So since last Thursday, cause we went to the temple, which is the best thing ever, nothing to exciting has happened. ...
Our Zone Training went well. Sister Palmer and I tried to get everyone as pumped as we are about 65. 65 BAPTISMS in July!!! I am so excited! We are going to see so many miracles!!!
Sister Palmer and I have been working extra hard. We really w are trying our best to do our part of the miracles. We have been trying to set as much time as we possibly can to be out in the streets talking to people. We have cut down our meal times and are making more calls while we are traveling so we don't have to go in as early. We decided to work like everyday is our last day.
On Saturday we were able to meet with this lady I had met while we were on exchanges almost a month ago. She is originally from Mainland. She told us all about her life. Sometimes I forget how different China is. She said she only went to school for 1 year. She has to work after that. At one point her entire house burned down. She said there were many days that she was hungry, with no one to help her and her siblings. So her and her husband moved down to Hong Kong about 3 years ago so their two sons could have a better life. People sacrifice so much for their children. It is amazing. So we taught her about prayer and about Heavenly Father. Hopefully we will be able to see her next Saturday since that is her only day off.
At church yesterday we werent planning on any of our new or progressing investigators come to church. When 10 min into Relief Society walks in Cheung pohpoh (grandma cheung). The elders met her a couple of weeks ago and taught her about prayer, she didnt have a phone at that time, so they just invited her to come to church. Sure enough that Sunday she came for the first hour and left before anyone got a chance to talk with her. We hoped that she would come again so that we could teach her more and sure enough she came! This time she stayed for all three hours and we got her new phone number. :)
Miracles are already starting to happen. The work is fantastic. I am so grateful that I get a chance to serve at this time.
I love you all!
