HAWAIIAN HOMESTEAD

Hey guys i am still alive sorry this letter will be so short I don't have a lot of time to write which is a major bummer because this was my first week,but to sum it up it has been quite a change, culture wise people are either very nice and welcoming or they just ignore us as we try to talk to them I've met a few locals and one of them grew up with the owner of kalias, he does catering too so we ate dinner at his house it was really good. Besides that I really like it here in kind of In a mixed area it kind of feels like what Brazil is pictured as a lot of poverty in my area.

My current area is in the Hawaiian homestead with about 200 active members and 400 non active so we have a lot of activating to do. People here are either really strong or don't bother with religion so the active members are all saints. One lady gave us 40 dollars to buy dinner for ourselfs and another gave us 50 for Lunch. 

Well I got to go got 4 minutes before we have to go prosyliting 

Tell Aston I am praying for him and I hope he feels better.

Sorry to anyone who i didn't get to respond to your letters I will write back next chance I get 

Love you guys
