20 Weeks Remaining -November 10, 2013

20 Weeks Remaining
大家好

This Saturday our investigator Zhang Ren Kui is getting baptized. He is a super nice guy. He's a junior in college right now. My companion talked to him on the street the transfer before I got here. Then he's met with us once a week up to this point. I am excited for him.

Last night, we met with a less active Melchezidek priesthood holder (a person in our church who had been ordained to an office in the priesthood) and tried to help him become active again. The sisters and my companion and I made pork dumplings with him. He is super cool. He's in the Air Force and he was telling us stories from 20 years ago when China and Taiwan were not getting along. One time he had to fly near China and take photos of their military. So he got there and had to wait 15 seconds to take the picture but at the same time his radar showed two Chinese planes coming right at him to take him down. So right when the 15 seconds were up and the pictures were taken, he did a U turn and booked it back to Taiwan super fast. He flew back from the coast of China to Taiwan in 5 minutes. That is crazy.

This week we did a couple hours of tracting and talking to people on the streets. We had tons of rejection but I do have cool story. We were walking to dinner one day and we passed this guy who was smoking. I had a small feeling that I should talk to him, but I didn’t because I was kind of sick of rejection. So I kept walking. But then when we were like 15 feet away from him, I turned me head to look at him and he was looking at me. So I waved and he waved back. So I went up and started talking to him. He was pretty interested and we ended up giving him a Book of Mormon and hopefully he sets up a time to meet this week.

Hope everyone’s doing well!
Love,

Elder Chatman
