- Elder Baird's #BLESSED Mission: WEEK 35 RICHMOND: Nothing As Sweet As Tiny Little Baby Feet

Well, another week down. Living, Laughing, and especially Loving . Type beat Type beat. This week was superb so lemme tell ya about it.

To start off, being in an English zone/district is weird. Kinda miss Chinese zone, but hey, what can ya do. Well I know. Keep grinding and locking in. But district council was 完全不一样, so it'll be an interesting transfer. But hey who knows, getta learn new things. Hit a cheeky Little Caesars runs. (Glad Canada's at least got something from home) ((Rip Costa)). Had another goated lesson with Li. I usually don't do this, but if ya'll would be willing to throw a prayer his way, it would be much appreciated. Bro is sooooo ready to be baptized. Had a lesson with 范弟兄, also goated. Did our first Branch Come Follow Me, and Li even dropped some fire bars.

Goated.

Thursday morning we had a lesson with Aloysious Ho my King. It was so good. He'll be a slow one, but 慢慢來 was never a bad thing. Had our double English class, always a pleasure. Had a member visit, and got to hangout with the cutest autistic girl. So fire. Tryna help the son get on his mission too, which is lowkey so funny, cus I know exactly how it feels. Like bro, I was in your shoes like a year ago.

Went on first English exchange which was pretty fun. Elder Liechty is goated. We had some fun. We talked to this dope German dude, and bro even pulled up to church, so it was goated. We even got to pull weeds for like 2 hours, so it was pretty fun. Haven't felt the joy of lower back pain in too long. It was so crazy though, we did 4 hours of straight street contacting. I lowkey feel bad for English missionaries in Richmond, cus that's all they do. Got cussed out by a guy on the bus. Lemme tell ya, being a peacemaker is the option. Even though I always win. It's better to let the spirit win. I guess. jk. (Follow Prophets, it's the move). Finished the night of with Basketball night.

Saturday morning we had a cheeky 8am lesson with James, always goated. Got to see the Grandparents. Shoutout Papa and Kappy, It was so fire!!! Love ya'll!! Crazy to think I've been out for 8 months, and it felt like I just had said goodbye to them. Time be flying by way too fast. Ate dim sum at a friend's house. It's so goated, they feed us like once a week. So blessed! 'nother lesson with Li. Had a fire Jeopardy lesson with Anne. Had pickleball lesson. Then had the most 疯 lesson with our friend Robbie. We ended up getting home 15 minutes past second curfew. It was actually the most insane and fascinating lesson ever. But hopefully we've got him locked, and can start getting him really progressing.

Fast Sunday was goated. Chen妈妈ed it up. She's amazing. Church was goated. Fasting is always pretty difficult as a missionary, but it's so worth it. The power of fasting is true! Had a surprise friend show up which was a cool miracle. Then finished the night with a member meal. It was so delicious, and had a fire lesson with the kids.

Life is so good

Monday was goated. Had another lesson with Aloysious Ho. Bro said the most fire prayer ever. He called himself stubborn and prideful and asked God to soften his heart. Sooooo, let's go. But B'ros going to China for 6 months. Rip. . Had another friend meal. Had another math lesson with Annie and Caroline. Holy, kids are crazy sometimes. Hit some cheeky Ping Pong finding. I love Chinese people. And planned.

Also found out I lost my card, and like $100 dollars worth of cash. Actual rip. So tuff.

Today was great. Went to the temple. Always a plus. Hooped and got faded. Then had a baller English class. Met a new friend too who was like super interested in the BoM, and was like, "let's study together." And we were like, 'ight bet.

It's A Boy
