大家好！Hey Everyone!
HAPPY EASTER!!! How was everyone's Holiday? I hope it was not as snowy as ours.
Quick Friend Update: Ernest said he wants to be baptized next month! We helped him resolve a concern about the baptism water temperature. Evidently we filled the font too early for Roda’s baptism, so the water went cold for her, and she didn’t want Ernest to get sick after being immersed in cold water. We promised Ernest that God loves him and won’t let him get sick because of being baptized, and he seemed more relieved.
We had three new faces at church yesterday! The branch members were wonderful fellowshippers for new friends. One lady told us she really liked the atmosphere and the enthusiasm of the members.
We also had the longest lesson ever with a member who kept going off in Chinese about something. I think it was successful, though; the guy we taught seemed to feel more that God loved him.
...also April Fools! What you see in the subject line [being called as AP] definitely did not happen, don't worry.
Luke 24 has caught my attention with some cool scriptures regarding Christ’s resurrection. Shortly after Christ’s resurrection, He appeared and talked with two other disciples, on their way to Emmaus, who invited Him to stay for the evening. Only after He abided with them were their eyes opened to understanding that he was Jesus the Christ.
This week I invite you to think of one small thing you can do to let the Savior’s influence abide with you, and act on it. I, myself, am going to put a picture of the Savior somewhere recognizable in my apartment. I promise that as we let the savior “abide with us,” our eyes will be opened, and we will come to know him even better.
Have a great week! Love you all! 爱你们！
