HELLO EVERYBODY!!!!!
Crazy cool week out here in the Jolly Ole England. First of all we met this really cool kid named Song Shi-Cong. AKA Harry. He Is so cool. We were GQing right before we went home at about 830. We were walking by some student housing and we went up to this kid and did our usual thing. We asked him where he was from and he said china so we did our usual, Ni Keyi Shuo zhongwen ma? And he flipped out. He thought that us speaking chinese was so crazy. He invited us in on the spot and we ended up teaching him. We had a crazy cool lesson about prayer and he said that before we came, he asked god to be able to love him more and how he could do it. And he relayed that to us being the answer to his prayers. SO that is so amazing to me. To be the answer to somebodys prayers is one of the craziest, most humbling feelings in the world. I just feel so blessed to be able to be out here doing the lords work and having these experiences.
Jing Hui is also learning. She is set on a date for this week so hopefully she can be able to come into the waters of baptizm this week. We had a very spiritual lesson on the holy ghost so we are praying/fasting for her to make her date.
We did get in contact with Cheng hao!! We dont know what happened, but we are back in contact with him and that is all that matters. The Lord answered our prayers. We had a lesson on the law of chastity and The plan of salvation. He is getting down to 1 ciggarette a day. So he is so close to stopping.
Manning is so cool. He took us out to some legit chinese food last week and it was so delicious. He is so crazy solid. He learns everything super quick and is really eager. He was going to bring a friend to church but he had to help someone unpack, because chinese people are super friendly. But he watched the Sunday morning session. So he is way solid.
General conference is amazing. Especially while on your mission. The talks are so pertinent as missionaries. I think i liked Lynn G. Robbins talk the most. Not being afraid of people more than God. Doing things that are pleasing in the eyes of the lord not in the sight of man. GC is really interesting here. We got to watch the saturday morning session at the church from 5-7 on saturday. Preisthood at 10-12 on sunday morning saturday afternoon at 1-3 and sunday morning at 5-7 we didnt get to watch sunday afternoon unfortunatley. But i cant wait to read it in the ensign next month!
The week was way cool out here and i thank you for your prayers!!!
I love you all!
