Transfer 6

Budge shimai went home :( She's the one in the middle in the back. She was basically like all the sister's mom. She was STL for a long time and just about the best missionary and person ever!

Hey everyone!

So transfer 6 has started! I'm staying in Teine with Kapeliela shimai! I'm pumped because things are starting to really pick up. We had a lesson with This really awesome investigator and her daughter. At one point the mom asked us if we had experiences where we prayed and God answered our prayers and we said of course we have and we shared a couple of experiences. After Kapeliela shimai shared hers the daughter, yukimi, said, "I had that same experience when I was little"! And she told us how when she was shopping with her mom when she was little she got separated from her mom and she said a prayer to help her find her mom and then she found her mom right after that. It was so cool that she remembered her experience and that she recognized that God had answered her prayer! They're so awesome and I feel that they're some of those people who have really been prepared to receive the gospel. It's so exciting to teach people who receive the teachings and who want to know really. Missionary work is so awesome.

This transfer is the snow festival!! We all get to go after zone conference next week! I'm pumped! And we also have our missionary musical fireside! The songs are all so good. This transfer is going to be so much fun! Mission life is where it's at. I hope everyone is loving life and enjoying 2014!

Love,

Murray Shimai
