hey everybody!
not a ton of time!
life has been
great! this week richard li and mark wang were baptized! it went so well.
pictures to come in the near future. they are both incredible. they were
confirmed that sunday and richard bore his testimony! he shared his conversion
with everybody and about how at first he thought we were "fake monks"
trying to get money from him. but after our first lesson he knew that we were
sincere and that what we shared was good.
he also told
me, a few days before, that he never felt guilty for the things he had done
until he met with us. i didnt expect anything more than that because he wasn't
accountable for the sins he previously committed. I asked him that if all
meeting with us did was make him feel guilty, then why would he want to be
baptized? he told us that his life has improved immensely since he started
living what we taught him. he said that since he comes from china and from a non-religious
background that it would be very hard to convince him that God was real or that
anything we taught him was true, unless he could see it change his life. he
said that even though he was hard to convince and had no religious beliefs
previously that he has felt such a change and a righteous desire that he knows
it must be real. what an incredible experience to be able to teach him.
derek
martindell will be baptized this week. he is incredible too!
gotta go! love
you all! hopefully we can learn something from Richard's testimony! read and
pray about the Book of Mormon!
love you
all!
