my camera haha also the guy we took these pictures with was super drunk haha it was really funny.
