Hello family,
How is everybody? Poor Kami is sick.
This week was pretty good. The sisters in my district are flying. Last Saturday they had two baptisms and two (more) baptismal interviews! So this Saturday they will have a 3 more people entering into the covenant of baptism. So Good.
Sorry I know that my pictures are huge but I want them that way so that when I get home I can make a sweet slide show. Sorry that is bu fangbian.
Yes sisi about boys. It changes in our minds. You can ask Sarah about when she found out...
This last week we had zone conference and it was really good. I got to see my MTC companion for the first time since Christmas. And after the main part of Zone Conference, there was a leadership training meeting and we talked for about an hour about how best to run DTM and things like number formats and such.
So today before we emailed, as a zone we went to see a ton of monkeys. It was sweet. There were a lot. And some of them were really mean. But that might be because we weren't supposed to feed them....

Right now we are teaching a thirteen year old kid whose mom is already a member. He has some problems and doesn't believe in God because his dad died a few years ago from cancer. We have only been able to meet with him once so far but zhang di di might be a really good young man after we get done teaching him. Right now he is making all the wrong choices and will probably end up being a taike if he doesn't change.
This week I did 3 baptismal interviews. One lady asked me "why do people hate Mormon's so much?". She had seen an American movie where the two main characters got lost and found themselves in a nasty, dirty, dark place. One of the characters asked the other "who would ever live in a place like this, it's so scary." and the other person replied "maybe the Mormons." Anyway. I didn't know how to answer her question. What I ended up telling her is that most people don't understand and that they just don't know. And then I gave her examples about how in the past, the true church of God has always been persecuted. Jesus Christ for one. And I just happened to have a picture of Moses and I asked her "why did moses have to part the red sea?". She didn't know. She only knew that he did it. Then I explained that he had to do that to run away from people who were trying to kill the people of God. I also gave a few more examples. But I don't think I really answered the question of "why?". What should I have said?
Ummm I don't really know about calling on Mother's Day. All I know is that it is on the last week of the move call.
Oh yeah. I had to buy another journal because I ran out of room on mine. I wrote it all up!
See ya in a year,
