Part 2: Week 27--Hen Kuai

The Temple was lovely and peaceful. I realized I would actually love to go back to Chinatown for my last transfer. I think it would be a positive and good experience. Whatever is Heavenly Father's will, but I think it could be good and fun! I love that cute ward!

.............................. .......

A came to church on Sunday and to scouts! And she came to our members home for an FHE. It is truly amazing that she has connections in the ward already. Her daughter did cheer with another girl in primary (Mighty Mite Pal), and A used to teach one of the youth when she was in elementary school! A said, "thats why she was always so sweet and well behaved. Because she was mormon!" Her children love primary and scouts.

T is progressing. We walked with her as she picked her kid up from school (5 minutes) and taught then and a lesson after. She has been reading the book of mormon and her son Nevaeh wants to be as obedient as possible and sleep as well as possible so his mom will be able to take their family to church (he really wants to go)! It is awesome how the 4 families we are teaching have kids who truly encourage the parents to keep commitments and get so excited for us to teach and visit. 
Mamale is hoping to go to the temple soon and is continuing to learn about family history.

Sister Au is a sweetheart. She is so genuine and caring. She is a wonderful teacher. I realized how Sister Au and I are truly able to have balance and look to each other to equally share insights and listen to the needs of our investigators. It works so well and we always teach with the spirit rather than with our own "talent" or social ability . I am thankful for that. I recognize that all of the good and joy and sweet sweet people who continue to want us to return is attributed to Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. It is not by our own strength. I am thankful. But I am so grateful for our leaders and their kindness and service and love for others. We are all brothers and sisters trying our best to do the Lord's work. 

2 Ne 25:23
It is by grace that we are saved, after all we can do. And I am so thankful for those who "labored diligently to write" these records, so that we could have knowledge and truth of God's love for us and of eternal salvation. What a gift! Countless people devoted and sacrificed their lives for us to have these records. Truly a gift and a blessing. So thankful.
