"We are now the Lords missionaries, to bring the world his truth."

Wow it has been quite the week so i guess ill just start right in

Tuesday: For the Tuesday Night devotional you will never guess who came to speak! President Nelson of the Quorum of the 12! it was awesome! We got to sing a beautiful missionary medley with I hope they call me on a mission, iI will be valiant, army of Helaman, and Called to Serve. It was awesome! Our choir teacher told us we have been waiting 6000 years to come on our missions. We were chosen and saved for these later days so we could come to the earth and proclaim the gospel before the second coming of our Savior! Its awesome! Anyway President Nelson talked about how missionaries are an epistle of the Lord. When we have the gospel of Christ written and embedded in our hearts others can see the light in our eyes and our will to do good continually. Then he talked about how God wants our safe and successful return, much like my parents do now, and how we have embarked on a journey to become like God and how the world will be changed through our efforts! It was sooo good!

Wednesday: We got to host again today and there were so many new missionaries!! It was getting quiet around here but not anymore! Also we got 10 new sisters in our zone!!!! I'm so happy!!

Thursday: We have been working with an investigator named Em Tien and trying to help him feel the Holy Ghost and thursday we invited him to be baptized and he said YES!! we were so excited!! but then later this week he said his parents dont want him to get baptized so we will have to work on that.

Friday-Saturday: Pretty average MTC days. Lots of learning the gospel and preaching the gospel!

Sunday: I love Sundays! Also me and Chi Le got to be on the panel for "Match the Message" for all the new sister missionaries today! It's basically just a meeting talking about how we are all representatives ofJesus Christ and how we need to act talk and dress our part! It was so fun to be able to work with the MTC relief society and get to be an example for the new missionaries. Also we are pretty much famous now cuz everyone keeps asking us "Hey are you two of the sisters who were on the panel for that one meeting?" and we are all "Yes that is us!" Also I've gotten a lot of people saying i have like a cute accent or something so that rocks! (idk what kind of accent but cool)

Anyway that's about it for this week! I love and miss you all!

Sorry for no email last week! our Zone decided to take a little trip to Brazil so we were a little busy! Jk jk don't worry we just went to the beach and hiked up to a Jesus statue that looks like the one in Brazil. It was sooo awesome! We got to go to Vung Tao Beach and hiked up a mountain- which I haven't hiked up a mountain, let alone seen a mountain in a very long time! It was awesome and so beautiful! and very very spiritual. There were little statues of Bible stories everywhere and inside the Jesus Statue were pictures of His life and a little place to worship. You could also climb to the very top on his shoulders and see everything! It was cool cuz we literally came unto Christ. Kinda fun to think about These past 2 weeks have been crazy! We had an awesome Zone conference last week that gave me a ton of direction as far as how to do missionary work and I feel like since then the work has just been on fire! We also had exchanges with the STLs and found a cute little cafe

At zone conference we all got Vietnamese bibles so that was super exciting! we have been running into a lot of people of Christian faiths and so to be able to use the bible now will be super great! Speaking of Zone conference it was so amazing. We focused on recognizing the Holy Ghost. There are 4 lessons you could say of how the spirit prompts us. One is revelation but not knowing beforehand, so being lead even though you don't know you are being lead. this comes as you are obedient and strive to follow Gods will (think of Nephi getting the brass plates). The Second is revelation through repetition. So when you read something or learn something a million times and then one day something clicks and your understanding deepens. The next is revelation as a conclusion so like a prompting to do something even though you don't know why. And then revelation as time, so knowing what you need to do already but understanding the right time (Like extending an invitation at the right tim

Holy cow it has been quite a week!! and guess what! I have offically been here for one month!! which is crazy!! Anyway I started out the week with an awesome devotional from Brent H. Neilson of the 70. His wife spoke about missions and related it to a 10k she ran on the fourth of July this past summer! Oh my maybe it's cuz I ran once upon a time but it hit me so hard!! man it was good! but she made 4 points. She said: 1) "I knew very little about running but I knew enough to run the race".  As a missionary I know very little about being a missionary but I know enough to come out here and serve the Lord 2)"I learned I wasn't the best in the race but I wasn't the worst." I am not the best missionary out here. 'Ill be honest I thought I would (haha) be but it's been humbling to see I still need to improve a lot! But I am also not the worst. I am trusting in God and doing my best 3)"I wasnt running alone." I am not running alone.
