Yes, I did it wrong.  I knew about the H.  I was on my phone, and I think the phone added it, and I forgot to fix it.  I was trying to hard to remember the name of the other K word, but gave up on that too.

I had posted about attending there in another thread.  I thought he was quoting me.

btw... it can be difficult to get hawaiian words right...... .. of the 5 languages i;m relatively fluent in hawaiian was the hardest for me to learn...... and i think it;s the one i have actually studied the most.....  :-\

I really thought I was on the other thread when I read about his and my mistakes.  I made them too, but they are corrected now.

In Hawaii, are semicolons used in place of apostrophes?

do you mean the post about prairie du chien?....... ... i think it;s spelled right...... in english it means grassland of the dog...... or dog;s meadow.....  ... .....

I lived there 20 years ago.

The "dog" to which it is referring is actually the Beaver. As the second settlement in the state of Wisconsin and with its location on the Mississippi River, the beaver fur trade was prominent reason for its settlement  .

no...... that;s just something i naturally end up doing when i type because my third finger on my right hand turns slightly inward due to many years of archery.... i draw a bow string with my first three fingers and that one takes the majority of the stress...... .... i also have a tremor in my hands when at rest at the keyboard which i subconsciously relieve by resting my little finger on the keyboard between sentences..... that is what results in large numbers of these sometimes -> ............................. i go back and fix some of the things... and sometimes i go back and fix all of it or consciously over ride all of it and type everything out the way it is supposed to look....depending on what i;m typing.......  but it takes a lot of extra time... so when typing on the forum i usually just leave it as is...... ....

Thank you for the brief explanation.

I was preaching some meeting in Hawaii ten years after I got out of the Marine Corps.  My wife and I went out to eat with a pastor before the service at his church. As we were leaving someone call my name, I turned around and saw a Marine approaching me in civilian clothes. He identified himself as a guy who had served under me years before. We just exchanged greetings and he told me his wife had been medevacked from the Marine base in Okinawa Japan to the Army Hospital in Honolulu & that's why he was there. Two nights later I was preaching another meeting on another part of the island, a young Marine approach me and told me that the night before there had been a big rainstorm so he had gone to the hospital to pass out tracts in the family waiting room there. He handed a tract to a guy who said he was already saved. When asked how he got saved and he told about how he had a Sergeant in the Marine Corps who was always passing out gospel tracts.

Every time he received a tract rather than throwing it away, he took it home and stacked them up on his kitchen windowsill. One day when his family was away he said he read all the tracts, bowed his head & trusted Christ as Savior. He mentioned that he had just run into that Sergeant two nights before at a restaurant . When asked if he remembered the name of his Sergeant he gave my name .

So 10 years later God allowed me to hear this testimony of how that Marine had gotten saved. For anyone reading this may I encourage you to keep on sowing the seed of the gospel anyway & every way you can.

Thank you for sharing such an encouraging and challenging story!

Several years ago, I taught 1st & 2nd Grade girls in Sunday school. I would bring tracts to class with me, give one to each girl to hand to someone that week. They were to bting a note from their parents the next week if they handed it out.  Most were given out each week.

Periodically, I would have a month of "contest". Again, parents had to help, but six or seven girls with their parents would hand out hundreds of tracts in a month's time.

My own children, when they were young, would not allow me to leave a store, bank, or anywhere without giving a Gospel tract. If I forgot, they would all say in a loud whisper, "Mommy, you forgot to give her  [or him] a Gospel tract!"

I believe with all my heart that there will be people in Heaven because of those young girls  or because of my children's not so quiet reminders.

When preaching in Hawaii most churches would give my wife & me flower leis to welcome us. So, I would preach with flowers around my neck.  :
