And that article was really good. We live with a couple of sisters from the Philippines and they were super worried this last week. Sister Dequilla hadnt heard from her grandparents last I heard, but she was more worried for her friends who were serving that mission. But I am happy to know that everyone is ok ish.
I have been trying to remember... our zone in the MTC was with a huge group that were going to the Philippines. I have to look through my journal to see if I know Amanda Smith.
But Hong Kong is still super great. This week has been full of miracles. People are just popping up all over the place ready to be taught the gospel! ^-^
Yip JM and our other investigator Eva have kinda fallen off the face of the earth since they havent answered their phones in the last 2 weeks... but since then we have met so many people. On Wednesday we were out finding in the afternoon before English class not having to much luck... but we kept talking to everyone anyway. We went to one of our favorite playgrounds to talk with some of the moms over there. The first mom literally RAN away from us.... so we moved on to the next mom her name is Sister Chan. And she ended up being SUPER de duper nice and actually really wanted to learn more about how church could help her two daughters (Chingching and Yingying) They ended up coming to English class and came to church on Sunday as well! Sister Chan is really humble and just wants the best for her kids.
Last night we had a fantastic lesson with Sister Jeung. I dont remember if I have already told you about her... but we got Carol to help us teach her and it was a match made in heaven. Carol and Jeung jimuih have SO much in common it is ridiculous. Carol pretty much just taught the entire lesson and bore testimony throughout the entire thing. It was awesome. We are going to have a FHE with them tonight at Carols house. I am super excited.
OH! the other fantastic miracle. We went out finding in Sham Shui Po (look it up it is just a crazy market) with our display and it was just really hot and no one was looking at us. Then all of the sudden the office elders call us and say "where are you? Can you get to the chapel quick? There is a mainland member referral here." So we just look at each other in shock and then within 30sec take down our poster and run for the train. At the church was waiting Fantasy. Her co-worker lives in Mainland and is a member of our church. The member was getting her patriarticle blessing so Fantasy was waiting and wanted to learn more. She is awesome! Has alot of desire to know if it is true! I will keep you posted on how she is doing.
I am sorry... this letter is awful. But just so you know. Things are great here. I am surprisingly not homesick like at all. I thought with the seasons approaching that I would miss you all alot more, but it still doesnt feel like Thanksgiving. I still feel like it is September.
I love you lots!
I will write better next week. Just read Sister Wilcox's this week.
I will also take pictures this week. sorry la.
Love!
