Aloha,
We went to the Mission Creek Prison tonight with bro and sis Stone. It was a way cool opportunity. This was their FHE night. Nine of them came and it was an awesome turn out. We talked about service, sang hymns, had prayer and played bingo. We talked about why we came out on a mission. The spirit was so strong. Then we watched two Mormon messages about special missionaries. It really touched the girls. The girls know that they did wrong. This is not like the prisons on TV. There are no bars, but there are a lot of doors we go in and all the girls respect us as we walk in. They all know who we are by the way we dress. I really got to know the girls. It was wonderful that I got to share my scriptures and about how Heavenly Father knows us. (3 Nephi 18:31, Mtt 10:30, D&C 6:36, John 17:3). I got to share this with them and helped them feel that they are daughters of God. They all thanked me so much. And at the end I told them a history on the hula and taught them some hula. It is very hard cause one of the rules is that you can’t have any physical contact with them. So no hugs, or even hand shakes. I love these girls. One of them, Rebecca, is a RC I know her elders (Steed and Butterfield). She is getting out on Monday. She is getting out early for good behavior. (Camp Cupcake)
