Yesterday we had a feast of great talks with Elder Hallstrom and Elder Teixeira of the area 70 for Europe (I think) Elder Hallstrom told how he being raised in Hawaii has met every Prophet since Geroge Albert Smith who he met at 1 year old and had picture taken with him. He helped Spencer W. Kimbell when he came to Hawaii and became his personal assistant. Elder Hallstrom is a tall, large,nordic looking man, much like my father and we remember Pres. Kimbell as being rather short, After Pres. Kimbell left he re read his biography and always felt so close to him and would to anything for him. Later he pondered how much he had grown to love him and wanted to serve him after he had gotten to know him so well. Later he thought, as he studied the Sauvoir, and pondered that he , too should know HIM AS WELL and serve Him, just the way he had been a personal assistant to the Prophet, he, too, should serve the Lord and know Him, So he started studing the New |Testament more and learning more about Jesus Christ. Elder Teixeira and his wife, I adore, She is Portugese and they served togetehr in San Pao, Brazil. She speaks cute English and spoke of marriage, quoting from the Old testiment about Adam and Eve, LEAVE, CLEAVE AND BECOME ONE, She is a painter and she said as she is making some work form her sons wedding, As she had yellow and blue, two beautiful colors, together, combined become green as one, just as beautful. We had enjoyed the spirit and look forward to more spiritual feasts, instead of pain and chocolate.
