Dear family and friends,

This past week was good! 

M
Prep-day and we went to the museum with most of the zone's missionaries! It was awesome and we looked at everything. Pics later.
Tu
Skills and Interviews with president. It was awesome to talk to him. He loves us. He gave me tips that I will probably have a change in assignment soon. We taught a guy named Ray and read the BoM with him.
W
Taught a girl named Karen. She is a friend of Aldus Wong(currently serving in HK). That same night we went to the Wong's for dinner.
Th
Weekly Planing! Then we taught a guy named Henry and at the end he didn't really want to open up to Mormonism(the Truth)... Dropped!
F
Exchanges with a good friend and leader Elder Whitney. He is going home in a week! We taught Amy who I found more than a year ago and she wants to learn again. Taught Joyce at a members house. 
Sa
Planted trees in the morning, my arms were kinda allergic to the plants. They're OK now. Had all you can eat sushi for lunch. Taught Jenny who has a strong desire to strengthen her testimony in God. She promised to feed us Monday night.
Su
Stake Conference Broadcast of the North America NE area with Elder Hales and Elder Andersen. Got to see many old member friends. Visited an old investigator Mandy who hasn't changed a bit. Invited her to come to church. Scheduled an appointment with a family supposedly with 6 children. Awesome!

That's my week!

Dear family and friends,

This week has been really good! We are working together in unity. We have been able to see success in the area. 

I don't really have any interesting stories this week but last week I forgot to tell you one. We were on exchanges and my temporary comp Elder Gunnell and I scheduled an appointment with a York university student named Brian. He is a less-active protestant and I was excited to teach him. We met at the library and it took us a while of walking around to find a spot. Anyway, we sat down and did the Preach My Gospel style getting to know you and ask what he wanted to learn from us. We did that and we wre about a couple seconds away from saying the opening prayer and we heard a voice, rudely, asking us if we were students. We said "no but we are with this guy and he is a student". He said "Oh, so you are lying?" He walked out saying he was gonna find security. Brian followed, we think he was too scared to get in trouble with anything. We followed and just explained the situation. At the end it turned out to be OK but we think the guy was just an offended janitor of the library that doesn't like religion. Brian left. That's my testimony that Satan knows what we're doing and tries to stop us. Amen.

We are going to the Museum today! I am excited and I am sure that I will bring you pictures this time. I probably have more stories to tell you. We'll see if I remember.

Love,
Elder Lee

Dear family and friends,

This week has been good. We went downtown last week and we visited China town. We brought some cheap stuff there and it was pretty fun.

The work is going alright. Things are slowly unfolding. We only have one investigator progressing currently so we are expecting more as we work harder. 

For today's preparation day we went to Scarborough to visit with the rest of the district members. We played some sports and then ate all you can eat sushi. We ate quite a bit.

What's going on with you guys?

Dear family and friends,

How are you guys?

I enjoyed this week. I especially enjoyed conference and helping our investigators watch it as well. 

I particularly liked Elder Holland's talk about grace. It really helped me to recognize the part I am playing in the eternal quest of others. 

We are going downtown later today so I'm gonna have to make this email short. 

Love,
Elder Lee
