So glad to hear from you and to hear how you all have been!
Let's talk about some cool stuff this week. We had the opportunity to meet with Tyler!! The same guy we taught at the MTC. He was so fun to talk to and to hear his story and all the things that have been going on in his life. Really cool to talk to him. He is struggling with his testimony right now and just wants some new friends. I AM ON IT!!! He is really cool
We had probably the best street contact ever this week!! We had just gone on our normal route in Tai Po and we went to the industrial area where there isn't a lot of people. We lapped around it a couple of times and we headed back to our apartment.
We noticed a guy was following us for a while and would some times come close to us to hear me babbling on about True Grit. I was telling Elder Beeson about it since he had never seen it before. We were one step from our border line and a voice came from behind us saying "Are you guys from America?" We turned around and found a native who could speak fluent English!
He said he had been following us for a while and was wondering who we are and what we are doing here in Hong Kong. After explaining who we are and why we are here, he began to explain how awesome we are and how cool we are for sacrificing 2 years to come to Hong Kong. He said the people here are so busy and so mean that no one wants to smile or talk. And sadly, it's true! He asked if we could answer some of his questions he was having about his life.
We found out that he was getting married in June and was thinking a lot about that. He asked us about Caffe and our church meetings. He asked where our church was and said he would like to come. HE INVITED HIMSELF TO CHURCH!! WHAAAAAT?! He is leaving this Friday to go to American to see his family and his fiancé. He won't be back till December 15......BOOOOO! Lets hope he remembers us and Elder Beeson will still be my companion until then so he can finally teach some one. I have an Audio recording of the event with more detail so I will send that with some pics. He was so cool to talk to and had some really good questions. Our prayers were answered to have someone to talk to and it was literally the last part of the night. Prayers are answered here and it is so cool. It is hard here to find new people, but I will just keep smiling and trekking along.
Today we went to the mountain of the 10,000 Buddah's! I have never laughed so hard in my life at some of these statues and how they looked!!! I took some really good pics and some monkeys showed up! I hate monkeys they are so weird! Plus there is a place called Monkey Mt where they will come and steal your wallets......Little thieves!
Again I am so grateful for all of your love and support you have given me while I have been away and the love you have been sharing with my family while I am out here in the field serving the lord! Remember he is there to catch us when we fall and to help us when we need help to most.
I love my savior and am getting stronger every day reading and praying. I would encourage you all to feast on the words of Christ and to get to know him personally like I have!
I LOVE IT HERE!!!!!
Yours In Fellowship and love,🍜✌🐼🐲
