Another transfer has slowly come to end...but I'm so happy to be staying here in Maui for another transfer! Funniest story ever, we went to a baptism this weekend and some BIG Hawaiian man came running up to my companion and I. He asks us if we have any lotion with us. My companion says we don't, but she has some sunscreen with her. Before we know it this man is LATHERING sunscreen everywhere. I have never laughed harder and then he goes "that should do it" safe to say this man should never get sunburned again for the rest of his life.     If you didn't know Tongan people are OvEr ThE tOp... so after the baptism they had three whole pigs being slaughtered in the church kitchen. EEK     Ok one more story. This Sunday there were tons of visitors at our ward. There was a huge family visiting from one of the cruise ships that was stopped here on Maui. The whole family walked off the boat and walked straight to the chapel for church, and not just for one, but both hour...

Aloha everyone! Here's this week's highlights:      - We were out knocking doors one day this week when we knocked on the sweetest lady door. She immediately invited us in but it didn't take time to realize that she spoke basically no english. as i looked around her house she had brazil flags everywhere! we tried communicating through google translate but it was not the move. I tried calling my cousin, Elder Frost who is serving in Brazil right now and to my surprise he answered and was able to teach the whole restoration to her as we showed her pictures. She told him that she never lets people in but she noticed that there was something different about us! A  Portuguese speaking member set up a time for them to go to dinner so pray for sweet branca! also sorry i didn't call u sister orison i thought about it but #familyfirst     - We made bread one day with our members and it was so fun! It was a much needed relaxing day     - General conference!...
