HK 96 Light Up The World.

Merry Christmas!

Last week was really great, had a great week lighting up the world!

Last week we had a great Christmas yesterday! We went to church and celebrated Christmas! Chen DiXiong got confirmed yesterday so that was pretty special! He loves church! Although he is really shy his heart is full of love and charity towards the people around him. He will be a great member!

We visited 2 families yesterday. The Liang's and the Nash's. Good family and good food! We had turkey for both meals, so good! Yesterday was probably a really memorable Christmas. We had a secret Santa going on in our apartment, I got Doritos and a golden State jersey. That was pretty fun. I got Elder Evans a shirt with a cat wearing the Christmas hat. He loved it as well. The spirit of Christmas was really great as we were sharing with people.

We had a fun time singing on the streets of Tsim Tsa Tsui. We found a great place to sing and we sang a lot of Christmas hymns. It was really fun because the mainlanders were just all over! They crowded us and started taking pictures. They even came and started singing with us. Pretty funny! The mission really does put you out there...

The work is great. Elder Woolley is a great companion. What a great blessing it is to work with this fella. We have such great unity and we've seen so much miracles! I remember last year we would talk a lot about being companions again and we got what we prayed for and what we wanted. We did exert faith into the work though. We are having so much fun seeing Heavenly Father change the lives of people for the better even the better, best!

I love this gospel. I am grateful for hope that the gospel brings. I know that my Redeemer lives. I really do!

See you, have a merry Christmas and  a Happy New Year!
