Well I am getting transferred back to Hong Kong
Island. You would think that I would be super happy, but again I have a
mix of emotions! It is amazing how quickly you fall in love with an area
and investigators.
It seemed like we were just starting to figure
things out, just starting to develop a relationship with the investigators and
just starting to meet with new investigators. I know that this is the Lords
work though and I don't need to fear as He has a perfect plan.
So all the visa
waiters in the mission have their visas, which is a bummer for us because
President Lam likes to put the visa waiters in Mandarin work. So sister
Tang is the first to leave tomorrow and that is why I am heading back
to the island to "fill" her spot. So my new companion is Sister
Grover. I am excited to meet again with old investigators and she says
the work is starting to pick up on the island!
This week we met with
an investigator named Luchine. We met
with her twice. She is probably the
sassiest person with the most attitude I have ever met, but I love her because
she reminds me of well…me…haha.
The first day we met
with her I untderstood absolutely nothing she said (she talks so fast).
It was super frustrating as I just had to sit there and could not add anything.
Well, two days later we
were meeting with her and I had been praying to be able to understand her to be
able to contribute in the lesson and another miracle.. I understood! It
was also such a great lesson and she agreed to come to church! She
doesn't like coming to church and thinks it is extremely boring. This is
the only thing that is stopping her from getting baptized.
During this lesson we
tried something different and tried talking to her in a not so
"serious" way and we were able to laugh and give her sass as well and
she loved it. I realized that the spirit can testify to someone in
lots of different environments and to teach people not lessons! I will
for sure miss her.
Another miracle this
week was we were calling people to try and schedule them and we had a potential
that we met in the park. She said she had no time this week so we said we
would call her later on in the week to see if something free'd up.
Well, about an hour
later she called us and said "are you guys wanting to meet every
week?" We of course said yes we would love too and she said okay I
am free on Friday! Crazyyy!
The spirit definitely
was working on her and I am so glad she was willing and excited enough to call
us back!
Well that is about all
for this week! Wo ai nimen,
Sister Loo
