Where to start well, the day of my last blog was the first day of the bible study. We had fifteen people here counting the peoples family and I. Although I have been here twice before and knew that the mainland and Hawaii were different I am continuously learning how different they are. The food, the culture and the lifestyle are only a few of the differences. Relationships are really an important part of ministry here. You really have to build relationships with people be have an influence in their life. As I learn about how to have relationships here I have also come to realize the importance of my relationship with the Lord. This may sound weird but I don’t think that I truly understood how much I love the Lord. I mean the last couple of times I have been here I have learned a lot about God and His characteristics and His love for me and these people here. I mean I have really had to rely on Him though this trip. I am starting to realize how much He is there for me and never leaves me, that through Him I can do all things. I know we say these things when we worship but I think now I can mean them more than ever and how true they are in my life. Now to talk about some of the new experiences one being trying something called mana pua which was not my favorite. I think the color of the meat freaked me out the most. It was dough on the outside and red beef on the inside it was interesting. It has also been such a blessing to live with the Peoples and be a part of their lives. I can’t believe next week will be a month that I have been here. I hope a continue to learn new things and have new experiences.
