This has got to be a stretch of great days yet on my mission! I have been uplifted by the spirit and edified in hearing from our prophet and apostles of the Lord. I am also glad to hear that you all are doing fantastic and the weather is giving you much water so you will not die this coming summer. I have yet to experience the summers here in Hong Kong but from what I have been told you will never be dry again from the rain and also from your own sweat, Echt! I am glad to hear that our neighbors are going to be grandparents! So when are my siblings going to make me an uncle???? hahahahahahah Just kidding! But seriously when! I will not waste any more of your time cause there was a lot that happened this week! Thank You Grandma and Bokah Rob and the dogs for you love card for my birthday it meant the world to me!
On this weeks Episode of Elder Stan Theman (Elder Duersch) China Hong Kong mission!:
The Most Magical place in earth!: Yes I was able to go to Disney Land this P-Day and it was the coolest thing every! The park is dramatically smaller than that at California and we were able to get all the rides done and go see a little show of "The Lion King" in one P-day! We were zipping around so fast that we just took it all in and it was so much fun! What an incredible P-Day! There is nothing really chinese about the park except that all the workers there need to speak Cantonese,Mandarin, and English. The rides that have voices are in Cantonese and I was able to understand some of it and it was super cool! I was able to Hug a Wookie, gear up with Iron Man, Pose with Moana, and buy the Infinity hat! It was a great day! SO many rides like home and it was just Refreshing! I love disney land and it was just so much fun to see everything that goes on in China with it.
Conference: I am truly filled with the spirit this week from hearing from our Prophet and Apostles to get new revelation and to know what we can do as saints to strengthen the work here on the earth! There was so many new things that happened this conference and one of the coolest things was the Solem Assembly and the spirit was so strong in the Chapel here in Hong Kong when that happened. It was a week ago that it aired when you all saw it but the spirit was truly there in the video and it was the best thing ever. My favorite talk was by President Nelson on how to better get Revelation in order to do the lords will on the earth. I have taken his challenge and bought a little book to write down the promptings I get and how I acted on them and the result of the action. I would recommend you all to do like wise!
Ricky and Connor: Ricky is doing so well right now! We taught him the restoration and he is one of those that is prepared by the lord to hear our message. He came to conference and he was confused with the new things that happened and our ward helped him out! He also said that he really wants to go into the temple to see what it was like! We are meeting with him this Thursday and going to teach the Plan of Salvation. Connor met with the Senior Missionaries this week and we invited him to go and talk to his mom about letting him get baptized. The spirit was strong and he really wants to get baptized into the church! He is going well and we will see what happens with him.
Exchanges!: I was able to go on exchanges this week with Elder Fakatou! He is just a big teddy bear! We just had a great day and talked a lot about our home and he is Born in Australia whos ansestors are Tongan and he lives in London and speaks Cantonese! Wow that is just a massive diverse of culture! It was so much from to be with him!
Well that is all I got for now please re read to words from our leaders and apply them into your lives! I know they are called of god and do there best to help us out! I love all of you and am always very glad to hear from you all and to feel your prayers and love!
