Miracles!

Dear Family and Friends,

This week was fantastic, because Lucy our investigator was baptized.  She is amazing and is one of the best people I have ever taught.

It was also transfer week, but I AM STAYING!  YAYAYAYAYAY

I love this area and the people in it.  So grateful for that, but everything else was alright.

We ended up singing for Sunday twice, and it was just ok. :)  We have been blessed with so many amazing things, and we are so excited for the future.

This Christmas will definitely be a great christmas.

For thanksgiving, I was just able to show gratitude, but we didn't celebrate it.  I think we had subway that day. Haha

Anyways

LOVE YOU HEAPS

Trunk or Treat!

Well, it is beginning to be November...  Time has been too fast!  However, we are super excited for what we have been doing here in the work.  A lot more people are listening to our message and definitely coming closer to Jesus Christ.  We are trying our best to work with all our might, and to continually learn and grow ourselves.

One of our mottoes is this: Study, believe, love, live and teach.  In the Preach My Gospel (our study manual) it says that is what we must do.  I totally agree.  For anything really we need to do that.  If we have a job or a hobby, we need to study about it, believe we can achieve it, love it, live what it is, and then help others learn it.  It is a never ending cycle of life.

Anyways, our ward had an activity celebrating Halloween.  It was called trunk or treat, where people would bring their cars to the church and decorate their 'boots' (trunks) and give lollies out (candy).

It was awesome.

Besides that, we are super excited for this month!!

Love you all so very much, and hope you have a wonderful week!!!

I am Chinese :)

Dear family and friends,

Apparently, I am chinese.  Haha, one of the members thought that I was Chinese, and just commented on how when I go back home, I will be able to do the work there as well.  I just nodded my head, and accepted the fact that one day I would be chinese.  :)  Especially here in my new area (I've only been here for 2 months now) and people speak to me in Chinese.  I kind of wish I studied it before, so I can understand what they are saying to me. 

Anyways, this week has been pretty good.  We were able to get a lot of things done, and succeed in many of our goals. 

It is amazing to see the change of missionaries and how fast we adjust to new things.  Especially new companions. 

Elder Reiner is super funny, and he loves music.  One could say that he is a professional whistler.  I am practicing, but nevertheless my whistling skills are not progressing.  Insomuch, I have given up the course of Whistling 101

Besides that, I am doing well. :)

LOVE YOU HEAPS

New transfer - Bitter sweet

Hey Friends and Family!

Bitter Sweet news.  My companion got transferred, :( but I got a new companion. :) And guess what (SHOUT OUT TO MY GERMAN SPEAKING MISSIONARIES) He is German! 

His name is Elder Reiner, and he is super German.  It reminds me of all the german friends I had back home. :) 

Anyways, the work here is progressing and we are seeing so much success.  It is seriously unbelievable.  We are able to see the changes, and things that can help our area grow.

Same old in the university work.  We are teaching a lot, and seeing many amazing successes.  We have some baptisms scheduled for next month, so I will keep you posted.

I decided that I would just send heaps of pictures, so here you go!

LOVE YOU HEAPS

This is my companion Elder Reiner :)
Hab dich lieb! ♥

Fizzy

Dear friends and family!

I am doing well this week.  We were able to watch general conference this week.  A little late, but it was fantastic!  One thing I loved was the opportunity that some of the general authorities had to speak in their own language!  I can't wait until a Korean will speak!

One of our investigators is italian, and he is so cool!  His name is actually Michael, so it's pretty weird hearing my name, because I haven't heard it in ages, but he is super awesome!  

I am so happy to be here, and especially to be in this particular area.

OH!  One of our members is KOREAN!  Anyways, they had us over, and we had all the korean food you could imagine.  It made me so happy!  :)

The reason why the title is named Fizzy, is because (FUN FACT) Fizzy = soda!

Cool, huh?

Life is still moving.  I love this gospel, and I am truly excited for this week!

LOVE YOU HEAPS

Spring = Summer

Dear family and friends!

What a glorious time to be here in Sydney!  

My companion and I are spending a wonderful time here helping the work of salvation progress in our area.  It has been a little difficult, because everyone is away on holiday due to mid semester break, but we know we will find people anyways.

It has been getting hot, and although we are sweating more, my tan is getting better :).  Anyways, we were blessed to have meetings with our mission president this last week, and it was all about the Book of Mormon, and as well as receiving answers to our questions.  

I really felt like it was for me, and how I could continue to help others receive answers to their questions through prayer.  

My companion is really teaching me the ways of a true blue 'Aussie' Accent.  I am SO excited to share it with all of you, but I am also practicing the good ol' british accent as well, because we have more British members than Aussie in our ward. O.o

Besides that, I am doing well.  

LOVE YOU HEAPS

Getting warmer

Hey Family and Friends,

Life here in Australia is pretty good.  We are doing fantastic, and it is insane!  There is a crazy miracle I wanted to share this week.  So on Sunday, a man just came into church, and told us that he was from Milan, Italy, and he just came 2 weeks ago.  Apparently, he was taught there, and he moved here to work, and he promised the missionaries there that he would visit church.  The day before he spent 3 hours of his time to try to find the right place, so he could get there on time for sunday!  

But the miracle is, he wants to meet with us!  He is awesome and his name is Michael O.o  

Ha, it is a little awkward when members say hi to him, because I am thinking, "how did they know my name?"  Then I remember that it is Michael's name.

Life is very busy, but I know as I keep going that we will be able to see so many blessings and miracles.

Apparently though, in our zone, one of the missionaries is from ELKO, NEVADA!!!!  His name is Elder Jordan and he is actually speaking korean. But, that is where Elder Han^2 is serving at the moment.  Shout out to him. :)

Have you ever fast forwarded a scene just to get to another scene, well, I feel like that on my mission right now.  It is as if someone is hitting the fast forward button times 4 and it is not even funny.  Weeks are going by too fast!~

But, all is well in Australia, and my accent is getting better.  Indeed, the ironic thing is, that as it has been improving, I was moved to a ward where there are barely any Aussies.  It consists of Americans, New Zealanders, Filipinos, Samoans, and Chinese!  

Anyways, love you all so very much

Elder Han
