Work

大家好

Welp, another week has come and gone. Too fast. Not fair. But we had a great week! 

First of all, I hate writing these big weekly emails. They take too long, but I will try to make it good.

So this week we found a new investigator!! His name is Brother Wang and he is so awesome! He is 29 and when he was a kid he used to come to the church for English class and he has also met with the missionaries before! He is a DJ and an engineer. Super cool. We met with him and he is just so awesome and very interested in the gospel. We are meeting with him again tomorrow and plan on inviting him to be baptized so we will see how that goes! 

Also we were able to meet with Brother Liao!! He is the one that is in the military so he can only meet every few weeks. But he is just so golden! He said in the military people are super mean to him and he just hates it. But he told us that he has been reading and praying and has told us that there has been such a huge difference! People have been so much nicer him and he loves it. He just loves the gospel and accepted a baptismal goal! I am super excited for him!

This week I went on exchanges with Elder Spach and it was so much fun. He has been out one transfer longer than me so it was super fun to just tear up the streets of Fengyuan. We met one lady on the street that seems very prepared. We gave her a Book of Mormon because she seemed so interested! She then asked us how she should take care of it. As in, should she buy a case for it or what? Because she really wants to respect the Lord's word. So awesome!

Last Monday we went and played basketball at the 大雅 chapel. There were 16 Elders there. so many. So we did a 4 on 4 tournament. Our district was a team and our team name was 瘋原。Super funny! haha. We took it all.

Lastly, I want to share a scripture that I read this week. It is in 2 Nephi 28:37 32 Wo be unto the Gentiles, saith the Lord God of Hosts! For notwithstanding I shall lengthen out mine arm unto them from day to day, they will deny me; nevertheless, I will be merciful unto them, saith the Lord God, if they will repent and come unto me; for mine arm is lengthened out all the day long, saith the Lord God of Hosts.

I just love this verse of scripture because the Lord's arm is always extended to us. We will sin every single day, but He will always have His arm out to catch us and bring us back to Him. Have faith in the Lord! Be ambitious for Him and use His atonement daily to repent and come closer to Him!

Love

We met an old man on the street that was wearing a Jazz hat. He loves Karl Malone! But he has no interest in the gospel.... Nice man though
