I ♥ To See The Temple

We have been called to proselyte on the SUN!!

This week has been very busy and way WAYYYY too hot...

Just to give you an idea at least for this week, it will be 109° every single day! Today however we got lucky and its only 111!! So I'll keep you posted on how my heat stroke turns out! 😁

This week was very exciting and its finally settling in that I'm coming up on a year!! We got to go on our second Temple trip for the mission! I love getting to go as a missionary and feeling the Lords love for me. I will drop some sweet pics of me and Elder Crowther! 

Thursday: 

We got to go meet with Evangel our Recent Convert. She is so amazing and I ended up helping translate/ helping with paperwork. She took us out to McDonald's and she whipped out a ton of stuff she needed help with. So everyone was pretty much confused why 2 white guys were in the middle of McD's screaming out Chinese trying to file paperwork! It was pretty fun and we were glad to see her! 

Skipping to Saturday: 

We got to go and teach Louise. She is so amazing and has fallen in love with the Book of Mormon. We were planning on finishing teaching her the Plan of Salvation, then we asked her how her reading was going? She said "Very good. Can I share some scriptures with you?" We very quickly realized she had read from the start of 2 Nephi through half of Alma in like less than a week.😲 We were there for more than an hour while she shared all of her scriptures she had marked and loved and had questions about! Super excited to see how she continues. We are so grateful for her!

Sunday: 

We had our Chinese Sacrament meeting were everything is in Chinese. We had over 50 members there which was a new record. They are really hoping to make them a branch very very soon! We had 5 investigators come to church- Louise, Shanon, Julia, Jenny and Ada. 95% of our teaching pool is women lol! But it was a great experience! 

We then rushed out to a pizza shop to teach a lady by the name of Sunny. She demanded we speak English, but if she didn't understand we could use Chinese. We taught her how she can know God exists! She was very excited to read the Book of Mormon and ask God about it! 

Very exciting week full of our FAVORITE.... Asians!! 

我爱你们!!!!
