Ding ding -- Week 63

Well hello. This week was sooo good. Just so many happy moments. Sad to say goodbye to the people in my last area, but so good to be here in west point. Here are a few moments of light. 

riding the ding ding the first day on the island. Talked to this Korean family. Seriously so happy. Just love them. They barely spoke English and I don't know Korean, but they knew I was Christian. Just smiled and took selfies.

Saw this girl on the ding ding...knew I had to talk to her. Touched her arm...you don't do that in HK...and asked where she bought her bracelet. Had a solid conversation about life. How hard it is, but how God loves us.

a girl walking away. Know I have to talk to her, but don't know how to stop her without sprinting after her. So I open my "can I ask you a question" comes out. she stops and turns around. We talk. Share about our church. Why it's different. She was super willing to share about her religious beliefs. We talk about God and our purpose on life. So good.

Just remember that God is in the details of all our lives. He is living and will guide and direct us. No matter who we are, or what we have done he will reach out to us when we lean on him and trust him. 

Thanks for all the prayers! Love you all. Have the best week

Whitewash Hong Kong Island -- Week 62

Well, another week has come and gone. It's crazy how time flies. We got transfer calls and I will be moving to whitewash on Hong Kong Island. So if anyone has any tips for whitewashing again let me know😂

This week has been good. I was on exchanges with sister Caunca this week. We had just finished sitting and talking to this kid, and then they stood up and sister Caunca said, "there is one more." we turn around and see this girl sitting on the bench. We walk over, introduce ourselves and shared the video Because of Him with her. She said she wanted to learn more, but didn't have a way we could contact her. So I gave her my Facebook and an hour later she had actually added me. I was able to talk to her and she said wants to come to church. 

Oh also this week literally saw some guy changing on the MTR. I guess "no shirt, no shoes, no service" has no meaning here lol. 

Also again on exchanges with another sister, doing comp study asked her what's her story. She is a convert. She talked about how without the church there is no purpose. Life is sad. She wanted to be a nun before. Just wanted to serve God and help those around her. Talked about how this gospel gives us hope. The plan of salvation especially. Death isn't sad because we know. Others think this life is all we have. That's why they are 唔得閒。because time is everything to them. Little do they know we have eternity. 

Thanks for all the support and prayers. Literally, mean the world. Hope you all have the best week. Stay lit.

Another Typhoon -- Week 61

Well, this week was full of many different adventures. There was a typhoon and so we all had to go home and stay home....but right before we were told that we were out finding. It was super cool because it was pouring rain and windy, but people were willing to stop and talk. Most people we talked to had met the missionaries before, or seen them. We also ran into this girl to our surprise already had a Book of Mormon. She talked, and didn't have much interest, but thanked us and then told us to go home because the typhoon was coming😂. But what was cool is so many of these people had already had experiences with missionaries. So we were just one contact closer to them being willing to listen. 

Went on exchanges on the island. So fun. We got all you can eat hot pot. So yummy. And had yoga class. Talked about life and the mission. Solid. 

We found the cutest mom on Saturday at the park with her little daughter. And then she came to church yesterday. Super cool. And also that day we started and prayed to teach the plan of salvation and prayer. In 20 minutes we were sitting on some steps in the park and taught this cute 14-year-old girl the plan of salvation and prayer. God listens to us. 

Also, super sad sister Fu left last night. So now I'm in a trio with sister Tam my old comp Sister Cruz! Yet another adventure begins.

Love you all thanks for the prayers and support. Hope this week is the best yet!
