Nyob zoo,
This week we met a lot of awesome people. On Tuesday, we had about 30 minutes before we had to go back to the apartment, so we wanted to find "the one person" who was interested. So we started driving around for about 5 minutes just driving by random houses until we felt inspired to go to one. After a while, we felt like we should go to a house, so we stopped the car and went to the door. We knocked on the door and a lady named Leda answered. It was really cool because it ended up being someone that Elder Fielding had met at a Hmong party a while back. We ended up talking to her for a little while and she is super cool. It was a cool experience.
We also met a guy named Vaaj and he isn’t a member, but his daughter is a returned missionary and right now she is attending BYU Hawaii. He is semi-interested, but it would be cool if we could teach him because of his daughter. We also met a young college student named, Elijah. While we were talking to him on his doorstep, he brought up a concern that he had. He said that he hasn't been to church for a while because all the churches teach different things and he didn’t know how to know which one was the true church. And as missionaries, that’s the question that you want all people to ask you because that’s exactly what the message of the restoration answers.
On Thursday, we were doing weekly planning and all of a sudden we had the impression to call a potential investigator that we met about a week ago. We called her and we talked to her for a little bit and then all the sudden she said her grandson wanted to talk to us. So we talked to him and his name is Yungti Thao. He is from Laos and just barely returned back from his mission to Australia about 2 months ago. He was really awesome and still had the missionary spirit with him. He really wanted us to come over and share the message with his grandparents. We went over there and we met with them and they were super awesome and it was really cool because the grandson was able to share his testimony of the Book of Mormon with his grandparents. It was really cool to see his love for his grandparents and how much he wanted them to know that our message was true.
On Sunday we had a family home evening with all the Hmong members. We ate some bomb Pho and then after, President and Sister Williams came and they shared a brief message with us all. Everyone really enjoyed it and it was good to be able to gather with everybody and have a good time together. We are wanting to set another one up so we can continue to invite some more less actives and investigators to come and continue to fellowship more people.
During this past week in studies, we talked a lot on faith and having more faith. We wanted to do our best to eliminate our smallest thoughts of doubts and have 100% trust and faith in God. And throughout this week we were able to see lots of awesome things. For example, one day this week we set a goal to find 10 potentials for that day, which is a lot. We went out and were able to find 5 very promising families and I know that is because of us finding with faith.
Have a great week.
Love,
