Hello! So much spiritual experiences last week. We had Mission Leadership Counsel and General conference. Man, Those were crazy days, my brain is pretty sore right now. Today would of been a great day to go to the temple, the AC broke tho so there is no temple day today...

This week we were able to meet with most of our investigators and our RC's and LA's. The lessons we had were filled with spiritual power. Scot is awesome! We met with him twice last week. His desire to learn has been great and he's been more receptive recently. That was a miracle, he finally understands the Restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. A miracle this week was when we had to move Scot's lesson 30 minutes back because district meeting ended a little bit later. Well, we got to wan chai 30 minutes before the lesson. While we were calling people, a man named Mark came in and asked for a priesthood blessing. We gave him a priesthood blessing and he thanked us so much. He told us to remember that day. We invited him to general conference and he came. We sat with him for a session, he definitely learned a lot as the prophets were talking about being a father. That was a great experience.

Well, let me share a couple of thoughts that I've had from general conference. I just love the simplicity of the message from President Monson. Those short 4 minutes were powerful messages from the Prophet! He indeed is a prophet. The Priesthood of God is here, the power of heaven is upon us and we have to be worthy to be able to exercise it. We choose our destiny. The decisions we make now have a lasting impact for the eternities. Helping the needy was one thing that stood out to me as well. We have to have the desire to help our brother and sisters who are in need of our help. I loved the testimonies of the apostles during the conference, you can just see the spiritual mantle that they have. It was ended with an amazing talk by Elder Holland. We really do have to just keep trying. We are not perfect, but we have to try! Well, let us all apply what we have learned from conference.

I had a couple of questions right before conference and all of em were answered. It was great, the conference was filled with so much spiritual lessons. I am so grateful for their examples and wonderful talks. My testimony has been strengthened again. I know that Jesus is the Christ and he is indeed my savior and redeemer. I am so grateful to be part of His work. I will be forever grateful for those 2 missionaries who taught mom and dad. What else could I ask for more? A happy family anchored in the gospel. I love it.

Have a great week!

Hello everyone! Great week, it was a test of faith!

So last week all of our investigators didn't pick their phones up. So, it turns out all of them went back to mainland for the holidays. Well, we hit the pavement hard last week. It was great, we were able to find a couple of great potentials. Elder Forston goes around trying to guess peoples family name. And he guessed one right! He said " Ni hao Chen Xian Sheng, Ni Jin Tian Zen Me Yang?" The guy freaked out and it was a great way to start up an awesome conversation. So, finding has been really fun recently, just gotta have fun and talk to as much people as you can.

We had a great Leadership training with President Lam as well. We were able to talk about some concerns about the mission and we revamped some systems with in the mission.

Church last Sunday was awesome. Partaking of the sacrament is very important. It is an expression of our willingness to the savior. I was pretty disappointed last week with investigators not home and people on the streets not caring. Well, I would take the experience last week as something to be learned from. I was studying about faith last week and how I can apply it into our ministry. Then a sentence popped into my mind as I was studying. "Faith in the will of the father". Then It reminded me of a talk by Elder Bednar where he asked this man suffering from cancer if he had the Faith not to be healed and that he has an important mission in the spirit world. Do you have the faith in the will of the father? There are tons of days on my mission when its super hard. Giving your all but not seeing the fruits can be deteriorating BUT I have the faith. I know that the efforts I am giving are not wasted. I just have to continue working hard and giving my all. Submitting my will to the Father. I just love Heavenly Father. I am so grateful for the many things that I have learned.

Next week will be awesome tho! With new investigators coming in with our old investigators I think we will have a great teaching experience next week.

I am so excited for general conference! Have to prepare myself for the many revelation that I can receive! I know that what they know is true! Christ truly lives, his teachings are applicable and has been a blessing. I am so grateful that we are Blessed with LIVING DAY PROPHETS as well. Heavenly Father continues to speak with us!
