Had a great week here again. We had a lot of stuff fall through this
week but we had a lot of miracles with those we were able to see.
We were able to see the An's and taught them about baptism, they had
such a great understanding of it from reading 2 Nephi 31 before hand
and they had some great questions. We invited them to be baptized and
they didn't accept it, it wasn't really any concern. They feel that
it is so important and they want to make sure they can keep the
covenants they make for their entire life. It was great to see them
understand the significance of baptism.
Then another great thing this week was church. The An's both came and
loved it and Thianxu received a little more instruction for playing
the organ for sacrament next week. He is going to do great! We also
were able to get them gospel principles in simplified Chinese which
helped them understand a lot more of the lesson.
Moe also came to church! It was awesome, I was sitting with the An's
near the front of the chapel and I saw Moe go up to bear his
testimony. I was so nervous he was going to say something crazy! But
he got up and bore simple testimony of how the blue book (Book of
Mormon) has changed his life and how much he loves the missionaries.
It was awesome! He got to meet a ton of members and just kept telling
us he couldn't stop smiling. It's great to see him make some bigger
strides towards baptism.
Another awesome but unrelated day was Thursday. After district meeting
we celebrated Elder Beatty's birthday. With a piñata! Lol.
Also, Thursday night, we had a branch Halloween party, it was unlike
anything I have ever been to. They did a dance and we couldn't really
participate so we wheeled the ping pong table into the other room and
played a bunch of members. Elder Pead beat about every member there
that wanted to play, and I waited till his ego was over inflated and
dethroned him. It was a bunch of fun though.
That's about all the news for this week. Thank you all for everything
you do! Love you!
Elder Parker
