Hello everyone!

This week was a great week. Sorry we have not had much time to write recently.

First of all, Bella got baptized! 

I found Bella and her mom and sister street contacting at Box Hill (where all the Chinese shops are at). That day we were out pretty late, usually we would be back home at that time. So finding them was kind of like a miracle. The mom got baptized in China, but she really likes our church, and was very supportive of Bella being baptized. I think the mom will be baptized into our church someday, but now she is holding off because she likes the priest she had in China a lot. When we have classes at church, the mom often answers other people's questions, and one time she even bore testimony of the Word of Wisdom to another member. So the mom is awesome. Bella was awesome too. She is really smart for her age, and remembered almost everything we taught her. It was a little hard for the two kids because we only have English primary, but they are making friends who speak Chinese and can help them understand what is going on. 

Today we will go bowling for Zone P-day. And this Saturday, Olivia is being baptized! I am so glad that God let me witness two baptisms during the last two weeks of my mission!

I am really excited to see my family and friends in a week and a half. Thanks for your support and prayers.
