It's A Small World After All

This week was definitely awesome blossom... mostly cause I'm a missionary... obvi... but I had a super insane experience that I shallst share... So twas a fine day in the city of Sydney... and we were in Chinatown doing some finding and I felt prompted to talk to this girl... so I start trying to catch up to her and then this Russian lady from Moscow stopped me and asked where this book shop was.. and so by the end of our conversation I had lost this girl... So I ran to the corner I had last seen her and started walking around for a while trying to find her.. but it was like impossible in the city with so many people... But as I was walking I had a distinct prompting "Turn Around"... So I turned around and started wandering around looking for her... and after a while I was like... So what now?... So I was at this stoplight kinda discouraged that I missed that prompting when this guy with headphones walks straight past me into the street and this car was coming about to hit him.. so I grabbed his backpack and pulled him onto the sidewalk and he just looked at me like o.O ... Then I started talking to him and ended up getting his number because he was interested in church!.... :O ... And so I kinda evaluated the situation after, like what the heck just happened hahah... But I came to the conclusion that the spirit prompted me to follow her to lead me to this guy to potentially save him from harmful injury!.. And I was just super humbled that I was able to receive such a critical prompting and follow it... Otherwise... who knows what would've happened.

So like a month ago I met this golden as Chinese guy on the street.. and he said he's always wanted to come to church forever but was afraid his english wasn't that great and he wouldn't understand... (his english is real good though.. he's just humble)... And so he texted us out of nowhere on Friday and said he wanted to meet!! And that may not sound like a big deal... but when we meet people and give them our number... 100% of them NEVER contact you... and so we were like WOOOO!!! And so we met him at 3:30 right?.... We had a crazy lesson and committed him to baptism (1st lesson) and then he enjoyed being with us so much... we then went out to dinner and he stayed for Game Night at the church until like 8:30 hahahah. He just stayed 5 hours at the church that whole afternoon... Even when we had another lesson at 6 we didn't know what to do with him and he was like.. Oh it's fine.. I feel really warm in the church so I'll just wait for you here!.... o.O GOLDEN AS!.. Hahaha I was so pumped!...

And then another thing which was RIDIC!.... ANDRES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was Mormon Security for church.. which means I had to stand outside and greet people and let them in etc. And I'm blind obvi... and saw some people I didn't recognize and was like who are they?... And Elder H was like "Ah some people from the Stake"... And so I go to open the door and wait... and then I see Andres walk up.... I was like WHAT?!?! NO WAY!!!! Hahahah he had come to our branch to see his cousin give a talk hahaha. It was so awesome!!! Such a small world!
