Semana 34- WE'RE GOING TO CHINA!

     That's what our zone leaders told us anyway. In the middle of district meeting they all came running in and shouting "WE'RE GOING TO CHINA!"  and we were like "what the what?" Then they said "President just got a call from Church headquarters saying that China has opened its borders to missionaries, but they're not going to announce it till conference, but they've already chosen several groups of missionaries from different missionas around the world to open it up and they chose our district, and so to have time to learn the language and get a good foundation for the new mission you'll all be getting a 6 month extension to your missions! So get packed up! You're heading out May 1!" They still haven't admitted that they were April fooling us! But I heard no such announcement at general conference. I didn't buy it even when they first said it, but it was fun to daydream what it'd be like! 

     So I'd better brush up on my Chinese, since everyone's gonna expect me to be fluent because of how Asian I apparently look! Our zone leader said to me at dinner this week. "So Hermana Mohun, what race are you exactly?" Elders are really good at making small talk. 

      

     I absolutely loved general conference! We had two investigators come to the Sunday morning session! So we had to watch it in Spanish, but having it start out with President Uchtdorf right off the bat was just what our investigators needed! And they got to hear the prophet! 

     I think they got a lot out of it, all I can say is that the next Ensign can't come out fast enough! I could understand most of what the first speakers said, but the last half hour my brain was so done I really wonder what was in that session.

Remember those miracle people that we met? Carmen and Ocatvio? Carmen is all the way to mid Alma in the Book of Mormon and she's only been reading since last Tuesday! Putting me and my 80 day challenge to shame!

Well I have  to go, but I hope you are all doing great! Les quiero mucho!
