Everything is going great in Hong Kong!

Hello Everyone!!
How are you!? Have you eaten rice yet? ;)
Everything is going great here in Hong Kong! Every day is so... special, in a special way. There are just so many random everyday experiences that I just don’t know where to start!!!
Like just a few days ago me and Elder Davis met a monk guy on the street... and gave us these cool little amulet things... that were in Chinese and we didn’t know what they said... we just thought it was funny that he would walk over and give us one... so then... we take it home and ask the native in our apartment... he laughed... I don’t know what it means... but apparently it’s funny? I’ll see if I can find out this week!... for now it is safely in my journal!
We went finding so much this week... Elder Davis and I came up with this genius plan... we live about 30 minutes outside our area, by bus, and recently when we’ve been contacting the only people that will talk to us are Ivy students.... and they are all coming from the same school... so the past two days we have been on a quest to find this school! Because as far as we know all those students are pretty willing to talk to us! We’ve found some pretty funny things (like a middle school called: Precious Blood Middle school... we were a little worried... but it’s SO funny!... and a big sign... I’ll send a picture home :) somehow when you become a missionary; it seems like all the things that made you laugh when you were 5... make you laugh again! hahah! ) and some pretty cool things and places too. FINALLY! Yesterday we found it! We talked to a kid who said he just got off school and that was his school!... and secretly found out when the school gets out!!! Aha! Yes!!!! Anyway... things stay pretty entertaining around here.
Our investigators are really good, they are all so cool! Frankie is doing great; next time we see her we are going to try to give her a baptismal goal for next month on the 13th. Her faith is so strong. I don’t know if I have said, but, before i really knew people didn’t like us, or our church for whatever reason ( none of them know anything about it... pretty dumb) anyway, here on the island people Really Really don’t like our church... they will say anything to get kids here to hate us! grr... makes me so mad! Teachers mostly... agh... Anyway... Franky is receiving SO much anti right now... to the point that its making her afraid of losing friends and last time we saw her she cried... it was so sad... but she says she knows that she is making the right choice, because of the feelings she gets when she prays and comes to church... she is pushing on so strong... keep her in your prayers, please!
Now Story of the week! This week has been pretty special, because all the mission presidents and seventy are here in Hong Kong and in the Wan Chai building that I’m in. so I see them all the time! It’s so cool! President (Elder?) Watson in the quorum of the seventy has been checking missionaries’ missionary stuff all week (planners, area books, member books, former books, all kinds of records) and he checked an elder’s former book in my apartment... as he was looking through it he said “if missionaries only knew the power in these books... “Then he made a promise “Every missionary in this mission has at least one person in their former records that is waiting to be baptized." ... wow... so later that day when I hear from that missionary that President Watson said that... I went straight to our former book and started calling... I came across a record of a boy who was 8 years old about 4 years ago... and I called him... he answered the phone and i talked to him for a minute about who I am and things... then I asked if he had time and interest to meet with us... he told me to wait and I heard him ask his mom in the background (normally all parents know about us... so I had basically given up... ) then I heard the mom respond "Yes! Can you come over on Sunday nights?" I was totally in shock!!!! So we scheduled them and then i went with Elder Davis on Sunday to meet them... we ended up teaching the Whole Family!!!!! (.... YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ) SO HAPPY! They are so amazing! so happy! after talking to them we found out so much... like how a few months ago the boy's cousin ( dads, sisters, son) Rocky... went on a mission to Australia!!!! And Rocky's whole family is members! so the dad knows a lot about the church and almost committed Dennis to baptism for us!!!! ... Almost... ha :) ... they are a great family! And we get to see them again on Sunday!!! I’m so excited.
The whole experience has strengthened my testimony so much... in following the promises of God’s servants on the earth... I know that the promises that the make to all of us... are 100% real, and true. It is so happy and so comforting to know that we have a prophet who guides and directs us :) when we follow him. we will be blessed. I’m so happy to be a missionary called by a prophet of God to share this gospel to everyone who will hear... :) it’s amazing.
Thank all of you for your love encouragement and support :) talk to you next week.
