Week 62

Wow what another great week in the HK. So to start off, apparently  Saturday was the 20th year anniversary of Hong Kong being given back to China, and there was a massive celebration, a huge firework show, and apparently the President of China was also in attendance. Yeah we just had a English class, and last second was asked to go to the Hong Kong Boy Scouts open house to meet a member's friend. But it all worked out pretty good. At the event I was able to talk with the member and her friend for a good 15 minutes, and also saw a lot of less actives there too, and got to talk to them for a little bit as well. 

Also yesterday we decided to do round 2 of random member visits and delivering a home made cheesecake to some member families. We decided to do a thank you run this week, and visited the Bishop, and the Lai family. It was super good. We got to sit down and get to know the families better, and just share our appreciation for everything they have done for us (which is a crazy amount) They are some great families and so blessed to get to know them. Out of the 15 or so thousand members in Hong Kong ( about 12000 of them are not active) There are honestly very few members in wards that will put in as much effort to help the missionaries as these people, so we just really wanted to express our appreciation. 

A member from Kwun Tong also fed us some traditional Chinese food last Friday. Pictures to come from my reactions!

That's about it!
