Heaven is Pho Real: The WNBA has come to Vietnam

- According to the security guard at one of the local coffee shops, that is. Chi Chau and I went there this past week to do weekly planning in a more open area, and as soon as we got off our bikes he asked us if we were part of the WNBA! Perks of being 2 feet taller than everyone else in the country. Our response? Yes, we are part of the WNBA. Unfortunately, chi Chau and I don't have perfect companionship unity and said two different team names when he asked what team, and even better, neither of the names we said were actually WNBA teams (Lakers and Wombats. Didn't fool him.)

Yesterday at church, our investigator stood up and shared everything there is to know about Tuberculosis (there's been a mini outbreak, but nothing to be worried about). When she was asked, "How best can we strengthen our immune system so that we don't get TB?" She responded, "Lời Thông Sáng của Chúa đó!!" Which basically translates into, "The Lord's Word of Wisdom! DUH!" You go, girl. We haven't even taught about the word of wisdom yet. I love her so much.

Other progress with our wonderful investigators: We taught Co Huong and Chi Thanh about temples the other day, and as always, Co Huong gave one of the best comments after the lesson: "Chúng ta không cần đợi để lên thiên đàng. Chúng ta chỉ cần đi Salt Lake City, Utah và đi vào những đền thờ ở đó, đi lên phòng thượng thiên. Mình ở thiên đàng rồi." (We don't need to wait to get to paradise, let's just go to Salt Lake City and visit all the temples there and go into the Celestial Room. That's paradise already.) She's the best.

Since I'm lacking on the spiritual thought for this email (xin tha thu cho con nhe) here's a link to view a video about temples: https://www.lds.org/media-library/video/2013-02-1070-temples?lang=eng

It's a really cheesy video and reminds me a lot of The District, but every once in a while it's good to have stuff like that in your life. I'll be having a lot of The District in my life this upcoming transfer because I've been called to train again. But now that I'm watching through that video, it's kinda of not fun, so here's a different video:

And if you don't like watching videos, here's just a link to some pictures: https://www.lds.org/search?q=temples&lang=eng&domains=images

Wow. So many options.

Well, thanks for all the updates, emails, pictures. Have a great week!
