Week (39, 40,) 41 A story about prayer 6/22/2020

Hey!!!!! Here is a little update on mission adventures with Sister Chou!

The beloved Sister Shay is now back home (I love you Sister Shay) and now I'm with Sister Romney! She is so awesome and makes up songs for all the scriptures we memorize. Ah she is so awesome. She's also just always super happy and just ready to grind and work here in Torrance! We spent a week in our old apartment and then got moved to a new apartment! We were going to get a third sister, but ended up not. But now we have 2 extra beds and a lot of extra space, hopefully we'll get new sisters soon to share it with!!

This week we met this guy from China, but he's in New Zealand now. He came to LA a year ago and saw the temple and tried to go inside but was then led to the visitor's center and took a tour. Then he finished his visit and got busy and went back to China, but recently he decided he needed to know about God and then moved to New Zealand. He was in contact with one of the Chinese sisters in the VC, and now she has gone home, but we met with him this week! We'll pass him on to the Chinese speaking missionaries pretty soon, but his lesson was so fun! He's already reading the Book of Mormon and learned a lot of things already. Also funny story about his lesson. During his lesson, he told me I could start with a prayer, so I did. Then after, we thought he meant he was going to say the closing prayer and that Sister Romney could say it next time, so we were like okay! And then he proceeded to say a prayer right then. Ahahah Sister Romney and I thought it was so cute but also trying not to laugh because we thought it was hilarious. That was a good one. Also, at the end we invited him to pray every day, and he was like, I like saying it with missionaries better. And so we were like, oh! We can call you every day and pray! And he was like ooh no no no no it's okay I can pray. So funny, AND THEN that night we created a group chat and he sent us a voice recording of his prayer...we weren't so sure what to do, but we are so glad he's praying!!!! He is so awesome!!

Our other friends are good. We had a lesson with Tina about baptism this week, and it went so good. She progressing towards her baptismal date so everyone please pray for her to feel the love of God and have the strength to continue!! And we also got to do a drop by with our friend Eric! Basically we can just go to their  door step and drop something off and can say hi and stuff and talk to them for a second of course with social distance and face masks. But we brought him takis and got to talk to him in real person. It's been so long since I've seen this kid and ah I just have missed it so much. Both me and Sister Romney are super thankful we can do this now! We just bought sour candy for him so hopefully he likes that for this next week.

Okay that's all I wanted to share today haha I love you all, your Father in heaven loves you, and I hope all of you are safe and well(:
