Rabbit- Rabbit!
(funny family tradition for the first of the month, if they are the first words out of your mouth for the day then in theory you'll have a great month... they're the first words I remember saying audibly so in theory this should be a great month)
This week has been crazy. But most of it happened on Wednesday so I think I already mentioned everything to you already. Training is loads of fun. I learn so much from Sister Au-Yeung about being positive when things don't always go our way... and about how to talk to people you don't know very well.
I want to go to Hong Kong now, but I may have to stand in line... she invites everyone we talk to (who is nice) to come and visit her. But she says that there are AMAZING science museums for us to explore together... so I'll learn how to read Chinese and by the time I learn I should have enough money to actually support a trip to Hong Kong. (*It also makes me miss Sister Foot a lot, especially when she cooks and organizes*)
As far as I know everything is good, the sun finally decided to come out and then we had trainings inside for the whole day, unfortunate... but the trainings were amazing (atonement of Jesus Christ and listening) One of our investigators (a nice old man who loves his family and adores his cat) got to meet with the missionaries and is going to church next Sunday, so we're so excited to hear from him. Another investigator just set a baptismal date for this month(yay). And our friends from Switzerland just got home from their trip so we can teach them more about the church (one of them kiteboards).
Also the good weather makes me want to go outside and study in the mornings, unfortunately it is still not quite Hong Kong temperature outside yet... maybe in a week or so. If there was a grove of trees around I would love to go and read the first vision in the midst of a bunch of trees, but there is one tree next to a grave marker that is within walking distance... maybe I'll go there. "I saw a pillar of light exactly over my head, above the brightness of the sun, which descended gradually until it fell upon me. When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!"
I am so glad that Joseph Smith had the courage to ask his question and get an answer from God. It makes me more apt to ask my own personal questions to Heavenly Father... because, let's be honest... the only way one can really learn more about anything is by asking questions and applying our discoveries to them.
Wish you the best!
