Hey everyone! This week went by so fast (Probably because last p-day was on Wednesday. :P)
Time to get into the good of it all :D
So Thursday, I went together with Elder Love, because Elder Merrell had zone business stuff. Super fun, it's super awesome to teach with Elder Love. We traded at like 8:30, and were going to teach at 10:00, take the hour trip to Ma On Shan, teach there, eat there, take the train back, teach 3 lessons over there. So we were at his place doing comp study when we found out that his first appointment couldn't make it. So we went over to Ma On Shan and ate, and My appointment canceled (Got a hold of Anti Mormon stuff. Super Chaam (Miserable) but I'm sure he'll learn the reality of our message.
So we went right back over to his place to run back and forth between lessons. We taught an old man who doesn't know how to read (son of a farmer) named Brother Lee. He's super nice, and he loves to shout "GA YAUH LOU LIHK" (In English it doesn't make sense. Sort of like press forward with strength? Literal translation is add oil with effort, so...) And he's trying to get work off to go to church right now. Then we had to sprint from his house over to Chen Hing Daais in the later part of the night, super dark, and we went through a sketchy shanty town. Elder Love let me know he didn't know where we were, so we knelt and prayed and instantly felt where we should go. The Lord sometimes gives us challenges to see if we will remember that we need to ask.
On Friday I wore my new Uniclo socks, to do personal study and forgot to change them. So I had bright blue socks, which is totally against the rules. So I went and changed pretty quick when we realized ha ha :P That day during my hour lunch learned how to play Viva la Vida on the piano. :D So much fun!!
Then we finally got in contact with Norton and met him at his house. He's doing so well! Progressing so quickly, his baptism will be on April 17th. I look forward to seeing him get baptized and I knkow he will have the faith to do so :)
We went singing finding Saturday night where we just stand on a sidewalk with a banner and sing. We totally have the Nearer, My God to Thee 4-part down, and I always add a new part. 5-part harmonies are awesome, and a few people video taped us that we were able to talk to.
On Sunday it was Fast Sunday, so we were super hungry after church and Brother Lee invited us to come eat all of his leftovers before he goes to Utah for a week. So we ate until we were stuffed (By the way, it was Cow Tongue Soup) and then they gave us a half pear/half peach to try. Luckily his English is perfect so we were able to understand his stuff.
Alex came to church this week, and that was awesome!!
Thanks so much everyone, See ya next week!
