So today is our second to last PDay at the MTC, not that I'm counting. :) It's so crazy. This week has been kind of crazy, learning so much and doing so much. During one of our lessons with Walter I tried to ask him if he wanted to get to know Jesus and accidentally asked him if he wanted to eat Jesus. He got really worried and asked me if I like to eat people. Also we have yet to clarify that we don't actually believe in the trinity. I don't know who is trusting me to teach the gospel in Chinese because so far I'm teaching some weird stuff. Kind of fun though.
Will someone please tell Paul that in all of our Cantonese books, Paul is always the person inviting you over for tea. It makes me laugh every single time. I think he might also be the big fool they are referring to, but maybe dont tell him that.
This week I've also been working on learning phrases and words outside of gospel terms. It's kind of hard though because all of our study materials have only gospel terms. However, I've mastered the phrase "I regret the mistake of ever knowing you" and "what do you want with me" very well. My teachers are very proud of me.
We had a devotional on Sunday that I really liked. The speaker talked about how the Holy Ghost. One of the things he said was that the Holy Ghost believes in anonymous service. He then said that sometimes we don't even know we're being lead by the spirit, or that the spirit is working in us to help other people. We just have to trust that if we're doing our best to have the spirit with us that He will be helping. God wants to help us, He's not trying to put obstacles in our way to keep us from Him. I'm so grateful everyday for a Heavenly Father and Savior who don't leave me or any of their children. I love my family so much, hope you are well! <3
