St. Catharines

Well this week has been great. We found six new people who wanted to learn more. Well it is hard not to just jump into work with elder Omer its great to be serving with him. Our first night here we had about 20 min. Tell we had to be in so rather then me unpacking we went staight to work. we went to what I thought was the middle of no where and we go to the street and see a person walking our way abnd he turned out to be chinese and ainvited us over to his house right then to teach him. yet that didnt turn out to be so hot, but it did turn out to be useful Eldedr Omer taught him in chinese about prayer. Then the next day we met up with him again and he brought two friends along with him! Oh yeah so I am the English missionary and Elder Omer is the Chinese, so we teach a lot. Sad story is we have way more chinese investigators then English. Mostly cuz we are on campus a whole lot where we are not suppose to be and he can contact in chinese cuz no one knows what he is saying so I just do nothing. I do laugh with the suprized chinese people at this goofy blonde hair blue eye missionary speaking nearly flawless chinese. I was talking to one this week and he told me my companion speaks better chinese then most chinese! We also picked up a new English investigator this week too, he is from Clagary. He said he knew some friends that were members but they never told him anything about the church. It made me think about how much I shared with my friends. its sad that we dont really know who is interested, but we sometime put no in their mouths for them. Progressing we have two china. Can who is getting baptized on Sunday as of right now, but as Elder Omer and I talked about it we think it would be good to push it back, so we can have time to really teach him everything else. Then we have Jamie who is a sweet girl who just seems so elect, but has a few hard struggles but she loves the prayer thing. She is just so good at it. The first time I met here she was like really excited about how she prayed and how it helped her. Its one of the best feelings to see people come closer to God. And well we had a great baptism this week, Su! She is just really amazing girl. She is going to be a great missionary someday. The night of her baptism we left it to go downtown to contact and she calls saying she just saw us and wanted us to come over. So we went to the bus stop and were talking when some people walked by who we contacted and she chipped in her testimony and how listening to us has improved her life so much. Then the next day she was confirmed and we were teaching like 3 people at the school library and she was there and joined us for a lesson. Then the person who we were teaching asked if we had any commandments and Su just says, yes we do but we are not talking about that today, maybe another time. Here she handdled it so well, like she studding PMG herself!
I am doing great with Elder Omer. he is really fun to serve with. And to be honest I love being Junior again! :) In his Language study I spend the hour cleaning our apartment which is really bad. I am just trying to get rid of the mold and gunk that is everywhere in the apartment. Today we are going to look for a new apartment though .I am learning a lot from Elder Omer, and I am working on my listening too. Well not just my listening but my body language in my listening. i am the worst at matching my body language to my feelings I almost feel sorry for those I talk to.
In my studies I started a new study of the Book of Mormon. I am marking a whole lot so my reading is going way slow. I started at the begging but I do that for the first 30 min then look at a lesson we are teaching that day and it takes me to a chapter in the Book of Mormon then I read that chapter and that normally takes me to the end of my study! Hopefully I can get the apartment clean this week so I can just extend my study during Elder Omer's Language study.
Well hope you enjoy my week as much as I did. Love you all!
Elder Allen
