So many miracles.  Not enough time!  Okay. This week I learned to NEVER give up on anyone. give everyone a second chance.

We met with this couple that we found last week and we didn't think they would go very far, but they had really good questions and one thing led to another and now they both have baptism dates! what?!

We asked one of our LA's if we could teach her son because he ALWAYS COMES to church. She agreed so we set up a time to meet. Friday arrived and we were sitting in a 7 waiting when he runs into us and whispers, "I WANT TO BE BAPTISED!" before running back out to get his mom. When we gave him a date he got really frustrated and told us that was too late. where did this kid come from? 

This week was the Mid-Autumn Festival which means EVERYONE is kaoroaing...BBQ. So it smells soooo good. Also, there's this fruit called Youzi that they peel and put it on their head :) the fruit is super magic stuff and has all this white stuff in it that turns your tongue and anything it touches numb. so my mouth was super numb last night...stupid me :) 

Who remembers Ling JM? well, she has been on and off for weeks. wavering...almost dead. We had a lesson with her this past week about why we go to church and it really helped her. Afterwards, my companion asks her if she believes the things we've shared with her, our church is true. She paused and then said YES!!! We then gave her a baptismal date for next month! SHE'S GETTING BAPTISED!!!

I've really learned how to listen to the small, steady, whispers of the Holy Ghost.  Last week we had an hour of LA finding and then a planned hour of finding.  We got to the end of our hour of LA finding and still had one more name we wanted to find.  So we decided to pray about it and we both felt like we needed to go finding in the place that we planned for the night before.  We went and started with a prayer and saw this family walking into their house.  We started talking to them and they had such a great desire to know. If we don't listen when the Holy Ghost prompts us we may miss the opportunity.  Literally, everyone that was out that night needed to hear our message.  This work is amazing!

We met quite a few animal friends. turtles, cats, rats. 

Remember to keep your chin up! 

Nothing can fall below the power of the atonement! No matter the mistake you can change :) 

and if all else fails drink some grapefruit juice!
