Hello!
What a week... It was really different from last week... but good in it's own ways.
We met with Sister Xu this week and found out more of her financial problems. It is really so sad. She is so far from her family. She has so much faith. We are a little worried about her though. We had an appointment with her on Thursday but she wasn't home. Her phone is off and has been almost all week... We have gone to her house everyday but she either hasn't been home or we have no way of getting up to her room... We're a little worried about her but trying to have faith that she and everything is okay
We met with another investigator Sister Liu.. She heard about a few commandments last week at church so she had some big questions when we met with her... Well she said she has a problem with all of the commandments. We had an amazing member with us who bore a powerful testimony of all the commandments and the Spirit was really so strong. Sister Liu has a strong testimony of Joseph Smith and the Restoration and she said she would pray about the commandments... We are meeting with her again tomorrow and pray that all is well with her.
Other than that... we have found that with Chinese New Year approaching and everyone having tests before hand, everyone is busy... SO BUSY! So we are noticing a lot of investigators and new people we meet saying to wait until after New Years...
But we are keeping our chins up! We are still seeing miracles!
We had an amazing activity this Saturday... a tour of the church. A lot of people know where our church is and go by it all the time but haven't come in so we had a church tour. It was so good! There weren't a ton of people there but it was a good turn out. A sweet young woman, Sister Xiao, bore a powerful testimony of the Savior and how the teachings in Young Women's has brought her closer to the Savior. It was really powerful.
Today is Sister Wainright's birthday! She is now 22! I love her so much! She reminds me so much of Whitney Robb... It is so much fun serving with her! I love it! She is so sweet and easy going. She is awesome and I love her! To celebrate her birthday we went to an all you can eat hot pot with out district and some members. It was so much fun and we ate way too much... way too much! But that's what it's for...
I am sorry this is so short... We got to email a little late so I don't have a lot of time.... but I'm sending some pictures to make up for it!
I love you all soooooooooooooooooooo much!!!!
Until next week!
