你好 (Léih hóu!)

It's that time of the week again to receive my email haha how's everyone doing? How's Thanksgiving y'all? 😊 ... Also, Hong Kong is getting cold! It's 16°C today! Wow!

Anyways, update from last week:

We went hiking for P-Day! It's not a famous hike but Sister Wilson has been there before so she was our guide haha. The hike was exhausting but not that exhausting/hard compared to Hawaii hikes... Saw Shenzhen China on top view! 😄 (See all the pics and vids in the bottom!)

District council's discussion was about the importance of our covenants with the Lord especially when we are doing Windows of Heaven Finding... that we covenant with the Lord that we will stay in that specific place and open our mouths to every people that we will encounter with even though no one wants to stop and talk to us 😟 haha. Missionary work is great!

or there is a way to have White Christmas (baptize one person for each companionship)

Had Exchanges from last week and I was with Sister Alboroto (yay Filipina companion for 24 hrs lol). I was able to serve in [the neighboring] area again haha... It's cool to see her growth as a baby/trainee and how she does "windows of heaven" finding. She is a great missionary and I am learning a lot from her! 😊

Our Zone Thanksgiving party was fun too! Ate so much foods and played games with the zone. It's cool to have this gathering and be able to celebrate Thanksgiving with them 😊

Lastly, our Ward Thanksgiving Party was fab! Me and my companion shared our talents by singing with our wonderful voices (hahaha lol just kidding) the hymn "Gai Syun Yan Din" or Count Your Blessings. We also shared some of the things we're grateful for... "Y." (the one who comes to our English class) and her family also came! We were so happy to see them and we introduced them to some of the members. She's really a potential! 😄

Update for "Sister G." (recent convert): We continue teaching her her "after-baptism-lessons" and she's singing with the ward choir for the upcoming Christmas Devotional in our stake 😊

Great week! 😊 I love you all! I am very blessed to have the Gospel in my life and to know these things. I am grateful for Jesus Christ's Atonement and for our Heavenly Father's unconditional love to all of us... Remember that you matter to Him and He knows you personally 😊 He sees us as His child and as the being we are capable and designed to become.
