Hey everyone!
I had a blast this last week, there's also Avril Lavigne playing right next to me, as well as My Chemical Romance, so I will get right to the meat. Not really meat though, you'll understand because....
Food:
Pig Ear: Not really meat. Mostly cartilage and skin. My companion got some the otherday and made me eat them with him, claiming that it would boost our unity. They aren't gross. They just aren't good. Not really any taste or nutrition. It's like eating cardboard. Fatty cardboard. 1.5 auricular appetizers out of 5.
蚵仔煎: This is a little egg and oyster and other stuff omlet. That's basically what it is. It's super good. I wouldn't mind eating them a lot. I don't know that I can though because they are a little expensive. 4 oyster omlets out of 5.
I hope that there will soon be even more food review soon, my companion eats like crazy, so I think that there are great hopes for it.
Game Review:
Settlers of Catan: My zone leader, Elder Chen is way into games. Like as much or more than me, which is shocking to me. He brought settlers to the Church the other day and we played. It was a blast especially with him going "oh, oh, oh!" Everytime that something even remotely big happened.
This week we had a bit of a rough start. Even though we were working hard as ever, we weren't seeing much success. I had a sneaking suspicion that the Lord was going to test our patience and wait until the end of the week to let us see a lot of people start progressing and wait to let us see new investigators. It was exactly like that. It was really cool though. I wanted to share how we revitalized one of the formers that was in the area. We went over to Sister Wei's house and brought a really great member who knew her already. We shared a really powerful message about the BOM and I was praying very hard for what to say because I had never met her. We shared some scriptures and the spirit just led. We were able to help her a lot and she told us that she was ready to "set out" again and try and again to learn and progress. It was a huge miracle. We got to meet with her again and this time she was willing to set a baptismal date with us. It was so great! I think that the ward is finally starting to trust missionaries again because of our hard work these last two weeks. They were all excited about Wei Jm, they were all very sad when she stopped meeting. I am so excited about the miracles that we are seeing.
We also saw a cool miracle this Friday. We had had a day where there was not really happening even though we were trying hard. Seriously, I didn't have a single lesson planned for the whole day. However, at the very end of the day, I had a feeling to go to this one part of the street that we were planning on tracting and knock. Sure enough, the second door opened up to a Brother Huang who was willing to talk to us even though he is Christian of another church. He feels like he is very weak and wants to be better. I shared 2 Ne 4 and he really got it. He allowed us to come back and meet again. Yesterday we met his wife and they are both amazing. I am being so blessed!
I love you all and love this work,
Elder Siebert
