Hello from district 1. I am officially back in the center of the city. It's been awhile. This week started pretty chill cuz my comp was still sick from dengue. So it gave me a chance to go through the area book and call 5 million people on our phone. Other than that though we have done alot alot of contacting. We have this awesome family named Huong and Qui and Linh and Lanh though, who is just so picturesque. We come in we share a message while they are gathered around the table and they all are excited and willing to pray. Em Linh shared an experience with prayer where her dad said if she ran around the park ten times he would get her a toy, but after 2 times she was tired. So she stopped for a second and said a quick prayer and was able to finish and get a toy! I love the faith of little kids! and then after our lesson as we head out the door they give us little chocolate mochies! It's awesome! Also we had a cool experience. We got super lost trying to find a potential i...

First things first though, my comp got dengue so thats exciting. We got caught up on records though so that's good. also called like 400 people, so awesome Also We accidentally ate frog cuz I can't read Vietnamese still I guess, and what I thought said seafood actually said frog. It wasn't too bad just a little weird- Em Vy got baptised!!!!! so excited for her. She is the most faithful little girl I have ever met. She reads the Book of Mormon daily and is now reading it with her dad and even taught him to pray. She was a little nervous but it was so sweet. Also we visited Anh Khai this past week and it was cool cuz he was very very different and not so distracting. He kept talking about prayer and faith which was awesome but not normal. I was excited though! but the next day he texts us and is all "Hey I cant come to church but I'm going to book an uber for my wife!" So awesome!! then it gets better! His wife tells us a story about how Anh Khai prayed eve...

Hellooo! Wow don't have tons of time but I have a pretty cool story for this week! So I have been working a lot on faith and charity and how I can increase both. So i read Moroni 7 and wow it was so good! basically it says to have faith we need meekness and hope in the atonement. To have that hope we need meekness and charity. To have charity we need to pray for it with all the energy of heart and be a true follower of christ. As we become like Him we will be able to recognize Him and others who have the light of Christ in them! so super awesome! Anyway we applied that in exchanges this week! I went into one of the areas for a couple days and what they wanted is a lot of new people to teach. So we prayed with faith and then went to work! it was so fun to see! we had one miracle where we had a lot of new appointments set up and they all said they were on their way and no one was showing up, and we lost the address and phone number of a really awesome lady who loves prayer.
