We met with Pres. MacCarthey of the
BYU-H 2nd Stake and were asked to serve as mentors in the 10th ward with
Bishop Meyers. The ward is comprised mostly of freshmen students! This
will be a fun challenge trying to teach students how to function in
various ward positions. We're grateful for the experiences and training we had while serving at BYUI.
Enjoyed testimony meeting and hearing from students
all over the world: China, Trinidad, Philippines, Korea,
Caribbean, Canada, Utah, Austrailia, New Zealand, Samoa, California and
even Idaho. They are all so grateful to be attending college here in
Hawaii.
Here is a pic. of the R.S. Presidency. The pres. is
from Korea, counselors from Japan & Singapore, secretary from
Trinidad. Amazing young women!
We enjoyed a short, but great visit
with our Mission President, President Bill & Sister Dalton. They
are from Yorba Linda, California. Dad told him about our son, Ryan,
working for John Force. Well, he knew all about John Force, loved to
watch drag racing and the conversation escalated from there. We talked
about John Medlen, who was Ryan's mentor while he worked on the blowers
(super chargers) and John's son, Eric who had been killed while test
driving. (small world)
Pres. Dalton knew every single
sister and elder serving in the Hawaiian Islands. We mentioned Elder
Marlowe from our home ward and they couldn't say enough great things
about him, how he is already training a new elder and is proselyting in
the most remote area of Hawaii. He is dynamite!!! What a great
blessing to be here serving with all these "Dynamite" missionaries.
Aloha!
