Howdy everyone I wanna know how everyone's week was don't be afraid to hit me with an email reply tell me how your week was!  My week has been pretty great it started out a little bumpy and I was just struggling with some things and just trying to figure out a lot of things but I just had gotten alot of answers which was really helpful and good. We had zone conference this week and it was just amazing so spiritual and I learned so much! We studied the plan of salvation and studied Moses 1 and oh my goodness Moses 1 is stacked! Yall gotta take a read because I learned alot this week!  We also studied alot on the atonement and the sacrament which really helped me this week just trying to become the best version of myself as a missionary so that was amazing.  The craziest story that I have this week would probably be that this kid I met playing basketball at a park like the first week in my mission randomly showed up to mutual and church and I about cried bc he remembered na...

Shots Fired...Literally

What's up everyone! It's been another week here in Richmond and it has been amazing! This week was packed! We had alot of lessons but also too many lessons that fell through :( . But we are getting there.  Elder Hsu and I have been spending a Lot of time finding which is good! We had a good finding week but now we gotta see who really wants to learn about this message. But some of the coolest things I saw this week were just small miracles on how the spirit works through everyone if you allow it to. This is something as a missionary I'm trying to understand and recognize more because it is so mysterious sometimes but we have to act as missionarys we can't sit around and waste time thinking about what the spirit wants us to do because most often times just taking actions in faith just usually makes it work out. I was able to listen to a fire mtc talk from Elder Bednar this week about this topic and basically the end message I learned was to just keep moving forward in fa...

It's been wild out here in the 510 there are people everywhere who need the gospel it's amazing! We've had some miracles this week and I think our biggest one was yesterday.  After church we had a lesson planned with Rick a new friend we met this week and as we are driving there he canceled.  But right away we felt impressed to go visit a friend named Patrick we haven't been able to get in contact with for about a month now. And I was just like we can knock on his door and if he answers great we can try to schedule a time to meet and if not then he's probably not interested. Then when we knock on his door and when he saw us he was so happy to see us! He invited us in and we had an amazing lesson and he had so many questions and was so open to learning about what we had to say! He was saying how just before we showed up he was just thinking about us and how he hadn't seen us in a while and that's why when he saw us when he opened the door he was so happy beca...

Hello everyone this email won't be too long but I love you all sooooo much! But if you saw the title the rumors are true....Elder Hsu and I are companions again! It's so crazy that we are companions so early on especially because we are supposed to be in training still but idk it's working out so far!  It's definitely been a huge increase of my stress because I am called as senior companion so I am having to lead the area and making sure we are using our time wisely until Elder Hsu is a lot more comfortable with the area but for now I've been whipping him around Richmond showing him around! It's been especially spiritual with him and its like we lost no time together we are comfortable with teaching and with working off of eachoth It's great! We were even able to get our new friend Jerry on date for baptism on first contact! He was so in tune with the spirit and already had a testimony of the book of Mormon he was so elect! We are excited for him and excited...
