"Oh come all you faithful, come and meet for lessons,
or we will come and find you and teach you anyways!"

I got my new companion Elder Fuller today! He is a total beast! I am really happy to be working with him. I hope that we can keep taking care of the awesome people we have and finding more. We didn't know what to do for P-Day so we stood on the roof for a while and then biked to Ikea and browsed around for no apparent reason, then went contacting!

The amazing Sister Luo met with us for a lesson today! The bishop and his wife helped with the lesson, and we taught her about the Restoration. The Spirit there is so strong, and we told her about the amazing message of God still talking to His children today. Whenever I share the Restoration the Spirit immediately comes in. It's truly incredible. She is so amazing too, because in her prayer she thanked Heavenly Father for letting her come in contact with us missionaries and said she'd been looking for a church for a long time. I was so happy!

And then there is the amazing Sister Zhan! She is a younger mother with two daughters, one of which she always brings to lessons with her and is super cute. We had a reading lesson with her today because she didn't read the Book of Mormon, and in her prayers she thanked Heavenly Father for the Book of Mormon and the chance it gave her to get to know Him. I'm just so happy teaching these people. It is truly incredible. The gospel is great. And Elder Fuller and I already have really good unity while teaching even though it was only our second or third lesson together. He has a really funny sense of humor and we laugh and work a lot.

We did weekly planning today since Friday we had to go to a meeting. It was pretty good. Then we met with an RC named Villa! She is such a good missionary. She loves reading the scriptures and learning new things. She also offered to invite her friend to a Thanksgiving party we were having with the ward this Saturday!

Secret MLC stuff. Can't talk about it.

Today we ran all over the city, but it's because we met a new investigator named Sam! He was a missionary referral, and he already has a baptismal date! So that was super exciting. He is a really cool guy and he has already read to Jacob, and he really likes chapter 5 for some reason. So he's pretty great. I love seeing people who want to learn! Because I love the gospel. Then the ward had a baptism of a member kid, and Brother Zhong came and saw it! He thought it was really cool. He is still working for a December 2nd goal. Then we ate a giant ward thanksgiving! It was amazing!

A day of freaking miracles. Sister Chen and Sam both came to church and stayed until 3rd hour. Then tonight we had two lessons set up, one with two people from the Philippines, and one with two people from Vietnam. The guys from the Philippines didn't show up, but later in the afternoon we went back to the park and found them sitting there, and we taught the Restoration and they agreed to meet next week! Then the Vietnamese guys didn't come, but we were riding through a different park and ran into one of us and he gave us his number and also agreed to meet next week, which was great! A day full of miracles to end the week!


I love you family and friends, and I know the Savior does too! Never forget to reach up for Him. I know He will always be there.
