Week 49

Nimen Hao!!!!!

It has been a fantastic week! So many blessings!
 
Erika was baptized on Saturday! She was so very happy! Everything was wonderful. Her testimony so pure and sweet! It was amazing! She told the story of how we met her. She said it was a bad day so she was going to buy a book like she usually does on bad days. But then we started talking to her and asked if she could meet right now. She said "YES!" She bore testimony of how when she has a bad day she won't need to go buy a book because she has the best book, which is The Book of Mormon. It was so sweet! I love her!

I was especially touched by a specific talk from a sweet sister in the ward. She spoke of a trial that she had had and is continuing to have. She said that at one point she wanted to leave the church but knew she couldn't do that.She was reminded of the Savior's Atonement and was able to lean and rely on Him and continues to receive strength from His mercy. I was touched of how she told Erika to never leave the church. To rely on the Lord. Trust and turn to the Bishop and Relief Society members when you are need and know that through them the Lord can give you support. It was really beautiful!
We are really looking forward to Sister Liu's baptism on Wednesday. She also getting really excited. She has been waiting for this. We met with her before her baptismal interview and after the prayer she said "Finally!" with tears in her eyes. She said that they were tears of joy and I knew they were. I love her so much!

We had an amazing Stake Conference yesterday. It was actually a broadcast from Salt Lake and was to 19 Stakes in Asia. It was amazing! Elder Scott spoke and I was so touched by what he said. He spoke of the divinity and worth of women. We also heard wonderful talks of inviting others to come unto Christ, the Temple, and learning from Joseph Smith's example of receiving personal revelation. It was amazing!!!

Well....I hope that everything is going so great at home!

I love you all so much!!!!!

Until next week!
