Aloha : )

 First off Happy Birthday to LOGAN on SUNDAY!!! WOOT WOOT!!! YAY!!! 19! That is such a huge Birthday in a guy's life! So exciting! So this week was very very interesting... Always lots of surprises you know. But it’s all good-it makes life exciting.
One major thing that happened this last week was on Saturday night Sister Gulla (my comp) wasn't feeling too well so she went in to lay down at 8. She said it felt like her breathing was really heavy and she just wanted to call it an early night but when I went in at 9 she was crying! She said that she didn't know what was wrong but she just couldn't breathe normal and it was really freaking her out. She was scared to fall asleep with her breathing being so heavy and feeling like she couldn't get a real solid breath in. So we called the Sister Trainers and Elder McDanaugh and they decided to take her into the ER. So we went in at about 10 and we didn't get home until 1 in the morning! They had her breath in this vapor gas stuff though and that helped and so they decided to send her home with an inhaler. She might have seasonal asthma or something like that? I don't know she says it has been helping a little but she still sometimes has to take really huge breaths to try to get enough air in. It was a crazy and exhausting night.

We also had a very interesting tour-it lasted 2 HOURS!! It was with this guy who does long distance Jet Ski rides for causes? He has ridden jet skis from like Florida to New York and crazy rides like that. He told us once he did a 32 day ride! He didn't get off for 32 days! We taught him the whole restoration while using exhibits in the VC so that was kinda sweet.

Hey something really awesome I found out is the 24 year old son talked about in Elder Evans talk from the last General Conference was Sister Gulla's recent convert. He has an awesome conversion story! It's cool-you should read the talk and when it mentions the 24 year old son that got baptized that was totally right here in Hawaii by our very own Sister Gulla herself : )

Update on online.... Well let’s just say we have had all the controversial topics in the book. I must just attract them because Sister Gulla said she never had them before : (  I just want to teach the doctrine of Christ and that is all! But I do love my life and all of these experiences just keep it all interesting you know.

 Ok so our Zone theme for this transfer has been 14 miracles because we really really want 14 baptisms in July. So we have been praying, fasting, cheering, putting up reminders, just all kinds of stuff about 14 miracles and the coolest thing happened on Tuesday. The ZL's were given a list of 14 people. All of them are currently living the word of wisdom and law of chastity and going to BYU-H!!! How sweet is that! EXACTLY 14! So that was way cool! And that’s just one example of the miracles we have been seeing with this whole 14 miracles thing. So far we have 16 investigators with a baptismal date for July so I really really hope all of them are able to be baptized!!

Last thing: for p-day this week we went to Kualoa Ranch and it was so pretty! And way sweet too because the bus driver showed us all the places that movies like Pirates of the Caribbean, Hawaii 5-0, Jurassic Park, Godzilla, Lost, ect. were filmed. I will put up some pictures from that too!

Ok well I love you sooooo much! I love getting your letters and emails! They mean so much to me! Please keep them coming! I love you! Have a great day!

Sister Christiansen
