Week 47: June 1, 2020



Hey all!
 

Not a super exciting week, but also a lot of things to write about!

First, it's the “why i believe” devotional on Facebook live again this next sunday! Everyone go check it out, heres the link to the event https://facebook.com/events/s/why-i-believe-devotional-faceb/2584607965120859/?ti=as

This week the prime minister announced that all stores are opening by June 15! I think. Also now we can go meet with people in person, as long as we're outside and 2 metres away. So lockdown restrictions are finally starting to be taken off which is exciting 

Also just want to let like the 10 of you that told me I needed to get outside that this week I actually went outside haha. Also I'm surprised that many of you actually read my emails. Well elder chen and cheang hate running and stuff so a couple mornings this week we went right outside our flat and I ran back and forth on the block like 1000 times while they watched. It was super boring and not very fun, but at least i got outside right?

Last Monday we started jump scaring each other every opportunity we have which has been super fun haha. We've been doing it all week. At first no one was safe but Elder Cheang and I found out very quickly that Elder Chen scares VERY easily, and has the best reactions too. So that being in mind I did what any lockdown missionary would do. I'm making a video compilation (dont worry Im doing it outside of proselyting time ok haha). Its pretty funny, and I'm still in the process of making it cause I'm actually terrible at remembering to record. My favourite scare literally had me laughing for soooo long and it wasnt even an elaborate setup or anything haha. Elder Cheang wanted to test exactly how jumpy elder chen was. So he stood right in front of elder chen, had him close his eyes, and then after a couple seconds did the “BOO” noise you make when you're jump scaring someone haha (sorry I'm not very good with onomatopoeias). Elder Chen, knowing elder cheang was there the whole time, literally jumped so high haha. And as he came back down and landed he tripped on his feet, falling backwards where he luckily crumpled into the couch. It was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Words dont do it justice. I literally thought he was faking it but he's really just that jumpy haha

Also fun fact, we taught elder chens mom over video the other day! His mom has been taught by missionaries before but now shes actually interested in learning about the gospel. It was sooo amazing, they're definitely getting baptized! Itd be good since all of elder chen and cheangs family aren't members
