BUSY WEEK
 
Gamyaht hou ma!

This week has been a very busy week! It started off last Pday! We went and hiked the peak on the Island! It was super cool because the view was amazing and I got to hike it with Elders Frey, Adams, and Hughes who all were in my MTC group! It was super fun talking to them! They are all great guys! It was a super fun hike!

After, on Tuesday, we met with our investigator and he introduced us to his friend who we have now started to teach! We taught the plan of salvation and he really loved it! Later that night we invited him to a dinner that we had with a member and the member shared a very powerful conversion story centered around the Book of Mormon! He said that the Book of Mormon literally kept him out of jail and from going down the wrong path! It was super powerful and because of that this investigator came to church! It had previously been really hard to get him to church too!

The next day we had zone conference in Kowloon Tong which was really good! I learned a lot from it!

Later,on Thursday, we had two meals with members! Since it is close to christmas members have been wanting to feed us all the time! And at one of these meals I got to try a fish that is super famous here but I cant remember the name of it in English haha. It is literally a steamed fish and you eat it with the scales on and everything. It was surprisingly pretty good! And the good news is I am getting better at using chopsticks!

We have done a lot of christmas caroling as well but people don't really listen to us unless we have somthing free to hand out haha. But that is always fun!

Other than that nothing really happened this week! I would just say that the Book of Mormon is true and it really has the power to change people's lives like it did to this member that we met with! IT is very cool to witness this change!

I would love to hear from all of you!
