New missionaries!!!!
Nihao family and friends!!!
The highlight of this week was getting 19 new missionaries into our zone! 5 sisters, 14 elders! Many of the elders already knew some Chinese so it was a little intimidating talking to them because their Chinese is already much better than mine, but it has been super fun showing them all around the MTC and helping them adjust to missionary life! I love all the sisters so much already, i feel like we've known each other for years! It was super fun having interviews with them and just getting to talk to them one-on-one about how their doing, their families, what they like to do, etc. They are all so sweet and so full of faith! It has also been fun having more people to play volleyball with at exercise time!
This week the language has been a little harder for my district, and we had to take an assessment exam and such, but we all are determined to work harder, pray harder, and use every minute here wisely! I know the Lord will help us do His work as we are obedient and diligent! I love my companions and district so much and I love our Lord, Jesus Christ. I am so grateful and happy to be here despite all the surface level ups and downs, there is always an underlying joy and peace that comes from the gospel and from serving with all your heart.
2 Nephi 31:20 "Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the words of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: ye shall have eternal life."
Attached are a couple fun pictures from this week including a selfie with the new sisters at zone prayer and a homemade meme pc my companion sis morgan ;)
Have a fantastic week!
Love you all!
