Week 33: February 24, 2020

大家好！

I decided I'd do something a little different this week. I'm gonna pick a couple highlights from each day (if I actually have highlights) and write it down to see how it goes.

Tuesday: Went to the World of Beatrix Potter attraction in the lake district. Lets goooo Peter Rabbit haha

Wednesday: I got back to Manchester YSA! My new comp is Elder Stayner, he used to be my zone leader so hes amazing. It's actually so fun serving with him. I seriously missed YSA so much, there's way too many highlights to pick one so I'll do a quick 3. 

1: Street contacting on Oxford Road! Literally did it everyday for 3 transfers but I lowkey missed it. 

2: Met Michael again! My first baptism, he's amazing! I saw him randomly on the street and that was the happiest moment ever. Literally couldnt stop smiling :)

3: BEST CHAPEL TOUR EVER. We gave a chapel tour to this really young Chinese couple, they're both students at the RNCM (Really good music uni like right across the street from the chapel). But zhaoyu (the husband) plays piano and jiayi (his wife) plays violin. When we got into the chapel, we asked if he wanted to play a song from the hymn book! He sight read “I Believe in Christ” and played it soooo well. The Spirit was literally so strong in that chapel tour, they're definitely getting baptized haha. I might've almost cried like 6 times while he was playing but don't judge yall would've too

Thursday-Saturday: just a lot of finding on Oxford road :)

Sunday: chinese group! I got to talk with all the members again, have church in Chinese which was soooo fun, and I got to see Jeremy again! I seriously love the people here

I'm actually so excited for this next transfer! Elder stayner and I get along super well. We both work really well together, we have good unity in lessons and everything! Also, the new chinese speaking missionary is coming tomorrow so we're both really excited for that!

爱你们哦！
