Dear family and friends,
This past week has been pretty normal. Tuesday we did exchanges in
the district. I got to to over to the other Elder's area with Elder
Bardsley. We had a lot of fun. We both have a huge liking for working
out. So we did a lot of it. Their investigators are doing really great.
And the college in their area is so great for finding new investigators.
We had a good time.
Wednesday was a continue of the exchange. I was just about over my
cold by that point. So I was much more lively than the few days before.
That night during english, Elder Stone and I switched with the Sisters
and took the little kid class. And like always, it was pretty hectic.
But I had a lot of fun! It's just a little party.
Thursday we went back to an investigator that Elder Stone and
Hanset found on exchanges. He's pretty good. But since we meet with him
at his construction site, all his workers like to joke with him during
the lesson. That makes it pretty hard to focus. But they all like us.
Then we had a long afternoon trying to visit less active members. All of
them weren't home. It was pretty rough. But that night we got to watch
"On the Lord's Errand" with Zhu dixiong. He liked it a lot. It helped
him with understanding prophets a lot more, especially President Monson
in general. Then we had a mini exchange for the other Elders. They had
an emergancy two golden investigators in seperate places. So we split
with them. I got to be with Elder Bardsley again and sat with a really
great guy named Wayne. We taught the Word of Wisdom and he already had
no problems whatsoever!
Friday after weekly planning we biked out to Tianzhong and met with
a really nice less active. Then we went to find a recent convert that
stopped coming to church and doesn't want to answer our calls. He wasn't
home, but his dad let him in. We had a great lesson with him and he
likes us a lot. That could be a great start to getting a hold of our
recent convert again. Following that, we saw a bus back into a
building. I nearly crashed from laughing so hard. Our other recent
convert lesson fell through. He's 80 years old and forgot we were coming
and went over to a friend's house.
Saturday morning we got up a little earlier and played ultimate
frisbee with a bunch of returned missionaries in our two wards here. It
was a ton of fun. We then had an early morning last minute lesson with
Liu dixiong. He's doing pretty well. We watched "Finding Faith in
Christ" with him and got him to commit to the Word of Wisdom. Then
later that day we had a great lesson with Zhang dixiong with a great
peike. It was all on faith. And he loved it a lot.
Sunday we had a great turnout at church. We now have Sacrament
meeting first. Our Elder's Quorum president brought a friend and he
liked church a lot. He doesn't have a whole lot of time to meet during
the week, but our president will keep up with him and he'll come to
church next week. So good!
Well that's pretty much my week. It's been a lot of fun! I love you
all! Sorry I'm short on time. I keep you all in my prayers! Until next
week.
