Aloha Friend!
The first two weeks in Hawaii have been incredible! I feel like my faith and knowledge about God have already doubled since I have been here, and it's only been two weeks! I have met some amazing people, some of which I would already call some of my closest friends! I have class Monday through Friday which consists of listening to speakers come in and teach us how to bring heaven to earth and spread the love of God. We also are doing "community outreach" here in Kona every Wednesday night (or whenever else we may please) where we go out into the city and pray for whomever we feel called to pray for. Being here is definatley taking me out of my usual comfort zone, but it's been super good to learn how to branch out and be able to tell anyone how awesome God is!
We decided our outreaches on friday. My DTS is going to South Africa, Boulder Colorado, and New York. I will be going to Cape Town, South Africa, and probably the Comoros Islands of of Mozambique. In Cape Town I will be working in some schools there teaching them various things including the gospel, along with working in some AIDS hospice's in the area. If I go to the Comoros Islands that will be a week long trip with 4 or 5 other students and staff. This island is mostly muslim and only has 2 christians. We will have to be under the rador there because christians get persecuted but we will get the opportunity to teach what we know to the other two christians on the island so that they can be lights to spread the gospel to more!
I am so happy to be here, I know God has so much in store for me and the rest of my DTS. Thank you so much for your support and prayers! The prayers have definatley been working because everything has been going to well! I love and miss you all!
LOVE, Annie Wellumson :o)
