Hello! Great week once again. I have gained a stronger testimony once again. It was a great week of service and I definitely felt the spirit! This week was really interesting.
This week I
gained a testimony about fasting. So 2 weeks ago I started fasting for
our investigators, I fasted that I could feel the spirit more and that
we could have a baptism. So this week I was reminded that sometimes we
have to wait for our answers and that we have to exert our effort into
our prayers. So this week I was able to feel the spirit more. As we had
our Christmas party, I just had a happy feeling inside which I couldn't
explain. The feeling actually lasted quite a while, during Sundays
sacrament service I felt it as well. Crazy, I am actually having the
same type of feeling right now. So after sacrament service one of the
members introduced us to her son who actually took all the missionary
lessons already. So we reviewed all the lessons and he is a smart kid
and understands the gospel really well. So yeah, we are having a
baptismal service for him on the 27th of December.
So yeah, I think the things that had happen the past three days has
been an answer to my prayers. I have learned for myself once again.
Christmas
party was awesome! We were able to bring a couple of investigators and
they loved the program and of course the food as well. The missionaries
actually acted out a play. We did a play about "The Grinch" I was Max in
the story. If you don't know who he is go check out the cartoon. It is
funny. There are tons of kids in the branch and they are very cute. It
was a really grate time to gather and celebrate the birth of out savior.
After
Christmas party we headed to HKU to help a guy who told us to bring
food. At first I felt really bothered cos the guy is kind of mentally
challenged and I thought I would be wasting time. But as I was thinking
about it during the train, I thought of what Christ would do. Christ
would administer to anyone in need. So we went anyway and we gave him
food and shared a message about Christ. After leaving I felt the
confirmation from the spirit that we did the right thing. So that was a
good experience.
Cool experiences this week was
when we were walking by the pier, a gust of wind blew and heavy rain
came afterwards. It broke my umbrella in not even a second and we were
soaking wet. Elder Forston loved the experience because they dont really
have rain in California. So that was pretty funny but I was kinda
scared tho, ha! So during the Christmas party, they invited the
investigators to go up and introduce themselves. So we let Shi yeye go
up and guess what. He asked if he could sing!! So he started singing
with his ancient voice and the members loved it! He actually put on a
show.
Really great week, We had transfer calls
last night. So Elder Forston and I are staying. I am given another
opportunity to serve my fellow missionaries once again. I am called to
become a Zone Leader for the zone. It is kind of scary but I guess this
is another opportunity for me to grow and serve.
I
know the gospel is true. This church is perfect. I know that Christ
lives, I also know that Heavenly Father really does love everyone. He
really does.
