Crazy week coming up

Hey all! This week has been a good week! I don't have a lot of time, but I'll take a minute to tell you about some of our investigators.

We are working with Yingdi and her family (Yingdi is on date for July 15th), Ambi and her husband Maning (Ambi is on date for July 22) and Wu Huan Qi (Is on date for August 19th) Those are probably the best investigators. I LOVE teaching the families... They are my favorite people <3

Something I would call a miracle happened this week, on Walking Wednesday. 
So two weeks ago, we tracted this apartment in Garapan. No one was super interested, we thought, but gave away a few Lesson 2 Pamphlets (about the Plan of Salvation. We've found it's better to start with that lesson with the Chinese). One guy did tell us we could come back, as long as it was before 4PM. We didn't get to go back until Wednesday. He welcomed us in, and through his broken English, our broken Chinese, and a little Google Translate, he told us the following: He and his family were going back to China that night at 11pm. They had come here to Saipan for the birth of their second daughter, Sapphire, so she could be American. He wants to learn more about Jesus Christ, but even more than that, he wants his daughters to learn. He wants them to learn and grow up following Jesus Christ and one day go to school in America. We gave him a Book of Mormon, our emails, and asked for his info so missionaries in China could contact him. He proceeded to literally draw a map of China. He said he lives an hour south of Beijing. He gave us his families names, his address, his phone number, and his email address. He also wanted a picture of us with his newborn daughter. He said, "I'm going to show her this picture and tell her about you one day." The Spirit was soooo strong!!! It was one of the best experiences on my mission by far. I remembered what Brother Conner said: "Chinese people will come here and you will teach them, then they will go back to China and bring the Gospel to their families and friends". So cool!!!

That's all I really have time for this week. Tomorrow we go to Guam for President's last Zone Conference (He is skyping it to the whole mission, but Saipan is close enough to Guam he is flying all the missionaries in). Then me and Sister Jenkins go back to Guam Saturday-Monday for MLC. Lots of traveling for us this week. 

Love and miss you all! Stay safe, have fun, and always watch for the miracles God blesses you with every day. I promise you they are there.
