GIVING THANKS
 
Leih hou!

This week has been a very fun and busy week! To start it off, last monday we went to another BBQ place for Elder Siddoway's birthday! It was super fun and there was a ton of weird foods, some of which I didn't even bother to try! Elder Siddoway is the best! Make sure to wish him a happy birthday even though it was last week! Then after we went to the Hong Kong history and science museum! It was super cool to learn about the history of hong kong! I also got to lay on a bed of nails while it raised me about 2 feet and it didn't even hurt!

In Hong Kong they don't celebrate Thanksgiving but the Yuen Long ward really likes the idea of giving thanks and being grateful and humble so they decided to do a thanksgiving party and we were able to make brownies and a turkey!! During this event the ward members invited firends, less actives, non members, or anyone else to this event. They then put on a play about being thankful and humble! Most of which I didn't understand but it was really cool to see! I could just feeel the spirit of how thankful all these people were for what they have! It is honestly super cool to see!

We taught a few lessons. We continued teaching Yeung Hingdaih (the master from karate kid). He comes to all of our engligh classes and he loves the gospel! He always tells us that when he is with us or the members of the church he always feels super good! He is doing really great and is really thankful for all that we do for him!

orther than that we studied a lot and went finding which is always a good time! This last night while we were finding a 12 year old kid came up to me and I thought he was looking at the english class fliers that i was handing out but he was reading my name tag and he stopped and told us that he believes in christ and then he pulled out a chinese bible and he told us he is really interested in Christ! it was super cool because he said he was the only one in his family that is chirstian! Super cool kid! and the cool part was that we had been praying for a miracle to happen because no one stops when we try to talk to them. So this past week has been really frustrating in that aspect but we prayed to find people who had interest and right before we were about to go home for the night this kid came up and started talking to us about his beliefs! The power of prayer and faith is real!!

Well that is about it for this week! Please let me know how you guys are doing I woulsd love to hear from you all!!
