The highlight of my week was getting to meet with my favorite new person we're teaching, brother Chen. He's like 50 and doesn't speak a word of English, and he's very interesting to say the least. Fun fact: like 3 weeks ago he called us out of the blue and wanted to go to church. We had never met him before or anything, so that was so cool. He invited us over for dinner last Friday, and it was super interesting. He fed us trail mix, a tomato, and then some kind of soup which was pretty weird. He also loves to tell us these really dramatic stories from the bible, in literally the most dramatic voice ever haha. He constantly roasts my Chinese though, because I'm currently at the level where I can have everyday conversations, but when someone starts telling me the story of Moses I get totally lost. And that's what this was like though. Elder Hohneke explained what he was saying and it was pretty funny to say the least. So naturally after he told his stories we asked if we could tell the story of Joseph Smith, and we did it in really dramatic voices too hahaha. It was the funniest experience ever. Hoping we can put brother Chen on baptismal date soon, because he's super interested in the gospel. Not much going besides that, we'll see next week if I get transferred or not!
加油!
