love, Elder Burr
WAIT! So it turns out I actually
have more time to write a letter because we went to the church to play
basketball and the family history library was open so I will just finish my
letter!
So we just barely came back from our
lesson with Leo! It was so awesome, so spiritual. In his closing prayer he
said, " lord, please give me strength and faith to endure to the end, to
become a better person, and to become more perfect, like you." This is the
atonement. I am so privileged to teach Chinese people, because most the time,
they never know who their Heavenly Father is! And when they learn the gospel
lessons, they just have so much more peace in their life, so much more
understanding in all things. So, Leo will be baptized the 27th, confirmed the
4th, and then leave for Guang Zhou on the 9th. It’s like an hour away from Hong
Kong, so I hope we can contact some members their and help him out.
BUT we are a little worried about
his sister, Regina. So, everything was going good with the lessons and the baptismal
date, but then, during relief society like 2 weeks ago, someone made a comment
that they thought was a joke, but it ended up hurting her feelings really bad. And
now she is questioning how good the church really is....but Leo was like "these
are girl problems, I still now the church is true!"
But super cool miracle, so we didn’t
even know that this happened, and like two days after it happened, we ended up
going over to her house with 2 sisters that came last minute, like literally
last minute, they were driving back from China Town and they just came by. And
it just happened to be the only two sisters that speak Cantonese, which is Regina’s
first language. Super sweet!!
k have to go for real, love you all,
bye!! Turns out this place closes at 4:30, can’t win them all!
