你哋好啊

This week has been super cool. We were able to meet with a bunch of cool people. Including a less active family. They are a bit older and the wife is not a member but it was super spiritual because when we taught them the husband was really telling the wife how much he wanted her to be baptized so they could enjoy an eternal family in God's kingdom. And it made the lesson so much more spiritual. The reason why he doesn't come to church is because he has been weak. He has to go get surgery this week but after the surgery we are planning on visiting them again and see how they are doing.

These past 3 days I have been pretty sick. A little dizzy and been coughing. It made it hard to do the windows that we had scheduled but i tried to do them and i am still alive after haha. But this week we were able to accomplish our 10 windows and 10 contacts per day and read the Book of Mormon daily. And it has been interesting because we have been teaching a lot of street lessons to people who want to hear a message and seem like they are prepared but then later when we try to contact them they don't reply and answer our calls. It has been frustrating because we have found and taught a bunch of people but none of them have replied at all.

This week we have been extremely busy. To fit in all the windows, we haven't done any studies. We normally have time for personal study, but the other two studies we have had struggles to fit in. But we have been able to accomplish the 10 windows per week.

That is pretty much all that has happened this week. I am so grateful for my mission. It is an experience that i wouldnt change for anything. I have learned so much. And overall i have grown closer to the Savior, felt his love for me. And I in turn have loved the people of Hong Kong. This is something that i could have never learned on my own if i didn't serve a mission.

Hello Everyone,

This week has been pretty good! I didnt have any time to write last week. But here is what has happened. I have moved areas. And me and my new companion, (黃長老), who is from hong kong, have white washed the 尖沙咀 and 九龍城 areas. We cover two wards here and we are in like more of the city part and so recently we have been getting lost because the city here is so big! Bigger than anything in america and yet it still isnt the biggest city in hong kong. But it has been fun. Just me and my companion live in our apartment which is a huge change because normally we there are 6 missionaries crammed into one tiny apartment that is smaller than my room in america but now we have the whole apartment to ourselves and it is pretty good! 

This week we have met with a lot of less active members. The previous missionaries were working with a lot of LAs so we just met them all. We have had about 3 lessons every day which had been super busy because we combined two areas. None of the investigators are really close to Baptism though but we will keep working on it with them. I am excited to be here and the wards seem super great. 

I Think that is enough writing haha ill just let the pictures do most of the talking.
