Hello!!

Hello Fam and Friends!! I Hope everyone had a great week!! All is still good here in Fengyuan! This week was great and the work continues to move forward. This week we spent lots of time finding! We are really trying hard to find those souls prepared to hear the message of the restored gospel.

Saturday night we went to visit a less active in the ward. As we were going down this alley I realized that they lived on the next street over, so we turned around and started to head back on the main road when both me and Elder Richter felt we should go back and knock on a couple doors on that street. As we did so, the 3rd door we knocked opened and a big buff dude answers the door and in perfect English says "Whats up guys, I speak English." hahah it caught me so off guard, but he let us in, He had lived in Canada for 12 years. So we shared the message of the restoration with him. It was the first time i had taught this lesson in English since Jean in my first area. It was a very powerful lesson and the spirit was so strong, He said he has always really wanted to hear what our message is but never really has. This definitely was a miracle and tender mercy from the Lord!!

I know i have talked about this talk before but I just love it. "Act in all Diligence" by Henry B. Eyering. I would like to share a quote in it with you!

"This is the Lord’s Church. He called us and trusted us even in the weaknesses He knew we had. He knew the trials we would face. By faithful service and through His Atonement, we can come to want what He wants and be what we must be to bless those we serve for Him. As we serve Him long enough and with diligence, we will be changed. We can become ever more like Him."

The Lord has given each one of us a sacred trust. Even in the weakness he knows we have, he trusts us, he believes in us, and is rooting us on!! And as we act in diligence to better understand him. And everyone, member or not, use his atonement, we can become like him, and prepare for eternal happiness! This church is true and I invite all of you to read the Book of Mormon and pray to God for yourself, to know it is true as well! 100% of the time he will give you an answer!

Love you all!

Elder Henderson
