So this week was exciting with the transfer and trying to understand the work and the investigators up here in Kowloon. For once in my mission I am really looking forward to weekly planning so that I can get a better grip on the area and have a better plan on how to work. I am excited to see how the Lord will use me and excited to get to work! My companion is again from Utah (Lehi) and it seems like we will be just fine. I realized a couple weeks ago that I have been companions with all of my companions for 2 transfers or less and that has been a HUGE blessing. The Lord has definitely blessed me with more patience on my mission, but 2 transfers is the perfect amount of time with anyone :)
Yesterday we met with an investigator and she asked me if I had any miraculous experiences on my mission, any miracles or any experiences I could share where I truly saw the Lords hand in my life and my happiest moments on the mission. As I reflected on this I realized that I am the happiest when I can see others come unto christ, see the change that they have made in their life to follow Christ and to be a part of that process. It really is one of my most favorite things and am so lucky to be able to be a part of His great work! The gospel-our Savior, if we allow Him, can really change us!
On Tuesday we were able to have one last lesson with Michelle. She currently has a lot of family and work issues, but always finds strength and comfort from prayer. It was a great lesson and the spirit was so strong. We talked about finding peace in The Savior and coming unto him. We watched the mormon message "mountains to climb". She really was able to find peace from the Savior and said that while she was in mainland she went to a friend who is also christian church activity. At first it was good and they did much of the same things we did like a spiritual thought and sang hymns, but then it got weird and she told us she had to leave because "It wasn't OUR church and it helped me know that this church is true!"
This week we met with another crazy, super nice lady, but a little bit off. She kept telling us that she hopes that one day we can talk about our enlightenment and our path to enlightenment. We tried telling her that we were trying to share that right now, but she again stated that we are on different paths heading the same direction.. interesting.
That should be it! Love,
Sister Loo
