Hello! How is everyone? Time is really fast when you are having fun! There is so much to learn out here on the field. It really is a great time to drop bad habits and develop good ones. One bad habit I am trying to drop on my mission is procrastination. Its been good so far. It really is a great time to develop Christlike attributes!

This week was a great week of finding! I am getting darker actually because we stay out a lot. I will probably buy a whitening lotion haha! I had a good mindset for finding last week! We only had 3 full lessons last week so most of the time we were out finding. It was good, met a lot of good people on the streets! Its really fun meeting people with different kinds of characteristics. On my mission, I encountered two people who pointed the middle finger at me. It is pretty funny! 

This week one of our investigator Sean, is going back to mainland. So he can't make his baptism. Its sad but I hope he finds the church in China. On the other hand our golden investigator Richard received a baptismal date. Hopefully he can make it cos he is currently looking for a job in hong kong. It is pretty tough, most of our investigators are going back to mainland. Its the time of the year were Mainlanders either find a job or go home. So its pretty tough for us Mandarin missionaries right now. But its alright, just have to keep on finding the elect!

Pretty good week! Hope you guys have a great week! I know Jesus Christ  lives. If we rely on him we will be blessed!

HK 14 Balance Between Difficulties And Satisfaction

Hi Fam,

Wow Its June already Its amazing how time flies so fast! This week has its up and downs, just like a normal mission! You may think I am having the smoothest time of my life here in Hong Kong but I tell you it's been a roller coaster so far! There is a balance between the difficulties and satisfaction. Its really great I love it! A time for growth and a time to develop good habits.

This week was a week full of finding! Our investigators are really busy right now. We only had 2 lessons this week. One with Richard and the other with Jason. Richard was the guy we found on the bridge. Apparently he is so golden, he has been very receptive with what we are teaching him. He had another good time in church. He also wrote a story about us meeting him. Its really cool knowing how the investigators feel. He is pretty solid right now. The Kenyan woman we met 2 months ago turns out to be super golden too. We got her number 2 months ago and gave it to the international Elders and she is getting baptized on June 21. 

It was really hot last week, so 7 hours of finding was pretty hard but it was all worth it. Sometimes it can get tough but I pray for the strength to continue. It was really crazy when we met this weird man. I asked him if he speaks mandarin and he said " Get Lost" So we left and continued walking. But I don't know what was up with him, he came to us and started cussing so hard. It was pretty scary at first but then it was all right by the end. Its funny meeting different kinds of people everyday. 

One thing I have realized this week is that every day isn't wasted when you are out on the streets talking to people. We might not get a lot of numbers but I think every time we are out there we are planting seeds into people. You just never know what good you do.

I know we have a Loving Heavenly Father and he has a plan for each one of us.

Til Next week!
