Crazy is the New Normal

Leihdeih Hou!

     I hope everyone had a great week last week! There is nothing really exciting going go, just the usual studying and teaching lessons. Our schedules are so crazy and I think we have forgotten what the meaning of time is haha! But seriously, when you go on a mission, your concept of time is so off. Sister Redd and I are the definition of so much to do, so little time. We definitely busy, we it's a good kind of busy. We try our best to keep each other sane :)

     It has finally started to cool down and feel like winter a little. But the cold does not stop the mosquitoes here I'm afraid. And mosquitoes love me. So when I go outside to exercise, everything is covered except for my hands and face, and somehow, the mosquitoes manage to find the only places where skin in showing a eat me alive. If this is what winter is like, I don't want to know what it will be like in the summertime!

     So Sister Redd and I have started teaching AMay's daughter Padmay about the gospel! Super exciting! She is a teenager and only gets to visit her mom on the weekends when she's not in school, so this was the first time we talked with her. She seems to have interest and received our message about the Restoration well. She's still unsure about baptism, but I can see she has a lot of potential :) 

     Sorry there wasn't much to report on this past week, but there are pictures below of all the different residential areas I serve in! I hope everyone has a great week! Talk to you next Monday!
Scripture of the Week: Romans 8:24-25 If we have hope that something will happen, then we need to have the patience associated with it and patiently wait for it to happen. 
Quote of the Week: You won't be of much to others if your own faith is not securely in place (Elder Neil L. Andersen)

Sister Maggie Shiffert

The area I serve in covers a wide variety of places. Yuen Long truly is a special place! We have places that are pretty typical and more lower class...


​And then we have places far from the city where there are houses which is the equivalent of a mansion in the U.S...

And then we have the more suburban area (this is Long Ping which is right next to Yuen Long)...

And then we have the more urban/city environment...


Forgot to add this last week, but here is a view from my apartment!
