Well family, It's going to be a short one!
It was a solid week and we faced some major opposition but it's all good. We
really saw the Lords Hand this week and my testimony had grown in that He is
always mindful of us. K had his baptism moved to next week and has faced
a lot of opposition from family and friends in India and he has been a bit
worried but still is so committed. He knows it's what he needs to do and he is
going to do it! So we are beyond excited for him. J is also doing super
well. He and K will be having their baptisms on the same day and it'll
just be way cool, they have kind of been on the journey together in a way and
have sat by eachother at Church so they will really enjoy having it
together.
We had a solid Thanksgiving dinner this
week at the Edwards and it was lovely. I'm sure Brother Edwards sent you some
photos hahaha but they are the best. They always feed us and always support us.
So we have a good time when we are over there. We are teaching quite a bit of
Chinese students to be honest. Like 7 at the moment hahaha. It's funny because
both Elder Lindsey and I served in Britannia and we are just super super in
love with teaching Chinese people Haha so we find a lot of them up at the
university.

We had quite a few exchanges this week which
was super good. Hahaha It's funny because the elders get pretty sad when they
find out they have to use buckets to shower hahaha but it's all good. We should
get it fixed soon. It's super fun in the mornings too because we play football
with everyone for exercise and it's just a good time.
Lords Hand
We had a really cool experience this week.
So we had to buy some laundry detergent one night and while we were in the
store I looked at this man and just felt deep down by looking at him that he
was a good guy. He was with his Daughter and they just looked like a lovely
family. It was interesting because it wasn't a prompting of "oh wait for
this man and talk to him when he leaves the store!" It was just "he's
a good man, he would love the gospel." Elder Lindsey and I left the store
and I turned to him and asked him if he had felt the same as I did about the
man and his daughter and he did! So we waited for him to come out with his
daughter and we just talked to him! Turns out her had met a few missionaries in
a different area but hadn't really done much, so we talked and talked and we
set up a time to see him next week. His name is M and he is just
brilliant. It was just a super cool experience to see that the spirit didn't
give us a direct prompting until we asked eachother and it connected perfectly
as companions. We really saw the Lords Hand in that!
Well I love you guys. Sad the Utes lost. But
it's alright. Sweet that the leopards won!!!!! I love you guys!
No short cuts
