Merry Christmas! --- Chúc mọi người giáng sinh vui vẻ!

Hope every one's Christmas is filled with great joy.

I don't have a lot of time to write a long email, but hope everyone has a great holiday!!

This week was filled with many miracles. This week we got 4 new investigators. 2 were referrals from a member and then 2 were from English class. We have been very blessed to have to opportunity to teach these people.

This week we were reminded of the true meaning of Christmas as we got to participate in a Branch nativity. It was a neat experience to hear of the Savior's birth while doing something together as a branch. The savior was born for us to fulfill God's plan.

I hope you enjoy the Christmas holiday and were able to do the 25 days of Christmas! I know that me and my companions have been trying to do it and it's been a blessing.

Merry Christmas!

Love,

Happy Christmas Season!--- Giáng Sinh Vui Vẻ!

Hope every one's week was great! This week went by so fast for me!

This week we did a lot of teaching and eating with people to gain more relationships!

One Monday we had Family Home Evening. We decorated the church and stayed very busy with that! It was soo much fun!

We were able to teach Chị Mai this week. She is doing great! She has so many questions about the church and it's really interesting to be able to write them down and study them more in depth for me! She is really is interested in the Happiness the gospel brings for families, which is perfect!

This week too, we met with Cô Trúc at her work. She told us she doesn't know if she has a lot of faith, which is really sad. It's hard because she doesn't keep all her commitments, so there is really no application in her life.

This week also Chú Mỹ (just like me but male) made us scriptures cases! They are soo cute, but besides that he is a member, but his wife is not a member. She is very strict to Traditions. We were talking and he told me the she is not ready YET. He told me she is being prepared. The Lord prepares everyone. He shares the gospel with her, so one day she will accept the gospel. The Lord really does have a plan for everyone.

Love everyone! Remember Christ this season!

December 10, 2017 Xin Chào Everyone, Hope everyone's week was great. My week was very busy with lessons and meetings, just the usual. One thing that happened last week that no one may care about, but we spent 1.5 million Đông on food last week. That is really expensive compared to my last companion. haha. Many great things happend this week: So usually in the week, we don't ride our bikes often. We are blessed to be in an area where everything is very close, but this week we got the opportunity to take a bike ride to a different District to go visit someone. The bike ride was almost 2 hours but it was totally worth meeting with this sister. She is a sister of one of the Missionaries here serving in our mission. Her name is Chị Quyên. She is really nice and really wants to learn more about the gospel because she has seen the change it has made in her sister's life. We are hopefully going to continue to meet with her after her business trip to Hanoi. Also this we...

January 21, 2018 Hello everyone! This week was really crazy. We had a lot of appointments and we got 2 new investigators! This week we had FHE and they did western dancing. Everyone really liked it and loved learning about the American culture. Even though we could not dance, we really enjoyed talking to our investigators and helping out. This week we got 2 new investigators. They are both Em's, which essentially means they are younger than us. They are really interested and are learning a lot from us. They are people who don't really know anything about God, so we are taking it slow with them. We were worried they wouldn't get along with everyone but they got along with each other. Perfect because they are the same age. Also met with Chi Mai and Chi Quynh, who both have baptismal dates. It's so cool to see them develop and grow in the gospel and to see them have and grow the light of Christ. Chi Quynh said to us that she has seen a really big change in her l...

A Note from Julie: These letters are sent from Hope weekly. I edit them and attach the pictures she sends. This blog is done by me and not Hope so she may not see any comments that you leave for her. I will try to pass things along but no guarantees. If you want to send her a message, please write to her at hope.nelson@myldsmail.net . Thanks everyone! Love to all!!! October 8, 2017 This week we had a ton of rain. It kept flooding the streets so it was fun to play in. haha. This week was kinda slow. We taught a lot of recent convert lessons. It's great to teach those lessons because they know the gospel and it's more like them teaching us.  Haha. This week we taught Ba Oanh again. We taught her about prepping for General Conference and getting ready to listen to the prophet. She also always gives us a ton of food, but last Thursday she gave us a whole meal unexpected... sooo good! Thanks to Michelle and Kami! They sent me a package of all my favorite things I was t...
