Hump Day in the MTC!

Dear Mama,

I am happy that I am over half way!!! I am so excited! I can't wait to get to New York!!!!  The MTC still doesn't feel like home to me, but that's ok, I am getting use to this. Today I said, "I think I'm gonna pack today for New York." I almost started packing and the girls had to convince me not to pack haha. It was funny! So guess what? I lost my grayish blackish pencil skirt.... I am really sad, that was my favorite. But that's ok, I will buy New York's hottest style of missionary clothes in the winter and I will feel like an awesome Mormon girl model!

 

Nap Time!  Sister Hughes and I are always soooo tired.

This week has been a roller coaster. Wanna know why..... I slept a lot.  Most of the girls in our zone got sick and missed classes. I got sick starting Tuesday with a really bad headache which led to dizziness and lightheadedness. On Tuesday I took a 1 hour nap after dinner before the devotional. On Wednesday class doesn't starts till 9 so I slept in till 8:30. On Thursday class doesn't starts till 10:20 so I slept in till 10. I felt so much better on Friday and then Sister Strong got so sick that she couldn't focus in class and couldn't eat at all so I had to convince her to go back to the residence and sleep. She went to sleep and I decided to catch up on my studies and while I was studying I fell asleep and woke up with my face on my scriptures. I slept for a full two hours while Sister Strong slept for a full 3 hours. She is now better.

Last Week Sister Hughes was very very sick.  We sometimes do companion exchanges where I stay and take care of Sister Hughes while her companion Sister Brown and Sister Strong can do things they need to do.  One thing I was grateful for was that Sister Hughes needed to get medicine from the doctor at a clinic so we walked down by BYU to a clinic. I felt free. It was amazing to see cars, and buildings, and actual people ;). Sister Hughes has been sick for a week and feared that she might be sent home and she didn't want to go home so I decided to fast for Sister Hughes last Tuesday and she is now fully healed. Fasting is a miracle!

  

A sister I hosted wanted a picture with me.  That was so sweet.

I was able to host again! How awesome is that??? The girls from last week would always come over and talk to me and I would go talk to them. Whew guess I wasn't a bad host. So this past week hosting, I hosted 7 girls and it was easier. I actually knew where I was going and what I was doing. A man told me that I needed to leave the MTC to bring a girl into the MTC because she had a big family. So once again, I left the MTC.  It  felt great haha. It was heartbreaking to see her say goodbye to her family. So I jumped in to do my missionary duty and said, "What an amazing opportunity it is to serve the gospel and you are officially a missionary" and everyone screamed joyfully for their daughter serving. I loved their excitement. The picture I sent of a tall girl and me in front of the temple, that's her :) I then was able to host my friend from college, Maddy Hayward! What the heck. We talked the whole time and it was hard to call her by her last name. It was awesome. I felt better this time about hosting hehe!

Here is an explanation of our District and where they are going. Elder Taylor is going to Taiwan, Elder Gibbson is going to Scotland, Elder Harris and Elder Curtis are going to England, and Elder Pearce, Elder Geilman, and Elder Lloyd are going to Singapore. It's cool that we are all so different.

Our Zone before....

...and our Zone now!

So we have 22 new missionaries that entered our zone and 8 of them are sisters! How awesome is that!!

Stephan B. Allen spoke to us last night. He said what I needed to hear. He said that the Mission is going to be really hard. Satan will make sure you are feeling discouraged and that God has forgotten you and that's why people are leaving the church or going home from their mission. It is so easy to listen to Satan. But God has never ever ever forsaken us! He loves us too much and he wants us to go back to him. He created a plan for us and it is our choice to accept it or not and we chose to accept it. He gave us trials because he knew we could handle it, he did not send us to fail and be filled with sorrow. He sends us here to learn and grow in our mortal body and receive that plan of happiness.

I have a lot of testimony about Priesthood Power. I know I talk a lot about that. It's because I lived some parts of my life without the priesthood in our home and it was scary. I had a very difficult time and decided to ask for a blessing. President Teng gave me the blessing and it was really powerful and all my burdens were lifted and I was able to move forward with strong faith. If you're struggling, priesthood blessings can help. I didn't think I needed one till Sister Price told me that I should get one and it helped me soooo much. It's was so powerful that I cried. 

My Chinese has been improving, my tones and pronunciation too. I know that The Lord is helping me a lot. I know that I'm going to do great in the mission field. I can feel it. It'll be hard but amazing.

I learned how to do a handstand.  I have been increasing the muscles in my head with all the Chinese I am learning.

Work out time with Sister Hughes

 I learned a lot about faith in my personal studies. I learned when you plant a seed in your heart you have to nurture it. If you have a  negative attitude and bad thoughts and feelings, you cannot expect the seed to grow in your heart. But if you're filled with love and gratitude and watering that seed in your heart, you will come closer to Christ and He will fill us with Charity and happiness. When the seed grows and the roots spread, you will be firm in the gospel and it will be harder to go on the wrong path. It'll be easier to make the right choice and easier to love.

Have you ever heard of a plank prayer?  One of the girls in my residence prays this way...hahaha!

 I have been thinking a lot about miracles with our families and ward. I love how kind our ward was to the man who walked into sacrament meeting and prayed kneeling on the floor in front of the pulpit. I think about that a lot. What a good Samaritan Matt is. One of my favorite stories to hear. I am happy for Morgan Winder's baby. I am glad she's ok. The sweet family is being blessed. We have received so many miracles. They may seem small to us but really they mean something big!

 

These Elders always had trouble  staying together, so they tied themselves to each other!

I can't wait to hear where Jacob is going..... He can't leave me hanging!!! I am excited for him. Tell everyone I said hi. Things are tough here but not too tough for me because I have The Lord with me. I am glad Andrea Stackhouse's wedding reception was beautiful and awesome.I am so excited to received the box.

Tell all the girls in YW that I love them very much! I think about them everyday! Dream Big! You are a great leader and teacher and the girls love you so much.

 

        ASL Missionaries

      I love them so much!

Thank you for sending me that bad news. One of the Elders in our district received a newspaper in his package because it was wrapped around fragile stuff and we were so excited to read the news.... mostly the sports section haha because that is all he had. Thank you for sending me the other missionaries' email. I love it! It helps a ton!

I also sent you a handwritten letter too! You should be able to get it soon!

Love you Mama!

 The Infamous Map

Ni Hao Mama,

Ni Hao Ma??? Jin Tian Hen Hao. 

 

I love Monday too. Today is a day where I can go to the temple and talk with my family and friends. It's the best day ever next to Sundays. Tell everyone not to worry about me writing them back. I am happy to write them back, I love everyone and want them to know that I truly care about them. My first priority is to write  the amazing YOU, my sweet dear mama and then I write all the people after you. 

 

Your letter totally helped me a lot. It was direct but helpful and made me realize what I need to work on. When I wrote that letter and sent it, all my frustrations went away. 

 

Ever since Tuesday my companion and I have been tight. We started companion prayers every night and hug each other and say good things to each other. We never take anything seriously with each other anymore. We decided that it was time that we work together and find that unity. She has been amazing and I am proud of her.  Everyday, I pray for her to improve on the language and not be easily discouraged.

 

We learned a lot about the Second Coming this past week because we wanted to teach our investigators about the life of Jesus Christ. Sister Strong and I watched a video about Christ's death and how he died  for us. Sister Strong and I cried together every time there was a Second Coming related topic. I cried because Jesus Christ does really love us and cares about us more than himself, and how he is able to heal my ears someday. Sister Strong cried because I will be able to hear again. We built a stronger relationship in that.

 

Hosting  Day!

On Wednesday (Love the Missionary Mama website), I was able to host 6 amazing girls that bore with me. Unfortunately I wasn't the best host. We had a meeting before we were able to host and the instructor explained that we will have to be outside at the curb and wait for the girls to come in. So I heard all the instruction about starting outside and bringing the girls into the MTC. He specifically chose 7 of us girls to help with something. I missed what the instructor said. He told 7 girls in front of us in a big room to turn around and said that we were partners. I didn't think they were the new missionaries. I was expecting that they would come out of the cars or buses. So I told the girl that I didn't know what to do before realizing that she was the new missionary. "Oops," I said.  And then I said, "I know the way around, follow me." So I took her to her room and class. 2nd girl got dropped off. I dropped her suitcase so many times.... 3 suitcases is a lot for a small person to carry around. When she got her stuff, a senior lady told me to take 2 extra new sisters with me. So that equaled  a lot of suitcases. So I thought 2 girls were in the same building as me, and 1 girl in a different building but I didn't know where. So we started at the bookstore so they could get their books for class and walked all the way across to the other side of the campus. We went up hill, down hill, down the ramp to the 17-M building. Turns out 1 of the girls lives in my residence and the other two live in a different one. I gave one girl to another host to help her and lead two girls to building 3-M. I didn't know where 3-M was. Turns out it was right by the Bookstore where we started. Ugh. We carried the suitcases all the way back, up the ramp, up the hill, down the hill. We arrived in their building. Turns out they don't have an elevator so we carried the suitcases up 4 floors. My arm was so sore and tired and I brought the girls to class. I can picture those girls writing to their parents, "So our host was so crazy and she made us work out on our first day, and she didn't know what to do." Haha, they said they loved me ;) 

 

(This is a picture another Missionary Momma posted on her facebook of her daughter leaving.  Look who is on the right side!  I unknowingly got a sneak peek of my China doll!  This is what Sister Moore  is referring to in this next sentence.)

So my 5th girl, the one you saw in the picture of missionary mamas, her and her family hugging each other was so heartbreaking. I remember those moments with you. She just cried. I talked to her and she started smiling and enjoying her time. The senior lady once again added another girl with me. It was crazy. They both live at the same residence as me.  We found out  that the elevator in our building was broken so we carried the suitcases up 3 floors. Turns out that they were roommates. I kept talking about how exciting it is and that they will find out who their new companion is. I said, "Take a deep breath, this is the last time to be alone." They both did and were excited to find out who their companion was..... We arrived at class and guess who's companion with who? The girls I hosted at the same time were companions with each other. "Very smooth Sister Moore very smooth." Great advice to them when I didn't know they were going to be companions. I was full of sweat and  one of my cochlear implants stopped working and I couldn't hear in class very well for an hour. That was frustrating. But one good side of not having one cochlear implant is..... my teacher didn't pick on me in class. 

 

On Saturday at 5:45 am, Sister Strong wanted to go to an exercise class so I thought that I would run while she was doing the class. It's in the same building. I ran two miles straight and it felt so good. When I finished class, I went to the room were Sister Strong had her class, and there was a girl waving at me. I turned around to see if someone else was waving back at her, turns out it was just me. So I waved back at her awkwardly. She kept waving and I started to realize who that girl was, it was Kylee Simpkins. I have not seen that girl for a very long time. Man, she is sooooo tiny and tall. I apologized to her about not recognizing her. I wasn't expecting her for another few weeks. It was so good to see her.

 

Later in the day, I was so frustrated with the language. "How am I going to do this language? How am I going to hear the tones. I can't do this." I told Sister Strong that I needed to go to the restroom. Luckily it was a one stall kind of bathroom. I kind of broke down and prayed to my Father in Heaven in my heart. I felt God's love. The feeling told me to keep reading Alma 37. When I went to Alma 37, the first verse I saw was 36, and then I read 37. That was the answer to my prayer and it was powerful.

 

Later we did TRC, where we teach members about specific things. Our first time was two weeks ago on Saturday. We taught two different guys. The hard thing was they spoke more yin wen (English) then Zhong wen (Chinese) which tempted us to speak Yin wen. We got in trouble for speaking Yin Wen. This past Saturday, we spoke 100% Zhong Wen. We were happy but were told we needed to work on pronunciation. One of the guys we taught two weeks ago, and we taught him again this past Saturday, received his mission call. He is going to Canada. So excited for him.

 

Yesterday..... I looooooove Sunday, so refreshing. We had Cheryl A. Esplin (2nd Counselor in the Primary General Presidency)  come speak to us in Relief Society.  She reminded us that we are called to represent the Savior because we know Him and we know His plan. The Lord expects our Labor, our Testimony, and our Devotion. We are the last Dispensation and We have a lot of work to do. She then showed us the video of the Savior's 2nd Coming.... I bawled.... Weishenme? (Why) I wasn't crying because I was sad. I was crying because I was filled with joy! Cheryl Esplin asked a question and wanted some of the sister missionaries to answer...Sister Hughes sat next to me and decided to volunteer. So the camera was zoomed in on her on the big screen and here I am right next to her bawling my eyes out. After Relief Society Sister Price saw me crying. That girl is my rock. She knew what I was crying about. She said, "The Lord doesn't have to heal your ears, We both know you're already awesome and you're going to change many people's lives. When you bring others to come unto Christ in New York and other places, they are going to thank you in Heaven and say, "Because of you, I am saved." I was filled with joy. I am really gonna miss that girl. She leaves in 2 weeks. We call each other "The Rock."

 

This morning, I went and did sealings for my first time. I was filled with love and the spirit. What an amazing opportunity it is to help people be sealed to their family. It's an amazing work. The sealer thanked me for my big smile. The people in the room hugged me and asked if I could bear my testimony in Chinese. I did and it was awesome.

 

Everyone here at the MTC keeps saying that I am happy and that every time they see me, I am constantly smiling. It's a TRUE smile. Mom, I am so happy. I am happy through the hard times too. I don't let that tear me down. This place is full of the spirit and I am so so so grateful for the gospel. Let your smile shine forth unto all nations and you'll be blessed.

 

To answer your question, the Dietary room is a little room in the cafeteria. So if your have gluten problems, or lactose or any allergy you go there. So I signed some paper work and I get food there. I feel sooo much better. I haven't been sick lately.

 

Can you send me Lori's address? She wrote me and I would like to write her back. You have amazing siblings.

 

I love you sooooo much mom, You're my best friend. I wear the ring every single day! Your letter is the best part of my week. It's not a distraction. It's uplifting and inspiring.

 

Love you mom,

Wo Ai Ni

My District!

Ni Hao Mama,

Ni Hao Ma???? I am so happy today is P-day! It has been a loooonnng crazy week but it has treated me good too. I don't get to take naps on Sunday, but I can on Monday if I get everything done for the week. I am sooooo tired but I am very happy and I always remind myself why I am here as a missionary. Again I say, I am tired but happy.

 

We had a speaker who is from St. George come on Tuesday, Brother Bruce Hafen, who is the temple president for the St.George temple. He talked a lot about the Temple Garment and how powerful they are. I wept a little because the temple garment is what helped me become a better person and helped me move on from some trials in my life. It's amazing how simple little things can mean something really big. He went on talking about why we have a missionary tag, so that no opposite sex's affection can get into your heart, it would just bounce off your mission tag. Bonus thing about mission tag, no heart can jump out of our chest. It would just stay there inside your chest. Haha that made me laugh so hard. There is an Elder from the ASL zone who is so cute and so nice and always teases me.  He has a deaf 10 year old brother. His brother has a Cochlear Implant and broke it 7 times in his life (In the inside of his head) which means he got his 7th surgery yesterday for a new cochlear implant. It's crazy.  We just bonded great quickly and we are great friends. He is leaving next Tuesday so I am gonna miss him a lot. So when I am with him, I make sure my mission tag is protecting my heart Lol.

 

His wife Sister Hafen talked about how whether we are a missionary or not, whether we are struggling or not, D&C 6:36 said: Look unto me in every thought; doubt not, fear not. The Lord is there with open arms and He loves all of us even when it doesn't seem like that.

 

Yesterday we watched The Testament. I remember watching that sooo many times but the movie was different because of the strong spirit I have felt. Watching Jesus helping so many people and healing others and loving others no matter how many tribulations He went through. I couldn't watch how the people tortured him and crucified him. I literally cried. I was filled with sorrow because of why he suffered for all of us. I was filled with joy because of the way He redeemed us if we follow the right path. Then I cried again at the second coming because He is going to come again and He is going to heal my ears and I will be able to hear. The thought of that just gave me chills. There is no way I can deny that there is a God. The feelings I've received, the miracles around me, the love I feel from God. It's amazing. He is going to come very soon.

 

So guess what?!? I memorized Joseph Smith's First vision and My Missionary Purpose in Chinese YAY! I realized that I sort of need to learn it in English too...... Haha. We have two investigators, Han Ge Hui and Li Zhi Hao. Han Ge Hui is open to the gospel. First time we met him, he was happy and he listenrf to us and we struggled with our Chinese so much. The 2nd time we visited him, we studied super hard in our lesson. We taught him about the Prophets and why we have them. We went in talking about Joseph Smith and I just said Joseph Smith's First vision in Chinese. I felt the spirit and I know that Han Ge Hui felt it too. I went on bearing my testimony about the prophet and the Book of Mormon, I almost cried because the Spirit was guiding me and it did pierce me in my heart. Li Zhi Hao is a really tough investigator, I don't know what to do. He has family and believes in being successful and says that he is very happy. He said that he doesn't need God. He has no respect for God. He can't see Him so he doesn't believe in God. It is so frustrating. We taught him about Faith, we taught him that we can know the truth through prayer and reading the Book of Mormon. We gave him a good lesson on Faith and Prayer. We taught him about the Book of Mormon and gave him our testimony. He refuses, refuses, and refuses, then finally he accepted the Book of Mormon to read it. Tomorrow will be our 3rd lesson with him. Hopefully he read it and felt the spirit. If not, we will keep showing our love to him. I realized that there is going to be a lot of tough people in New York who are going to accept the gospel and who aren't. I know that I need to rely on the Lord and the Holy Ghost to help me to know what our investigator needs. It's amazing how there are so many different people in the world and they all have different needs. They are far from the truth because they know not where to find it. 

 

Yesterday Sister Elizabeth D. Rose came for Relief Society and spoke. She talked about how life is not easy but to always remember the phrase Thomas S. Monson said: "It is better to look up." She went on talking about Mary F. Smith and what an amazing example she is. She kept her faith strong through many trials and the death of her husband. She continued to help and serve others and never thought about herself. I want to become like Mary F. Smith and become firm in the faith like her. I want to become Christlike. I can feel God's love so strong right now! 

 

Sister Hughes, Me and Sister Price

 

Sister Price and I have been very close with each other.  She lived at the 2nd apartment I lived in and we talked little.  Now we are really tight with each other.  She has 3.5 weeks left.  I am really going to miss her.  She keeps me sane.  She knows sign and I love her!

 

Elder Taylor brought us a class pet.  It is a snail and his name is Gary.

Isn't he lovely?

 I love love love the box you sent me. COOKIE DOUGH!!!! I was in heaven! Thank you soooo much. So about the money and not sent cards. I can be crazy. Don't worry, when I get back, I'll be more careful and mature ;). I love the bag, it's perfect for me so far.

 

Sister McKayla Johnstone from elementary school.

 I haven't given the Bishop the scripture yet. One of my favorites is Psalms 27:7.

 

Love,

Mo Jie Mei.

 Dear Mom,

First I want to thank everyone for their prayers and testimonies. I am so so so touched. I am amazed at the love and support I have received from others.  Please let people know we have such a small amount of time on the computer at the MTC so I will try to write everyone who has written me a personal letter.  Their prayers are helping me soooo much, my Chinese is improving, my memorization too, the tones are a bit of a struggle but I am still doing my best.

My Roomies!

Remember Yang Ju? We taught him 6 lessons in one week basically. On our last lesson with Yang Ju, I became sooooo sick that I couldn't speak the whole time leaving Sister Strong on her own to teach the lesson. I felt so bad for her and Yang Ju. Each lesson we have with him, we improve on our Chinese and we're able to answer questions he has. I can probably understand him about 60% now. Sometimes it's hard because I understand him a lot and know the answer to his question and just not in Chinese so I study every single day with my Chinese. So after our 6th lesson, we had a break and after the break we came back to class and guess who is our teacher??? Yang Ju. His real name is Brother Lew. Guess who's going to be our investigator??? Our regular teacher. It was so hard for me to understand Brother Lew at first but now my brain is adjusting to his voice, and his teaching. I feel your prayers, and I know that it's helping me so much!

How are Ron and Traci? Are they doing good? I would love to hear from them one day, either email when their service is back up or an old fashioned letter. How is the What's Up Dragon company doing? How is Justin? I would love to write him.  I hope you'll have fun with Bonita! I am looking forward to your Wave from the freeway!  Haha.

My view each morning when I wake up

 Missionary Work is soooo amazing. We all have sacrifices with our time to the Lord. I am amazed with how many Elders and Sisters there are and how their testimonies increase each day. I love what your wrote about Elder Lee and his comment, I needed to read that.

I got the top bunk.

I was struggling long and hard and I just couldn't bear it one day. Sister Griffin is a training sister leader; she pulled me out of class on Friday. Sister Griffin is one of the most amazing people that anyone could ever meet. She has the sweetest smile, Christlike tender eyes, and she embraces everyone with her love. Sister Griffin asked how I was doing. I just told her that I really struggled at the MTC with the language and I wanted to feel closer with my companion. She said, "How would you like a priesthood blessing?" I wasn't sure at first, but the spirit told me that I needed it so I said, "Yes."  The Zone leaders blessed me and it was very powerful. Ever since the blessing, things got so much easier and the burden was lifted. My frustration, disappointment, and negativity went away. It got easier to smile, chat with others, and love others. I now have increased my love for my companion and the MTC. Priesthood blessings are so powerful and I am grateful we have amazing family members who are worthy to hold the Priesthood.  It is one of the most wonderful gifts that men can receive or will receive. Sister Strong and I had a companion inventory. That is when two companions talk about their weaknesses and strengths with each other. We told each other our trials and we both cried together. We came to find our love for each other and we haven't had a struggle since. I am glad she was able to trust me and tell me the struggles she faced in her life in the past and that I was able to share mine with her.

There is another sister missionary I wanted to have a better friendship with so every single day I prayed for her. I got the feeling that I needed to write her a letter of things that I liked about her. So I made a positive list about her and gave her the letter. She read it and gave me a cookie with a smiley face on it and said, "We are now friends."  I went to an amazing devotional yesterday.  Sister Peggy Worthen said, "No matter how others treat you, always be happy, friendly, and polite to them." So that is what I have been trying to do because I know it will help me on my mission.

I went to the Provo Temple yesterday and went for a Temple walk. It's soooo amazing. As I was sitting there at the temple, I saw that the Temple has mirrors all around the building. You can see yourself in the mirror, you can see others in the mirror, you can see the worth of souls through the mirror. Everything was green, the mountains were gorgous through the mirrior and it reminded me of God's creations and how he created the world for us. Then it led to the reflection of me..... How do I want the world to see me? There are so many things that I need to work on. I want to become one of Heavenly Father's amazing warriors and be an example so that others can see that Light of Christ.

I love seeing old friends!

I had an amazing opportunity to attend a devotional on Tuesday night with John H. Groberg and his wife.  It was so amazing and so powerful. He said to Bear Your Testimony Frequently! We can bear our testimony through what we say, do, sing, pray, and write, and by who we are. Be grateful that you have that light within you, that gospel in our lives. He said that we should rejoice, "Hurrah for Israel, Hurrah for the Gospel, Hurrah for the mission, Hurrah for opportunites, Hurrah for the future, Hurrah for forgiving, Hurrah, Hurrah, Hurrah."  Thomas S. Monson said, "Sometimes we will be tempted to think," Will my influence make any difference? I testify that it will." I do agree with that statement.

 I want to give my testimony about the Book of Mormon, I testify that it's true and that it's the word of God. I challenge myself to read my Book of Mormon each day and I can feel God's love and I cannot deny that feeling. The BOM can change your thoughts, actions, what you say, and how you feel. It's the light of my life and I am so grateful.

Last night we had the opportunity to watch "The Character of Christ." If you haven't seen it, go watch it! It's amazing. What was crazy was that the movie didn't have Close Captions or an interpreter, so I prayed to understand the movie. I understood it 100%!  How amazing prayer is! One of the most amazing stories that Elder Bednar said that touched my heart so much was about a woman who lost her daughter in a tragic accident. This woman called Elder Bednar and at the same time she was talking to the nurse.  The nurse identified that there were 3 girls who were involved in the accident and one of them had died and it was her daughter. This woman (who lives far away from the hospital) told Elder Bednar, "Can you go to the hospital and identify the girls because we need to let the other mothers know." That's a true character of Christ. She didn't ask "Why did God let this happen? My daughter is dead." She is a Relief Society President and her only child had died. The first thing that she said and did was to care about others. The morning of her daughter's funeral, a lady from her ward said that she had a cold and people were so rude that they didn't stop by to bring soup or  take care of her and she continued saying mean things to the this mother. The mother, on her way to her daughter's funeral, stopped by and gave her a meal and took care of her and then left for the funeral. That is a true chracter of Christ. She sacrificed her time loving others no matter how hard her life became for her. Elder Bednar reminded us how much Jeus Christ loves us. He died for us, He suffered for us, and no matter how many people spit upon him, beat him, scourged Him, He still loved them. When he prayed in Gethsemane he prayed and suffered for our sins, He didn't focus on himself, he focused on others. When he was Crucified, He prayed for others and he worried about his mother.

I bore my testimony in Chinese yesterday in Sacrament Meeting and it was awesome. I want to become more like Christ and each day I am learning something new. I love this gospel and I do love my Brother and my Father in Heaven. I want to bear my testimony,

Wo zhi dao Shen ai women. Wo zhi dao Yesu Jidi shi Shen de Erzi. Wo gan xie moermenjing yin wei wo ganshou ta de ai he ping an. Wo ai ni men he wo qidao wei le ni. Wo men gan zie you fuyin. Jie zhe Shengling, wo keyi zhi dao fuyin shi zhenshide.

Feng Yesu Jidu de ming Amen

I love you Mom, 

Remember that You're amazing and I think about you every single day!

Love,

Mo Jiemei!
