Kills it everyday -- Week 34

Well this week has been a good one! This week we did lots of random things. Sister Sloan is still not fully recovered, but she still kills it everyday.

This week we had a turnover lesson with the Tsuen Wan elders, and it was this girl named Rainbow. Anyway we were just sitting at this park trying to teach her about Christ and the Book of Mormon, and she just starts smoking...which is great. But then she turns her head to blow the smoke and the wind blew it right back into our faces....lol I had to try so hard not to cough. It was a very interesting lesson. We gave her the book, and she said she's started to read it. So that's good.

Also this week we had a balloon animal making activity. We showed up and I'm actually pretty good at it. I have a hidden talent....on of the elders asked me if I was a clown or something before the mission. So if you ever want a balloon pig let me know.

Everything is going great here in Hong Kong. Sister Sloan and I just laugh our heads off at everything...maybe we need to be more serious like Cassidy and her comps.....Oh well. No one is perfect probably will just keep laughing and teaching repentance and baptizing converts.

I hope you are all doing well this week. Thank you all for your support and prayers. They are much appreciated. Remember to look for the miracles throughout everyday. Love you all

Covering 5 Wards--Week 33

well this week has been interesting. I was sick, and sister sloan was immobile, but don't worry she is good and recovering. It only takes us an hour to get places that usually take 15 min...lol.

This week we had interview with President and transfer calls. Sister Sloan and I will stay companions, but now we will be covering 5 wards. I now feel bad for the Utah missionaries who cover 3 stakes. It'll be an interesting transfer.

This week we tried to go finding one day, but sister sloan couldn't really walk, so she literally said to someone "come here." They just looked at her and walked away. It was so funny. I just laughed after that. And then we ran into a person who had been taught before, and she just told her she shouldn't be out walking.

I have learned a lot this week. I've learned that God is really there. He knows each and everyone of us and the situation we are in. That He listens and answers our prayers. I'm so thankful for this opportunity I have to be here serving the Lord. I have learned so much.

thank you all for your prayers. I hope you all are doing well, and hope you all have a good week.

Be careful when you pray--Week 32

hello!

sorry this is really short, but this week has been full of adventures! Currently we are at the ER because my and I were praying into comp study, and we stood up and all of a sudden her knee hurt. then she couldn't walk for 2 days. so we ended up here. We decided to only speak English because neither of us know any medical terms in Chinese.

also this week there was one day that literally we just ate all day. We had members take us out to breakfast, then we met with one of the RS presidents and she took us to lunch, then we met with a returning member, and she brought us bread, and then we had the cutest couple take us to dinner. we ate some weird bird...but it was pretty good.

keep reading your scriptures and praying....but be careful when you stand up. you don't want to end up in the ER. 

lol love you all. thanks for all of your prayers.

Happy New Year I Guess Because Everyone Else Uses That -- Week 31

Wow this week was filled with many miracles and different things.

Well first we went to church yesterday, and we walked in and on the second floor there was water everywhere....I guess one of the toilets broke and flooded. So they cancelled the second hour of church lol.

This week we were also able to meet with this really inresting lady. We found her number and called her, and scheduled her. When we met she had so many questions about why there are so many different churches, and where we go after this life, and what makes our church different. It was really cool, and a miracle. She said that her son asks her all these questions, and she doesn't know how to answer them. Hopefully we will have an opportunity to meet with her again soon.

Also the other day we were out finding and I started talking to this lady on the street, she let us sit down with her, and then invited us into her house. We went inside, and tried to teach the Restoration....but she got a little sidetracked. We also tried to give her a Book of Mormon, but I guess we didn't make it clear, and she thought she had to buy it. But then I tried to explain that it was free. so then she took it. But as we left she tried to pay us. It was very interesting lol.

Well sorry no time, but hope you are all doing well. thank you for all your prayers and support. Hope you had a happy new year.
