Hello! We had a great general conference me and sister schade were so excited. it was actually sister schade first general conference in the mission field. this past week it was not really successful for us but we are not down. the past general conference helped me to have more faith, recenter on my savior. this week our investigators were still not able to meet because busy with work or out of town.
Saturday morning session was so special with the solemn assembly. i felt like the heavens were really opened and that the church of jesus christ of latter day saints is truly the church of jesus christ. i also felt like heavenly father really loves us. i am so grateful for the prophet jospeh smith his simple prayer who lead him to restore the church. it helped me reflect on how simple and small prayers and faith are and how great and marvellous things can happen, what an individual faith can produce!!!. it is something we talked about one time during disctrict meeting we were talking about jospeh smith while concerting on acting on the verse he read in james 1:5 he did not expected that big and sacred experience to happen.
One of my favorite talk was given by elder bednar on meekness, its a big thing that i observe around me, everyone truly need to develop this attribute.
On saturday after the morning session, sister toronto (expatriate in our mandarin branch) bought two large pizzas for the missionaries and for some other senior couples.
for dinner, we were invited by our relief society mandarin branch president with the elders to make dumplings and then eat together.
We met with molly on thursday in a library, we read the book of mormon together then she taught us more mandarin and i taught her french.
in the evening, we had sports night, we had 3 new friends joining us (one member).
it was also transfer day
Wednesday evening with the elders we went to visit the chen family, they actually forgot about the appointment. so we went there and talked to the domestic helper and she ordered pizza hut for us. we played with the daughters and the parents.
Tuesday evening, we went with the elders to visit our branch president. we ate together then talked about the work, less actives... then read the scriptures together.
Next week we will have our zone conference and tonight with the elders we will visit the li family, we are expecting to have korean food so i am excited hahaha
Hope everyone is doing great, Please pray so we will be guided to find our future investigators , pray also for our current investigators.
Love you all!
Sister colombel
