Week 73 - Mosiah 18:30 What's your verse?! (Mormon:Georgia)

Loved ones,

What a week! It was quite a bit of meeting awesome people and then
them telling us the next day to not come back. But we also have had
some great experiences!

Our top investigator has been out of town for two weeks but we've been
reminding her to read and pray every day and she's been doing it! She
said she is so excited to meet with us when she gets back and we are
fasting with her on Sunday for her to receive her answer. This will be
the first time she has attended church! We're really excited about it!

We also saw the Chinese woman we met a few months back! We talked
through google translate and she was so excited to learn about Jesus!
It has been forever since we've been able to get into contact with her
and it was so great! She really wants to learn English and only wanted
to talk about how she didn't understand the Book of Mormon in English
yet.. I asked her if she was reading it in Chinese and she said yes
and that she LOVES it! Her face just lit up! I loved it! We are
getting Chinese speaking temple square missionaries to teach her with
us! She is sooo sweet!!

We started on bikes again this week and it was so fun yesterday! I may
sound crazy but it was down poring and we got drenched and I loved
every second of it! After telling us she didn't want to hear what we
had to say this sweet lady felt bad for us and invited us for some hot
coco (still think of Coco Louise every time). We talked with her and
her sister for awhile about what church was like for them growing up
and they were amazed by our dedication to our faith. Still didn't want
to hear anything but it was a good experience.

Our dinner appointment yesterday was so mad we didn't call her to come
pick us up haha. But we had fun in the rain. Luckily it wasn't a cold
rain.

In other news... I've been feeling for months that I should go home in
the January transfer and not extend but I've been brushing it off
because I wanted to stay here forever. Finally I talked with President
Bennion about it this weekend. After prayer and fasting I am coming
home January 12th. Pretty crazy! This is my last full week in Georgia!

I love y'all!
❤️
Sister Christensen
