Hey everyone!
To start i want to talk about something that i have been doing ever sense watching General Conference! its that ponderize thing! its super sweet! i would invite you all to do it! the scripture that i chose this week is alma 33:11 would love to hear back from you all to see which scriptures you have chosen if you are doing it!
So this week was a really good one! for the past few weeks we haven’t had anyone that was seriously working toward baptism or had really a ton of interest in our message aside from the fact that we are white Americans… ahah! but thats alright we have seen a pretty big change this week!
To start we have been working with some investigators for a while now where they haven’t been progressing or keeping commitments for a while BUT suddenly they have all started to do what we ask them and as a result they have been willing to set baptismal dates! im so excited! One that we have been putting specific focus on is Ellen xing is zhang, she is so funny1 we have gone to visit her at her work many times which is the only place that she can because she is super busy all other times so it was amazing to see her begin to progress! she is awesome, she and her husband own this place and she is keeping the invites and he isn’t quite yet… but its ok! we all know that sometimes it takes a girl to make guys do things 😉 haha kidding!… kind of…
Then we have this kid who reminds me of Tony back home in our ward in Saratoga Springs! he is super legit i love this kid! his xing is zheng and he is here alone just in collage but he has a super deep sincere desire to learn truth and has been working hard to actually understand what we have been sharing and im super stoked for him! he is going back to tainan to visit his family and he’s like "yeah im bringing my book of mormon on the train to read and im going to share it with my family too!" haha he’s funny! love that kid!
Then i just have some pictures that i can attatch to describe the rest of the week!
got some of the zone up at our stake presidents house
our zone leaders taking some glammer shots
pictures with my comp and other missionaries
and a super good thing they sell on the streets for super cheap! 12 kuai or about 50 cents!
Love you all! hope this week is great for you all!
