OKAY so we are teaching Huang Ama and she doesn't want to get baptized because we don't take pictures during baptismal services. It is the most...interesting....concern we have ever encountered! But she got super heated about explaining to us that pictures are her life. I have never met a more technologically advanced Ama (ama's are over age 75) tbh. Anyways- we are working with her! The funny thing about Ama's is that they are kind of like children. Like with Huang Ama she randomly tells us when she has to "go" or starts complaining that she's hungry or thirsty and expects us to do something about it~ Sister Nolan and I just kind of look at each other and shrug our shoulders like "bro we are only 20 and broke but there's a water dispenser out there for free".
One of my favorite things about Huang Ama is that when you do what she wants you to do/something that makes her happy she says in English "WUNDIFL!" and you can't hear that and your day not be made like it makes ours :') we love her so much!! hahahahah
I NEED TO TELL YOU A MIRACLE. Do you remember Huang Jing Rong from last week? The super cute mom that came for the FHE at the Jiang Family? (see pic below) She is INCREDIBLE! She is one of the most prepared people I have seen while on my mission. We got to meet her again on Thursday and she comes in and sits down, whips out her Book of Mormon and goes "teach me!" We taught her the Restoration and she loved it. It helped her answer so many questions and we invited her to pray to know. She said, "What I love about this is that humans try to seek God but God went out seeking Joseph Smith to be the prophet." Huang Jing Rong then set a baptismal date for September 30th and she is super committed to it! You could feel the Spirit teaching her the whole time as so many things she said were things you can only learn through a humble heart and God. It was such an amazing lesson. Huang Jing Rong came to the ward activity two days later and then brought her son to church with her on Sunday. Her son's name is Simon. So cute:') We are meeting with her tonight at another member's home! Pray for Huang Jing Rong!!
I love 台灣 and the 台灣人 with my whole heart. I love this work and I know that this is the Lord's work! I love sharing about our Savior each day and firsthand witnessing miracles God performs in the lives of those who have faith. The gospel is so cool. It's true! 我超級愛你們－我希望你們在這個禮拜都能夠感受到神。 我知道這福音是真實的。 我知道當我們去悔改我們會透過耶穌基督的贖罪的力量得到寬恕. I love my Saviour Jesus Christ.
all my love across the sea~~~~~~
