Hello Family and Friends!
This was another great week for missionary work! Elder Kelemen and I saw tons of awesome miracles!
Last week we met a father out on the street and talked to him for a little while. He lived in America for a long time and that is where his twin daughter and son were born so we waited with him for a little while for his kids to get dropped off from school. They are so cute and they came to English class this week so we set up with them and get to meet with them tomorrow! I am super excited!
Yesterday, we went to church with no investigators so we were a little disappointed, but at the end of sacrament meeting there was a Japanese guy walking around in the foyer and miraculously there was a father at our ward from New Zealand. He went to Japan on his mission but this was the first time he ever came to the Chinese ward so it was a miracle he was there and could talk to him in Japanese.
On the way home on the train we talked to a girl who was just recently baptized as a catholic but after talking with her for a little while she asked us about our church's difference and we shared about the restored gospel and the Book of Mormon and she was super interested! She said she was going to read it last night and we will find out tonight how it went!
And last night we ran into a girl last night on the streets that was looking for the hospital so we walked her there and showed her how to get there. She is from China and said she just got to Taiwan but she doesn't have a husband. She only has a little girl so she is really struggling here. We helped her get to the hospital and we will meet with her tonight. She is super interested in the gospel and is excited to meet ward members!
Those are just a few of the ones we saw this week! It has been awesome in LinKou! We are still trying to find people to really commit to baptism but the work is starting to really pick up now. Sadly we haven't been able to meet with the Russian family for about three weeks and I am starting to get worried.
Last week for P-Day we got to go ice skating and it was super fun! I love ice skating but what we didn't know was that there were three groups of missionaries that all planned going there without the others knowing so we ended up with like 50 missionaries there... Whoops
I love the work and love the church! I can't believe how fast time goes! Elder Kelemen just passed his one year mark and I was in the MTC with him! I can't believe it!
Sorry, we are both bad at taking pictures.
