When we were on exchanges this past week, we ran into some
of our senior citizen Chinese friends at the park. We got there just in
time to join their Taichi session. It was actually somewhat difficult and
strenuous controlling all my movement, but it was fun. The missionary I
was on exchanges with had never experienced that before. Some people
around the park were looking at us a little funny, two guys dressed up in white
shirts and ties doing Taichi with a bunch of older Chinese people.
I attended my last Mission Leadership Council.
Bittersweet, but I'm excited for the path that the mission is on. Upward
trend! We always have this really good pizza at lunch at MLC, and I've
become addicted to eating it with ranch. A couple MLC's ago, they didn't
have salad, so they didn't have ranch! Travesty, I know. So for my
last one, I ensured I would be able to dip by bringing my own! Don't
worry I shared with my table too.
We had two awesome new members move into the ward.
Both the husband and wife are from China and joined the church there.
They served missions and attended BYU Hawaii, where they met. We're so
excited because it's an answer to our prayers. We've been praying for
strong members to come in to help bolster our group as we work to establish a
branch here. God answers our prayers!
We were in a lesson with a member, and her 10 year old
daughter made a funny comment while talking about her 8 year old little
brother. She said, "Sometimes I hug my brother because I love him. Sometimes
I do it because I want to annoy him!" It reminds me of my childhood,
with an older sister, and later, a younger one!
last mlc with my "son"
aid bye to Bishop Garcia. He's moving to
Georgia. We're going to miss him!
