Week 42 - Last man standing

AYYYY another week down!!

Another great week here in Tuen Mun. Actually now that I really think about it nothing really special happened this week.... Actually so do you remember that guy I talked about a month ago named Brother Yiu who had his records removed from the church about 20ish years ago? Yeah that guy, but anyways he has come to church every week since that day we met him, and something crazy happened, THE WARD FOUND HIS RECORDS!!! So it's so much easier for him to come back to the church. So when we met with this week we taught the gospel of Jesus Christ and focused it a lot on the first 2 steps Faith and Repentance, and at the very end me and Elder smith both bore our testimony and out of nowhere he bears his right after, and it was super powerful!!! He usually showed up to church in like some jeans and a jacket, and yesterday he had a tie, new slacks, and new shoes and you could tell they were recently bought!! This man is so powerful! And to make things even cooler right before church he asks the bishop when he could meet and talk. Man I love this guy he's so powerful and he's gonna be a fully active member in the months to come. So members have come up to us and were like "How did you find him" "he was a member way back in the day and I have no idea what happened to him" so its good to see the ward is also doing a great job helping him. (3 years later. Brother Yiu became a very strong member for the next couple of years. He helped missionaries teach, and passed and blessed the sacrament every week. Sadly when I met with bishop Yu, he said he recently had gone LA and Bishop Yu thinks it was because he got offended by another member. He still is very friendly and keeps in contact with members, but his church attendance has stopped since then. Bishop Yu says he keeps in contact with him still. Hopefully he'll come back. My biggest regret is that never got a picture with him before i left.)

and what else.... oh my buddy Elder Rostedt is back in the New Territories and I got to go on exchanges with him this week too. It was alot of fun, and also our English class that has been struggling lately was rocking on Friday and Saturday, so English class finding actually works. also the missionaries have also got some solid potential investigators the last couple of weeks because of English class, so yeah that's great, right?

Yesterday Jason one of the young men in my ward got the Melchezidak Priesthood this week and it was cool to see him in Elders Quorum this week.

Today we ate lunch with one of Elder smith's rc's (recent convert) from TST along with the TST and Kowloon City Elders, so it was alot of fun.

Yeah that was my week love you all!!!

Man why do I always forget important stuff.... Afung one of our investigators passed his baptismal interview he's gonna be baptized within the coming weeks!!!!
