Im doing my letter a little different this time. Im sending home a bunch of pictures to show you what my life is like.
We spend alot of time riding this and trying to strike up conversation with people. I love the purple seats.
This picture is so you can see the cool boats behind me. There are alot of little docks like this around
Some of the beautiful area we cover Honestly the water here is quite beautiful.
So many of the building are just breathtaking. They are exactly what you would picture in your head Hong Kong China would look like
I love this little spot. Its beautiful to me.
So we pass this guy alot. His music is amazing. He looks like the most relaxed peaceful person Ive ever seen. Sometimes I wish I had his life.
Yes. Exactly. We spent a long time gut laughing about this burger. Its mine of course. And yes I ate it. And no you cant see that picture. Its private.
This is because i wanted to impress you with how clean everything is here. Its not normally empty but it is always sparkling clean.
My precious friend. She is about my favorite person ever.
Ok so this is my new favorite Jesus picture. This picture speaks to my heart more than any other I have ever seen. I love these precious Chinese children. They are truly gods children.
More beautiful scenes
from our walks and walks and walks. Pioneer children might be jealous of us.
So this might seem comical but I know little points of interest are sometimes interesting. Our tiny little apartment is small and clean and cozy. Isnt this the cheeriest shower youve ever seen?
I included this because we sortof live and die by this map
View from our window
My darling Sister Viazzo and I
This is where we eat
and cook
Mom thanks for teaching me cream of mushroom with anything goes over rice. This is my new favorite over plain rice. We love it!
Another apartment view
On a visit with our friends
Where we sleep. It really is homey despite the small size
living space
Sometimes if there is nowhere to sit you just sit wherever and eat as fast as you can. This is me having a quick snack in my normal chinese stance.
So I will end with this picture of Mr. Chou. He is the reason I am actually here. Not the cool scenery or cool food or fun living conditions. It is for sweet souls like our beloved Mr. Chou. So he is our first real investigator. I cannot tell you what this has done for Sister Ngs and my spirits. He asked us at first if God was an alien. I thought to myself oh no we have a crazy person here. But I looked at him and he was troubled and sincere. He wasnt trying to be dumb. He just was trying to wrap his head around the concept of God and what it could mean to him. As we talk to him, I honestly feel the sweet promptings of the spirit saying these are the reason missionaries come. We treat him good and he eats it up. He also wears the same purple tank top every time I see him which makes me laugh.9 Im pretty sure it says he believes in telekenisis. Someone please google. ) Sometimes at church he tries to escape because church is boring for him, but we are aiming to touch his heart. I know God is real. I dont know if the Jesus picture with the Chinese children effects you the way it effects me but it chokes me up with gratitude to be here whenever I look at it. Ive come a long ways in my heart since I arrived off the plane as a scared Utah girl. I feel bold and confident and ready to help. I just want to help people. I dont want to bother or give unwanted messages. I pray we can find the people our message will help. I think we will. I feel as hopeful and happy as I ever have. Find someone to help family. Make it a great week. I love you.
