This week has been one of the best weeks of my mission! And I know there are future best days to come because we have been teaching Anthony and Melloney!! They are absolutely prepared by the Lord. We taught them the Plan of Salvation on Thursday with a great member (stake pres. son). It went really well! They didn't have many concerns about it, they felt it all makes sense and they like the teachings of this church more than what the Catholics teach, it goes on and on with solid comments. We gave them a soft commitment to be baptized, soft because we were at their house way too long, and needed to get back to the flat. They said if they knew it was true by then, then yes they would! So that was a decent answer, but they came to the Chinese new year party at the church the following day. They got there late due to NO GAS in the car, so they said they wouldn't be able to make it really, I said "Well we will be there with a member in 10 minutes to help you out" we bought a gas can, filled it up enough, and helped them out. They were so grateful and payed us back and things, so they came! That was the main focus! (Just to let you know, they were completely out of gas...they didn't use it as an excuse to not come, they were on there way and their car stopped completely, ha ha) So they had a wonderful time at the party, the members were so great with fellow shipping, they all became friends immediately! That is always good to see! Then the next day (Saturday) Anthony came and played football with the us and the ward! It was so fun!! So more friends/fellow-shippers are involved. Then Sunday they came to church and they looked really nervous, but it went really really well!! In priesthood, there were 2 Indian kids that were ordained the Mel. priesthood...ha ha that was a little nerve racking to have our new investigator see stuff like that ha ha, but I quickly explained it to him, with using pictures in little pamphlets we give out, and there are pictures of Christ ordaining his Apostles the priesthood. So I told him its completely normal, we do what Christ has done, because its his same church he established. He took it in really well! The relief society's lesson was on gift of tongues...again, not the best first lesson for a solid family to come experience ha ha, but it went really well, they loved it all, they love the members and how the family is very focused on. U could say so much about yesterday but I don't have the brains to explain it all that well ha ha, but it was all wonderful and many good experiences! I have felt the spirit so much this week!
We will be seeing Anthony and Melloney on Wednesday, teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and emphasize on BAPTISM!!! So pray for them and for us to deliver the message in the Savior's way!
Transfers are this Wednesday. I heard rumors that I'm leaving, but its not true. Ha ha I better not leave, I'll be so mad, but it's not going to happen, I don't think it's part of Gods plan.
Anyways, I love and miss you all so much! Thank you for your love and support, couldn't do it without you!
Hope all is well!!
Cheers!
