你好大家! 你地好?
How are you all? 😊
Me and Sister Madriaga had a great week! She's starting to open up now and enjoying the work 😊 She's like a little sister to me! I love training such humble, teachable, and kind baby/trainee 😊 Hehe.
When we were doing some calls, we were able to teach a lesson through phone! It even lasted for 15-20 minutes (whoa!). The person was really curious with some of the principles and ordinances of the church. Even though it ended up him not having that much interest (sad), I know and I feel that me and Sister Madriaga both felt the Spirit while we were teaching that person through voice call. T'was an interesting experience though! Haha.
We were doing our windows last week and bumped into a Jehovah's Witness lady. She's from somewhere in Canada and is teaching English here in Hong Kong for almost 20 years now. Since me and Sister Madriaga is not really familiar with their religious beliefs (aside from they only believe in Jehovah - which they consider as Heavenly Father(?)), we had an interesting conversation with her. When she started to debate with us, it felt awkward and we know that we have to stop this immediately. We bore our testimonies firmly that we know that Heavenly Father loves us and He has a plan for us, that Jesus Christ is His son who atoned for our sins, and that the Holy Ghost is the Comforter and revels and teaches the truth of all things (Moroni 10:5), and then we left her. Hopefully we left her with a good impression of us missionaries? Haha. Well..
We also met a 12-13 years old girl last week. We were out doing windows and after we prayed in, it stared raining! But we were able to stop this girl, introduced ourselves, and asked her if she has time to hear our message and she said YES! .. So we sat down with her at the pavilion nearby. She's actually half Filipino! Her dad is from Nigeria and her mom is from the Philippines. We were able to build relationship and trust with her and talked some things about the Philippines. Pretty cool! Then we shared the Restoration to her. She's a very smart girl too. She's so keen while listening to our message and since she's been Christian all her life, she said her knowledge has been added with the message we shared. Hopefully we will see her again this week as we try to schedule her 😊
There's more stories to share but I think that's it for now. Haha. Uhmm, we also got a message from our church leaders that there was a rally/protest going on last night here in [our area] due to some political issues and it's still going on until now (but less people I guess), so our leaders told us to be careful and just watch out. But other than that, everything's doing great. I love being a missionary! I love the gospel, love my mission, love you all!
