It was a good week! I think I always say that. This one was terrific. Missionary work was a bit slower from Monday to Friday and we didn't see much happening: Nobody was picking up their phone, people on the street were ignoring us and no one had time to meet with us. But we kept working hard, prayed harder, set some goals to focus more and on Saturday we were allowed some leeway. We met a "Terry" and he when we met with him he poured out all his life problems and wanted to know how to deal with it all. We taught him about Christ, His Gospel and how following His teachings relieves us of the burdens we all have. He said he's willing to try it out and trusts what we say. We also called this referral a while back and invited him to church. Sunday morning came around and he came! He said he felt very touched that us strangers would reach out and try to bless him with our church. He also said he wants to learn more. The only thing is that the latter doesn't live in our area, he lives in the district over.
We've set some goals to only speak Chinese to each other and not talk about anything relating to home or "trunky" things. So far so good! We've been really trying hard to focus on the work and do as much as we can in every aspect. Of course, whatever we do isn't much but it's our hope that the Lord will recognize our efforts and give us the opportunity to see miracles. Looking forward to another good week!
Love you all!
