This week has been good!
Last week for p-day the sisters from my MTC group went to Cheung Chau (aka my favorite place in HK) to celebrate our one year mark! It was so fun to catch up on our lives and hear how everyone has changed in the past 10 months since we were all in the MTC together. Lots of laughing and story-telling and... sweating. Summer is here, folks. I'm not ready.
Other than that, nothing too crazy has happened this week. We taught cute little Jacky Chan again. He's been to primary a couple of times now, so when we asked him about Jesus he said that he knows that Jesus loves him and that Jesus loves the little kids, so that's definitely some progress! It's so fun to see even the testimonies of little kids growing. I love this work.
In other news, God is really furthering His work here. Since getting our smartphones, the work has been going so much faster. Like, we're no Philippines or Brazil yet, but we may be getting there! Maybe? Anyways, everyone and their dog in Hong Kong uses this texting app called What'sApp, so when you try to call them or text them normally (aka our only options when we had Nokias), it was really really hard to contact people. However, since getting What'sApp, we've made sure to spend some time every day just going through our formers, potentials, and less-active records and What'sApping them, and we've been able to reach so many more people than we ever have before. It's amazing and such a blessing.
So I guess that's my testimony for this week. God is in charge. We got these smartphones at just the right time, and if we always rely on the Lord as much as our mission leaders do, everything else that happens in our lives will happen at just the right time too. Isn't that a comforting thing to know?
Love you all. Thanks for all the love and support, I'm so grateful for each of you! Gayauh!

4. Us and Jacky! Note Grandma Fu in the background. She's really sweet and always forces fruit on us and also most of the time she just mumbles things in another dialect of Chinese so we mostly just nod and smile.
