Our kuleana is for the teachers. Even tho' they are called by their bishops, they are dedicated and passionate about teaching our youth. We will pick up some Great Harvest Bread, individually wrapped, to give to each teacher and to the building coordinators who open up the gates and the doors for the teachers. When we get there in the morning about 10-15 minutes before the class time, the BCs are already there, cheerful and they know all the kids. They call them by name. One teacher even told me he knows where to find the students, they are sleeping on the stage or in the chapel....he knows, because he used to do the same when he was their age.
I love turning on the local radio stations here that play Hawaiian music all day long. I bet no other missionaries from the mainland do this.
We are still doing fun things around our apartment. But everything is so expensive that I need to curb back on the spending.
I want to post pictures, but I don't know how to use this camera and this Apple stuff. We went to the temple yesterday, it was so nice. Small but nice.
Jace and the Hawaii Reserves Incl., is under fire for the flooding in the community, because the people are blaming HRI for not keeping the streams dredged......when actually, they have, but anytime anything happens here, it's the church that is at fault. These people have been spoiled by the church, when all around in the other communities, people have gotten in and worked to clean up and repair. Elder Q.Cook, says, he has seen it in other parts of the world, where the people of the church are spoiled.
