Our first day at church!

Chandler and I walked and walked and walked some more to church! We thought it was a lot closer than it really turned out to be. To be quite honest we were sweaty when we arrived! Oh well! We finally found it! And when we got there it didn't look like a typical Mormon church would look in Utah. We meet at the old Hawaiian Tabernacle... It is old but Beautiful. It has a Mosaic of Christ in front with a pretty pond! Our classrooms are all entered from the outside/courtyard area- kinda different but I like it.
The ward was mostly Micronesians with a few Caucasians and other nationalities- We met a cute young couple from Idaho. It was a great Sunday all together- def not what I am used to but I love the diversity! I am excited to continue to meet new members of our ward!
The church building itself kinda reminded me of a smaller version of the conference center in SLC!
