Hey everyone! this week was amazing! We got a couple new investigators and an investigator on date! It was a very spiritually up lifting week. Last p-day we went to this historical site called Gandan. Gandan is a giant monastery complex at the center of the city. It was super cool and has a bunch of building with religious artifacts, statues, and places for rituals. It also has this enormous statue of a buddha (I think) and other smaller statues and statuettes. Afterwards we went to a owoo nearby that was a large land mark for the city of UB. Also we had this experience where we were looking for a ward member and we went to his apartment building where we met a little boy. The little kid asked who we were looking for and he helped us look for the member. We did find him, but as we left the little kid looked up at us and asked, "Will I ever see you again?" I looked at him and said. "Eventually we'll meet again." As we walked away I thought of that scene on the iron giant where he flies away. It was a very touching moment. It was a very good week with a lot of exciting stuff happening.

This week was really great! We went to the silver Chingis statue with Elders Chinbat and Davidson. Is was an awesome experience to see it again. It was really cool to get to leave the city again and see some of the countryside. This week was very interesting cause we had a few investigators fall off date and we're just trying to work with some of our people. This week during personal study i studied a lot about the holy ghost and I read a scripture about how any good feeling or any good thing is from the holy ghost that really stood out to me. And I've found that to be definitely true. God gives us all things thru the holy ghost. Alright have a good week everyone!

Hey everyone this week was really good, irmuun got the holy ghost and our work has been really good. Last p-day there was this place I heard about in the city that had fossils and supposedly was a really big mall also. So we went out to the edge of the city where we saw a full sized mall and inside, we found fossils of dinosaurs! it was a really nice mall! Then the next biggest thing that happened this week was that I got my flight plans! I'm flying thru Beijeng. It's super exciting cause I'm getting ready to leave pretty soon! It will be crazy to be back in America! Today Elder Ogden and I are going to the silver Chingis statue with some other elders. So I'll send more pictures from that.
