MACAU 6
Heavenly Father's love and very personal specific daily designs never ceases to amaze me.
Before I get on that I would like to mention,
JENNY WAS BAPTIZED!!! :D
On Saturday we held a baptismal service because there's a leadership meeting on Sunday after church, and there were 3 people being baptized that day:
Jenny, A-Fai the Cantonese Elders' investigator, and Mok Ye the Mandarin Elders' investigator :) It was such a happy exciting day and lots of people showed up although it was held on Saturday. Afterwards all three bore their testimony, and Jenny shared how grateful and blessed she was that she was found and had the opportunity to learn the Gospel and very respectful sweet humble testimony. Then A-Fai was very nervous about bearing his testimony and didn't know what to say, so Jenny and other members asked him questions to prompt his testimony and it just ended up turning into a testimony meeting basically :) and though I didn't understand very much of Mandarin, when Mok Ye bore his testimony I could still feel the Holy Ghost strongly and knew that he knew this gospel was true.
On Sunday we had 4 people receive their confirmations!! Including our other convert A-Yan who was baptized a week earlier :) :) :)
Both girls are so solid and love the Lord and were excited to finally receive the gift of the Holy Ghost!
And it was so awesome to see them progress since the beginning and watch their faith grow and gain their own testimony.
This past week we also met some awesome new investigators, basically like Jenny where they were willing to just come follow us into the church to hear our lesson and to meet us again, among them are Ga Yih and we were able to see her twice already and she was very purposeful in her agreement to be baptized, she really wants to have the testimony that we and A-Yan (she helped us fellowship :) ) have, and to know the truth and also be baptized, it almost made both of us cry because she was such a miracle find and so golden. Another one, Sylvia, she had to go to work and had just moved from the mainland china few days ago and didn't know her phone number so she said she can meet us after work the same place we met her and follow us to the church. We had lots of experience where even though we receive some-sort-of phone numbers they would "fong" our appointments where they flat out don't show up and ignore the promises, but for some reason we both really believed her, and that night waited for her. But she didn't show, and Sister Wong said we will wait for 10 more minutes and at last as we were about to leave when that 10 minute was almost up, she showed up! She was sorry she was late, and she actually liked our messege and agreed to see us again! So many miracles, but the greatest miracle I have yet shared, and actually I'm out of time, perhaps next week, but really, as Mom shared with me her relief society lesson the past week I am firther convinced of how specific God's designs are, although I had missed that messege across the seas and He has helped me another way, I am still greatful for mom's sharing. The gratest miracle this past week is the miracle within me. God has helped me to overcome another one of my greatest fears of my heart, anyways more next week
