We do our best to invite the Spirit with us

We do our best to invite the Spirit with us            Roger Chu

 Temple Square!!!! YES!!!! Dream comes true sister! I am so happy for you! Just few days ago I got to go there with all other international missionaries. I saw one Taiwan missionary there. She said there is five more. She seems nice : D
Start or keep reading Preach My Gospel. and scriptures. It  has all you need right there!

I am doing great! The time here is so slow. Things that suppose to happen in a month now all shrink into a week. It is hard to remember what happened in the morning every time when I am writing my journal. The morning feels like last week. I have definitely learned so much here. Like I said the spirit is super strong in MTC. Every time we study we pray that the Spirit will help us and guide us. And the learning is really working well with the Spirit being present. I had a lot of teaching practices this week. At first was really hard. I just didn't know what to say. It gets better as I get more practice. I feel more comfortable teaching now. But there is definitely a big room for improvement.

There are some changes for my companions. Elder Westbrook has been called to be the zone leader, and Elder Lin is the new District Leader. Because of this change, Elder Westbrook  is not  my companion anymore.  Just me and Elder Lin now. During this days the Elders in our district have became really close. We speak the same language, and we all have the same purpose here. I  feel very to be in this district. Unlike a lot of  elders in  other districts, we  are willing to work, to study. We do our best to invite the Spirit with us as we get through every day. And when it's time to have fun, we have fun. 

One more thing about my district is a lot of us like to sing and enjoy music. Today we got nothing in the morning (its a prep. day). So we just sang hymns for an hour and a half/

I see a lot of people here. Friends from high school and BYU. Remember Michaels? I see  lots of them. One of them seems kind of stress and upset every time I saw him. I am thinking about write him a note to see if I can cheer him up .
  
   One thing I found when teaching, investigators always have lots of questions . This is the hardest part. To understand what they need to hear and try to give them the best solution to help them. Scripture is the best way to help them. But every time I just can't find any to give them. To conquer this defeat I bought a little notebook. Every time when reading scripture, if I find some verses that I think may help or can be used when teaching the investigators,  Ill write it down on the notebook and write a summary next to it. I started this few days ago and it has been working well.  

I love you guys. Make sure you guys take care of yourselves. Is mom still excising? Brother I miss you. I will pray for your study and everything else. Dad, please keep working hard. I need your money to preach the gospel. My time is short. I will write letter by hand letter and send it through paper mail.
