September 25^th, 2017 There are Geese everywhere.

Hello Everyone,

Monday- We played round the world ping pong. I never knew how intense ping pong could be :) We had a supper appointment with the Cormacks and we join them for FHE and then we helped a member move more things to her new house.

Tuesday- We got to teach Alexandre and Caroline ( we taught them the first day Sister Patac got here and we helped them move into our area) It was a really good lesson you could see on their faces they have a true desire to learn the truth! They are great! Then we had supper at Sister Mentita! I love Philippine food! 

Wednesday-We had district meeting. We had lunch with a member and she took us to Empress of China for lunch and then we helped her move some things around to help her for her move to BC.  And then we had ward correlation meeting!

Thursday-We helped an old man move boxes around with the Elders so he could throw things away. Then we had a lesson with Ru she is a new investigator she is from China and wants to learn how to speak English. Our lesson was mostly through google translate so we typed what we wanted to say and it showed it in Chinese so she could understand it . She is so sweet though!  We had a lesson with Jamie it was a really good lesson the only thing is I think he is too scared of his wife to act on what he is feeling.

Friday- We did weekly planning 

Saturday- I got to attend the first funeral on my mission. We got asked on Thursday night if we could sing with the elders so we sang I am a Child of God and Teach me to walk in the light. And we also prepped food and then we got left to clean up the food and wash the dishes so we were at the church all morning. I am so happy that the members trusted us to get it done and that they can count on us! There was a stake Relief society thing at a different chapel so that is the reason everyone left.  After that we had a lesson with one of our less active members. Then we drove to Ru`s place and taught her how to pray in English.  And she also fed us Chinese food. Then we headed to the R.S. activity to have supper and watch the broadcast. Which was AMAZING! 

Sunday- We went to church. Had ward council then we had a lesson with Fred. Then we had a rescue instruction meeting with all the ward council members in the stake .

I hope you had a great week! 

Love,

Sister Russell
