ON THE BRINK OF MANGO SEASON

If I can just say like one thing. I don't think anyone's missions turns out like you think. or what you expect. 

so expect the unexpected. but always expect MIRACLES>

Two weeks ago.... while at the McDonalds we were talking with someone about the because he lives video and this lady comes up to us so excited to see us! She just said that she was sitting there looking at us and thought, I should go talk to them. First she had the courage to come up to us, and we had the amazing moment to have just a quick lesson with her. She was talking about Sister Mao (a sister back from like 2013)... She is actually a former! We set up with her and go to her house, she still remembers so much, and i even saw a "No other success can compensate for failure in the home" sticker on her lamp. Of course, we checked to make sure that she wasn't a secret less active, and got to teach her about baptism. She is so excited for her baptismal date of May 2nd! And Sister Tate and I are so excited too! Within this past week she has gotten to attend a baptism, and come to both sessions of Sunday conference! Coming to church she was able to see people that she recognized and meet lots of good new friends! It is really exciting to see. Her prayers are so sincere, and it just goes to show that no effort is wasted. The earlier efforts of those sisters weren't, and she just needed her time, in her prayer she told God that now is her time. Before she wasn't ready, but now she is. Her name is Sister Lai and she is so funny. and cute. I will send a pic next week. She is just so excited, and I don't know what else to say other than, God loves us, Loves her. loves this ward and HE HAS A PLAN.

Another huge miracle was with our less active Lu JM. She has not been to church since she was baptized 4 years ago. She came to Saturday afternoon session of conference and Sunday afternoon session, it was so happy. We met with her after each session and she was so happy that she came. She made a good friend, and really did get a lot of revelation. We also learned a lot about her. We are really coming to understand her concerns, on a different level. We are just trying to help her rely on Christ and not the missionaries. 

AND ALSO WE HAD CONFERENCE. SO GOOD. SOO GOOD. SOOO GOOD> just watch it. I just can't. 

AND PLEASE. Practice the music. 

YOU KNOW THE PEOPLE WHO WERE DANCING LOOKING STRANGE AND PECULIAR TO THOSE WHO DID NOT HEAR THE MUSIC. LETS SHARE THE MUSIC OF THE GOSPEL WITH EVERYONE.

In Chinese gospel is 福音 (fuyin) which directly translates into the blessed and good music.

and that is what it is. 

and it is simple. 

just pray, read, church, follow the commandments. boom. safe.

LOVE YOU ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL <3
