I
spend so much time at this place. It my favorite store in Taiwan. I took
pictures so you could see it. We call phones, eat, meet new friends, use the
ATM, and buy stamps here. It’s everything you could want and more. It’s just
around the corner of the church.
I don’t know what to tell you other then my favorite parts of my
week.
Monday- I got to see my investigators and missionary friends. Oh
the blessing of living in the mission home area! It was such a fun day!! We ran
around tracking down less actives, and everyone we bumped into was either
looking for us, or we were looking for them.
Tuesday-Even though are recent convert was ridiculously busy she
still managed to find time to come to the church to surprise us with some
treats to say thank you for helping her get baptized.
Wednesday-English class was a blast not only because I we played
games but friends ages 9 to 60 all participated in the animal game. I was
dying. They were all so cute, and so brave. I was a proud teacher.
Thursday- A handful of members from China came to tour the
church! It was their first chapel they had ever seen. It was incredible to see
their faces as they looked around. It made me so grateful to be in Taiwan
serving a mission. I can’t wait until China opens.
Friday-We went on our less active hunt again, and we
couldn’t find anyone, so we decided to tract near by. We came to a street said
a prayer, and both my companion and I agreed to turn right and start on the
right side of the street. We started at the top and went all the way down the
bottom with no success. As we were walking back to our bikes the house we had
parked in front of had a family just get home. As we started talking to the Mom
we found out that she had contacted the missionaries last year, and recognized
that us meeting her that night was a sign that she needed to start meeting with
us. It was the very last house of the night. :)
Saturday- We went out to lunch with our Recent Convert and his
mom. Our other Recent Convert came back from Taibei so we could meet
with her, and another one of our RC missed us so she came to the church and put
off her plans so she could spend the night with us at the
baptism. Our incredible investigator came to a baptism as well, and loved
it. She is way excited for her own baptism in a couple of weeks.
Sunday-We visited the Liston’s at dinner and had a great talk
with them. They are incredible. Melody also came to church and we had an
incredible lesson with her afterwards. My little RC sat next to me in sacrament
and I gave him a coloring Paige of Nephi building a boat. He drew me a picture
of my self, and my nose took up half of my face. He wanted to wear my CTR ring
during church, and so I wore his. I really likes it. I am giving it to him
before I leave.
I love you guys.
Have a great week.
