Creating Great Friendships with so Many

Everytime we drive into town I am amazed at the beauties of nature here in this little piece of heaven.




        Haircut time....good news travels fast. Hazel and friends get a free haircut from Grandma. 



The "Settlement Sisters" made their singing debut at the monthly mix and mingle. We sang "I will follow Him" from Sister Act. Had a cute senior sister tap dancer who made the whole thing awesome.

  
               Then we also sang at the farewell party for the sisters we work with that are leaving

                              I will try to upload video but don't know if it will work.....NOPE, later

This is the book club I belong too, even though I didn't read the book. They reviewed the book "The Red Bandana". It's a story of a selfless hero who died after rescuing many people on 9-11. We had fun.
Once a year each of the Polynesian Villages hosts a  morning devotional. This month The Kingdom of Tonga had the honor. The Tongan students gave spiritual insights and bore testimony with their talents.

                              They had a ceremony with their flag and sang their national anthem.
     They sang an amazing hymn in Tongan with a talented soloist and several students gave talks.






          This week the Hawaiian village hosted their annual Hula Festival with hundreds participating.



                                      Who knew a mission could be this much fun💓💓💓

They wanted to know if "mormons" were Christian. I told them yes and that's why the nickname is NOT used anymore bur we say we belong to "The Church of Jesus Christ of Later day Saints".

They were excited to go.  Look at this cute family of boys who wanted a picture with me. The oldest one was 5, then twins 4 and a 3 and 2 year old.....wild times. We sang" Row Row Row your Boat" and did a lot of old MacDonalds farm animals with the great...
