That means Happy New Year in Chinese!!

Wow y'all what an adventure it has been being in a trio here. It's

been in a word, Legendary. And I cannot believe a week has gone

by...... ok so the update on my life. It's good! We are working hard

and fast and furiously. Joseph is getting closer and closer to baptism

but he has to tell his family! We are hoping that he'll get that

courage soon. Also Jason is doing good! Working on repentance, which

we all know is hard so keep him in your prayers too. Ann is doing

amazing. She is praying about baptism this week and we know she is

going to take some convincing but there’s nothing the spirit can't do.

So she'll be fine. We were a little worried about Siv because he had

kinda dropped off the face of the planet but then we went to a Chinese

New Year celebration at the church and he was there!! He looked pretty

upset so we ate good food with him and practiced our Chinese writing

and it cheered him up a bit. I can imagine just a tiny bit of what

these boys are going through leaving their homes and families and

going to a foreign land but my land isn't as foreign as theirs.

Something that I really wanted to work on this week was my faith, and

knowledge in the gospel. Mainly because I wanted to apply the things

that I have been learning more, and I realized how much faith that is

taking. It's really intriguing the correlation between faith and

knowledge because as we know, "faith is not to have a perfect

knowledge of things; therefore if ye have faith ye hope for things

which are not seen, which are true." Alma 32:21 once we exercise our

faith and put the trust that is needed in Heavenly Father and his

will, we gain experience and it turns into a perfect knowledge. Faith

and knowledge are necessary in order to have a strong testimony and it

is amazing to be sharing that with the people that I meet here.

I hope you all had a fantastic week :) thanks for being so awesome.

Love ya
