I Love Chinese People!

Hey, everyone hows it going? Is it cold yet? Are the leaves all changed? They are still changing here slowly but surely. This past week has been crazy but good. On friday we had all mission conference. It was so good, we had elder Grow from the seventy come and he is really great! We talked about goal setting and seting a goal to be baptizing every week! it is this amazing new goal system and I am so excited to start it and get more people in the water! this week was so good because the work is going well here. I love the people that we work with! We just picked up a new investigator this past week and she is so amazing. Her name is Yuxin, she is from China and was a referral from one of our other investigators. When we first met with her she had no religious background. She wasn't even sure what the word God meant. she walked away from that first appointment saying that she didn't think that she could believe in a God that she couldn't see. We just encouraged her to pray and see how she feels when she prays. we met with her again two days latter and it was amazing what the spirit can do. she told us that she felt good when she prayed and that she felt like someone was there. then we met with her last night again and she told us that the night before she went out to a club and was drinking and she said that she didn't feel right and that she thought that drinking was bad for out heath and also staying out all night partying. She told us that she never wanted to go to a club again. the whole lesson she was just a sponge soaking in everything that we were teaching here. and at the end she said the prayer and it was amazing! she said that the past few days that she had felt a new feeling and that she liked that feeling and she wants it to continue. She is really progressing and its really cool to see someone experience the joy of feeling our Heavenly Fathers love for the first time and to really know that He is there and that He loves her. I am so grateful for the experiences that my Heavenly Father lets me see. To see the progression of our investigators is a blessing in my life and I will never forget it! I love it! I hope you are all doing well and I hope you have a good week! I will write again next week! Love, Sister Cox
