Random Monday P-Day

Hey all,

My P-day is Monday today because we're getting smartphones tomorrow. Surprise! 

Also, I have a Facebook now if you want to look me up. I can't really do anything with it though.

This week wasn't super eventful. We spent most of our time trying to set up appointments with new investigators, almost all of which fell through. We did get a few good appointments in. We met with a mother and her daughter from Shanghai the other day who have a lot of potential. I still don't know them very well yet, but they were very welcoming, came to church, and want to meet with us again as soon as possible. We met with another man, named Zhang Ning, who is a pretty well-known Chinese medicine doctor(?). He's also really willing to meet with us and come to church, and he even said we could come over sometime to do some Chinese medicine stuff. I don't really know what that entails, but I guess we'll find out. 

Yang Yuan Lan said she wanted to go contacting with us this week, so we spent about an hour and a half one day on the street with her stopping and talking to people. She was amazingly motivated to stop people and share the gospel with them. She sort of showed the two of us up a little. She hasn't even been a member of the church for 2 weeks and she's already fearlessly sharing the gospel with others. She's crazy.

Elder Furness and I have been getting along really well. He seems like he's adjusted to life in Quebec instead of Ottawa. Everyone in the branch likes him and is impressed by his Chinese. Noobie life has been pretty good for the two of us. We're gonna go party with Cedric (the crazy Vietnamese guy from my first day) today so he can give us an insider tour of the city. Tomorrow we'll be able to finally text people in Chinese. Life is good.

Hope you all have a good week.

Notre Dame de Montreal: It looks like Notre Dame de Paris except not as cool. or old. but still pretty cool

Old Montreal. It looks like Europe, but with more hockey stuff.

We're famous! We made it into the Chinese President Monson Liahona addition.

We:  Hinckley Scout Ranch, a Boy Scout camp at the East Fork of the Bear River in Utah where Elder Hadden worked for many summers as a counselor.  The building in the picture is their new lodge.

没有信心不用想办法: No confidence not to think of a solution.
