Reece's Preaches: Cockroaches, Temple and the Emergency Room

Hello!

Sorry that it has been so long since I wrote. Well, since everyone has little Reece to talk about my letter probably was not missed much- but if anyone is curious we didn't right on Monday because we went to the temple this morning. I love the temple! I actually chose to do a session in Chinese so that I could be with my companion. It was so cool! My second adventure was that I went to the emergency room on Saturday night. It's a long story but I am fine and just left with some pain medication for my sore back. Apparently I am not riding my bike correctly and have caused some pain in my lower back. But all is well! :D Oh, and the exterminator had to come this morning to take care of our COCKROACH investestation. It's so gross! and they fly!!!

As for call's home- I have decided that I don't want to Skype, I just want to call. Can you call me on my Monday morning? That would be the best for me. I will find out what my phone number is and get it to you next week. I think it's just easiest to have you call me instead of my trying to figure it all out. Let me know next week if that will work. I am looking forward to the packages! Thank you!

This was a fabulous week! The Lord blessed us with some awesome new investigators. I am learning more each day the importance of doing through, guided-by-the-Spirit planning each night so that the Lord can work with our plans to work miracles. One such miracle happened while we were waiting for an investigator outside of a shopping mall. While standing there we started making converstaion with a lady selling clothes outside of the store. Through talking with her we were able to find out that she is a widow of 10 years and willing to let us visit her. Right there we were able to teach her prayer and we are making plans to go back and continue sharing the gospel with her. I love looking back on the day and seeing all of the little miracles that the Lord blessed us with that day.

These next couple of weeks we are going to be working hard to help a Miao Jiemei get baptized this month. It's going to take a lot of good planning as she is very busy and is still waiting for her answer that God exists. But we have the faith that both of these two issues can be overcome with diligence and prayer- both on our part and her's. She is doing really great at reading and praying daily but doesn't feel that her prayers are being answered. Basically she isn't recognizing the promptings the Spirit is giving her. So this week are trying to use the list from PMG Chapter 4 on the different ways the Holy Ghost communicates with us to help her recognize her answers. I haven't actually been able to sit down with her a lot since I have moved her, but I love her already! While we're striving hard to have a baptism this month I am trying to focus on baptizing and enduring soul, not just a number. Please pray for us!

Okay, I am out! The picture is me and Sister Wang in front of the temple this morning. I love you all! Be safe and CPR!!
