Transfer 14 - Week 3

This week was a good one! At the beginning we didn't have any investigators with a baptismal date but now at the end of the week we have 2 and they're both really good. Well, one is really good and the other is on his way to being really good. 

There was some sad news this week, however. There were two missionaries serving in Sanchong who passed away due to carbon monoxide leaking from their water heater. Some old apartments put the gas heaters inside the apartment instead of outside so there is a risk of leakage. Our apartment's is on the outside so it is safe. Upon hearing this news, I was not confused as to why they passed away, where they are or anything like that but more concerned with these missionaries' families. Knowing the Plan of Salvation, I know that they are in God's hands now, as they always have been. They are alright and what we might deem to be unfair is simply because we don't understand it. I have faith in God, that He is ever watchful of us and of hope that we will do our best and overcome difficulties and trials through faith in Jesus Christ. At it says in John, "Be of good cheer. I have overcome the world." Christ has surpassed all things  and so can we through Him. Elder Xiong and Elder Thredgold are okay. It is my prayer that their families will not fall apart because of this, but rise together and feel hope in Christ.
This week we hope to be able to help these investigators we are working with better understand the Gospel and continue to develop faith.


Oh ya
