1st week in Dan-Shui

Elder Coletti's Letter 05/01/2016:

This week Elder Francis and I had a baptism which was super sweet! His name is Zhou Bo Qian. Some Elders found him a while back . Elder Francis has been working with him and was able to help him progress to baptism. Elder Francis did a really great job with him and I was glad to play (although very small) a part in his conversion. We will definitely continue to help him!

The work is going really well here. We have an investigator, Jiang (ˋ江) that should be getting baptized in 2 weeks if all goes smoothly with her. Also we are working with another woman named Gao (高) who is super close to baptism! All she needs at this point is to decide to be baptized. She has been too church over 10X and has had up to the 5th lesson. She is super awesome and will be great once she commits. We are also working with a 16 year old boy named Mike who is super sweet! We usually try to stay clear of younger investigators because they are usually super immature and not too prepared. Mike is wise beyond his years! We will be starting to teach him about  the commandments soon, so we shall see how he receptive he is.

I absolutely love it here in DanShui.  It is such a beautiful area.  Elder Francis is a great missionary!  I am learning so much about how to become a better teacher from him.  He has helped me in simplifying my approach in order for the investigators to understand the gospel of Christ.
