First week

Well...I have made it through my first week here in Hawaii and have still not seen the beach! The island is much bigger than I thought. I am definitely planning on heading out there some time this week!! I am still trying to find my way around. If everything did not look so similar it would not be so hard. I will get it soon, I hope. Yesterday I found out how to get to the outlet mall and to where the beach is. I hope to go there soon. I went to church yesterday. The music was great! I reminded me of everything I am used to. I really appreciated that. I still want to visit around to some of the other churches on the island before I settle with one. Please pray that I will find a church that is just right for me that I can get plugged into. Thank you for your prayers! I can really feel them right now. My body is finely getting used to the time difference and I am sleeping much better at night. My new prayer is that I could find some people that are close in age to me that I could be friends with. I would like to be able to "hang out" with some people other than the family I am living with. Not that they are hard to be with but I just need somebody else so that I do not get tired of them and more so that they do not get tired of me. I hope everyone is doing well and that you all have a wonderful day!! I love you all.

love, mary
 
outlet malls and the beach!!! what else could a girl need ? :)

i'm sure once you find a church you'll meet some new friends...
 
hope, this is mary's friend elissa (nani). i think it is awesome that you are in my home state!! i will be praying for your adjustment there... it can sometimes feel like a totally different country than the rest of the US.

if you ever go to the older neighborhood section of honolulu -- kaimuki and kapahulu -- you should stop by my church's coffee shop and bookstore. it's called "covenant books and coffee." they have ONO soup and sandwiches and coffee and it's one of the best resources for Christian books on the island! ask mary for my e-mail address if you want to ask me any questions, okay?
