Well this was a pretty good week for us here in Nantun! On
Monday we went bowling (my new favorite hobby) and apparently some elders from
another area were there too. It was so awesome because one of them is Elder Sam
Clayson from Mapleton and he is like my best friend in the mission. It was so
great. We also got to go and hit in some batting cages. If anything was to ever
make me trunky it was me holding that bat while staring down a picture of Roger
Clemens throwing me a 90mph fast ball and then me hitting a double to
left-center. Oh man. It rocked.
Anyways, we had Zone Conference on Tuesday and that was
super cool. Except our district had to sing so that wasn't too cool. But we
talked about the importance of the Godhead and how it is literally pointless to
continue teaching our investigators the lessons if they don't even understand
their relationship with God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost. And 更好
yesterday we had an amazing lesson about the Spirit! It was the best lesson of
my mission so far. It was with that miracle lady from last week and we were
teaching the first lesson and we finished and invited her to be baptized. She
asked why she needed to be baptized again?? We talked about the Priesthood and
stuff and then she brought up something really interesting. She said how she
went to her church she would always here a voice in her head that would say
"Welcome home child". She was 100% convinced that that was the
Spirit. We were able to talk about the Spirit and the feelings it gives us and
how sometimes Satan likes to trick us. Oh my heck we talked so long and she
finally understood and it was just amazing and now she has a baptismal date for
April 16th! One day before the 17th which so happens to be the best day of the
year. haha.
Anyways, we also were able to meet with the Cai family again
this week. It didn't go as well as we hoped. The dad is slowly changing though.
Ever so slowly... But their two sons have been coming to church and I think
they really like it. Oh man I just want them to get baptized so bad!
Next week our investigator 吳弟兄 should be getting baptized!! Except on
Wednesday he expressed a lot of concerns. I think it was just stress from his
huge test that he just had. But he is so golden and really has a desire. Just
pray that he can overcome his concerns and that we can help him!
Other than that, not much exciting happened. It's getting
warmer and it's about in the high 70's and people are still wearing jackets
because "they don't want to get sick". Classic.
Hope all is well back in the State and wherever you all are.
Love you all!!
Love
Elder Anderson
Me and Elder Clayson
(Middle) and Elder Thomas!
A closer look tells
you why it is called the Death Star. yes, that is a Storm Trooper on my basket
Also I ran into this
sister. Guess who helped her get baptized? My oldest sister Kelsi. And then
when my other sister Marissa was on her mission they ended up being companions.
