HAPPY HAPPY EASTER!!! 復活節快樂!

I just love Chinese. Because it just makes sense. Like Easter. Is 復活節(fu huo jie) which means the day of celebrating resurrection. Like how simple is that. So easy. Especially when you want to teach people about Jesus and His resurrection. (:

So that is what we have been doing, watching that video with everyone! On the streets, in their homes and at church activities, and english class (: yay!

I love it. Brings the spirit so much. And it is so true.

Where He walked
無論祂走到哪裡
Wherever he taught
在哪裡教導
Wherever he healed
在哪裡一醫治
He changed everything
祂改變了一切
Then everything changed
已切也都改變了
The man they called Master
人們稱呼她夫子
Messiah
彌賽亞
Friend
朋友
Was gone
走了
But the greatest miracle
但最偉大的奇蹟
Was yet to come
尚未發生
He is not here
祂不在這裡
He is risen
祂已復聖
He lives
祂活著
And because He lives
正因祂活著
If you reach out
只要你尋求祂
Call out
懇求祂
Cry out
呼求祂
He is here
祂都在你身邊
Then
過去
Now
現在
Always
永遠
He is here
祂都在你身邊
During the good
無論歡樂
The bad
憂傷
The in-between
或任何時刻
He is here
祂都在你身邊
No matter who you are
無論你現在
Or who you were
或過去是怎樣的人
He is here
祂都在你身邊
No exceptions
毫無例外
No lost causes
克服萬事
At all times
無論何時
In all places
無論何地
He is here
祂都在你身邊
He rose on the third day
祂在第三天復活
He lives today
祂今日還活著
Find Him
來認識祂
#Because He lives



Well, this week was much better, and it went so fast! WOW! I really think a huge blessing came from the trainer/trainee follow up meeting. I really think that it gave us some good perspective about working smarter, not harder. Focusing on not setting unrealistic expectations for ourselves. And really just stressing ourselves out. We refocused our goals, so we don't have so many and we just have the important ones. Once we get those then we can move on to new ones! It is really exciting, Sister Tate and I are working well together. And while I feel like we "chilled out" a little bit, our numbers actually went up! It is so exciting to see that there is wisdom in all things, and we can't do it ourselves. It really is God directing the work and all we have to do is our best, and be obedient. I think our prayers have also become more sincere and our desire is to be completely obedient. And that as we have done that, we have seen so many blessings. It really is exciting!

Some miracles that we were able to see was from our less actives, well not only this week, but all transfer long! We have been seeing this potential melchezideck priesthood holder come to sacrament for the 5th or 6th week in a row! Haha, I lost track! He is just always there! It is so exciting to see him make relationships with the members and I know that as we continue working with him we can help him become a strong priesthood holder. His name is Li Guo Long and he got up in sacrament meeting to bear his testimony, and all i had to do was smile. Because it was crazy. But the basic message was through Christ we can do all things. Haha and that's good (:

So exciting to see that when we listen to the spirit, the miracles that can come, we were riding our bikes and I saw a person on the side of the road... we kept riding, I waved and said hi, but as we went past, I kept getting this feeling like, go back. and so I fought it until we got to the next light and then, i was just like, ok we need to go back. Sister Tate was so supportive and she was like, ok. So we went back. And gave the guy the card, he was at work, and he didn't have time, and he walked away. But we  walked back to our bikes and there was another guy standing there, and we got to watch the video with him. So cool. He has met missionaries before, but he didn't have time. Got his number, great potential. But as we continued to talk with him.... There was a car accident on the other side of the street and this guy fell off his motorcycle and rolled. We heard the smack. It wasn't serious. But we knew that we needed to help him! We finally got to the other side of the street and found him, not seriously injured but bleeding, so we grabbed our water bottle and tissues and got him all cleaned up. Sitting there we talked with him and calmed him down, watched the video with him, had a lesson and taught about Christ. He said the most heartfelt prayer, thanking God for protecting him. He said that it really was Shen de anpai that we got to meet. So special. He is our new investigator. So exciting, especially because at the beginning of meeting him, he was just trying to brush it off like.... i am fine, i don't need your help. But then he let us help him, and at the end he was smiling. Cool to see the small change in people's demeanor. (:

sorry this email isn't as fun (: haha!!!
