Wo de pengyou,
Nimen Hao! How is everyone doing?
So not a lot happened for most of this week. So this might not have a ton of details.
Tuesday night devotional was given by C. Scott Grow (no, even I couldn't make up that name) of the 70. He was a little weird, but still a good speaker. Then we had choir practice for Nashville Tribute Band which was on Sunday and was amazing!
Wednesday was pretty sweet. We went in to teach a lesson to our investigator (which we do everyday now by the way). So we had a lesson prepared, but when we got in there, she asked a question, and we went off an taught a completely different lesson that we didn't prepare at all! IN CHINESE!!!! It was insane! It was a great lesson, I used Alma 32 to compare Faith to a seed. The spirit is amazing to tell us what we need to teach. Also Elder (Spencer) King came in. It was sweet to see my friend from EFY back in June.
Thursday the same thing happened with our second investigator. We had a lesson prepared, but then taught something completely different. Plus I got a letter from my main home-skillet Elder Carroll, which made my day
Friday was a good day. Great lesson, not much else.
Our TRC on Saturday was pretty sweet too. It was pretty much impossible to understand them though, they speak so fast! I can basically understand everything in our classes, because they talk slow, but once we teach real people, it's really hard. One of the guys we taught actually was my companion's brother's companion. (if that makes any sense)
Sunday was sweet. The Nashville Tribute Band was so cool. They sang 9 songs, and the choir sang with them for 2 of them. The songs they sang (not really sure if all of these are the right titles but....) Send them 2 by 2, A song about the First Vision, Candle Burning Bright, Prophet in a Place called Kirtland, How Much Can One Heart Take, Brother I'll Follow You, and Stronger. Then we sang with them for I Was Born, and John's Song. John's song was super upbeat and there were drums and guitars and it was really weird hearing that stuff again, but It was SO much fun.
Finally they sang the song The Hardest Thing I've Ever Loved to Do. If you have friends or family that are missionaries and you want to cry, that's the song you listen to. Hearing it was the first time I've cried my whole mission (that includes being dropped off at the airport, sorry Mom, I still love you guys though). It's a great song.
I just got a haircut in the middle of writing this, and I think it was the scariest thing I've ever been through. They just shave off your hair with no regard for human life, or whiplash. But it looks good now, so I guess it was worth it :)
I guess that's about it for now. Hopefully this week will bring me a little more things that I can write about. But most likely not because nothing every happens here.
4 weeks down! Only 5 1/2 more weeks to go!
*cries internally*
