Hai Bà Trưng - Phần Hai (Part Two)

Alo,


It has been another week here in the HBT area. Nothing too crazy happened, but we did get our news for the upcoming transfer! 

Monday:
The district went to a massive market in Hanoi to do some fun shopping. This places has everything you could possibly need or want - with hundreds of little shops selling knock-off shoes, bags, hats, and other strange things with famous brands. 

Elder Kotter and I specifically went to find raw fabric materials to make some suits. We found some people willing to sell the fabric for a good price, but we need to find a person to actually make the suit. The people who sell the materials know where to take it, but they charge you extra for them to take the materials and do it. After searching in the market we ate at Chops, a burger place, and then went to an American Import Store and bought some Root Beer. It was a great day. 

Transfer Tea:
I will be staying here in HBT and training a new Elder! I am excited. I know there will be some challenges and new things to experience, but I know it will help me learn and grow a lot. We are excited for all of the new missionaries. With all the new missionaries, mission tours and special devotionals, we are going to be quite busy!

That is all from me folks, send me an update on how you are doing. If any of you have advice about training let me know, I'd love to implement some ideas. 

Thanks! Love you all.

  Alo- Hope you are doing well and enjoying the Spring Weather. We are hoping to start getting some warmer weather this next week (meaning the grey overcast that has been here for the past 3.5 months leaves). This week I don't really have much to report on. Always Adjusting: This week was mainly just adjustment to the new area and assignment. This transfer I'll be helping as an Assistant, which is mainly a lot of behind the scenes work. It reminds me a lot of when I was doing Social Media work a little over a year ago - rather than managing the social media, you help with different aspects of the mission. There isn't anything extremely stressful or overwhelming -- it is just lots of small tasks you have to learn to do. My current companion has great experience in this role and has been teaching me lots. He leaves at the end of this transfer, so I am trying to absorb as much as I can to get it ready for the next transfer.  The Mission Branch: One aspect I have been enjoying ...

30 Chưa Phải Là Tết

  Alo, It has been a great week. After eating some delicious tacos and having a crossover with the Binh Duong/Phu My Hung districts in Saigon, we flew back to Hanoi in the evening. We finished our Hanoi Zone Conference and welcomed our two new senior missionaries. We've been meeting with lots of our friends and having member meals, which is always enjoyable.  On Sunday we had a man from China come to participate in a sacrament meeting. We aren't certain how he found out about the church, because he randomly showed up at the building. I helped "interpret" for him, but I could really only give him the general idea of what was going on. I was feeling a little embarrassed how little I could communicate, despite my previous studies. During the sacrament, I was just praying I could at least do the basics to help him the best I can. After we took the water, he tapped me on my shoulder and asked me a question. I had to ask him to repeat it 2 times because I thought I misunder...

  Alo-  This week was enjoyable having our MLC meeting and preparing for the upcoming transfer. Lots of changes are happening, which is exciting. It just means more unforeseen good things are yet to come!  Tuesday, I conclude my time as a missionary. Service as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has been such a blessing to me. Both written and spoken words are inadequate to share about what I've learned in these last 23 months. So I'd just like to give a brief, but sincere testimony: I testify we have a loving God, who is our Heavenly Father. I know he has a Son, Jesus Christ, who sacrificed his life for us. I've learned how God's Plan for us will lead us to eternal happiness and joy. I know as we repent, we can overcome our burdens and be strengthened by the Lord. I know as we read in the Book of Mormon and pray, we will have an increased knowledge of His love for us. Overall, I testify true, pure happiness and joy is found in Jesus Christ...
