The Lights

Hello!! Well this week was so good!!! We were able to teach Praewa and she is doing awesome!! When she came for her first "real" lesson she came with, 1. Triple combination (BoM, D&C, and PGP), a Bible, a YW personal progress book and a for the strength of Youth Pamphlet!!! She was so prepared! It was awesome!! haha So we started with the Restoration, and just helped her to understand who Joseph Smith really was, b/c she had said she heard his name a lot, but didn't know really who he was. Then at the end of the lesson we asked if she believed that Joseph Smith had this experience and she basically responded, "Well yeah, of course, other wise we wouldn't have any of this" (referring to her stack of books) AHH!!! So awesome!!!! So she is doing so great! She has said she will get baptized when she get's her answer but hasn't yet accepted a date, so we are going to work on that more this week. But she is doing so great! I just love her to death! Then we had 2 new girls who came to English class this week, came to church as well! Their names are Champoo and Yong. They are ADORABLE! One of them is already Christian and seems sooo interested, she really just wants to learn more! And the other, Yong, isn't quite as interested, but she is still coming to everything, so that's good! So I am way excited to continue to teach them! This week I had the best opportunity ever to go see the floating lanterns!!! Like in Tangled!!! AHHHH!!!! It was sooooo coooooolll!!! It was some festival, i forget what called, But it was way awesome! They had tons of the floating lanterns and then there were fireworks going off and these awesome boat things! Ah it was just way cool! We didn't have much time so sadly i didn't get to send one up myself, but it was still so cool to see it all! Then this week we also had a halloween activity!! It was sooo fun! No one here really knows what we do for halloween, so we just played some random halloween games with them. 1st we had them all "make jack-o-lanterns", they don't have pumpkins here so we had them just color them, then we bobbed for apples which was hillarious! They loved it! And then we did doughnuts on a string which was also way fun! Over all it was soo fun! It was such a great way to get our investigators and members to get to know each other and build relationships outside of church! So it was awesome! It think that's about it for this week! I love serving and just being a missionary! It's so fun! I love helping others come unto Christ! It's so amazing to see people change! AHH! Anyways, love you all! Hope all is good! Love, S. Itri
