Well it's been a week, and a good one!

This week has been full of miracles and blessings.

First off I met my zone! We started zone meeting in the Chan kai Shek Memorial Hall, which was so cool. Taiwan has the coolest buildings I love them, and my zone is cool too :)

It got super hot in the middle of the week, super super hot. I felt like I was dying and it isn't even summer yet, yikes. But now its raining again. I almost feel like I am home in Utah. Lol

We met so many prepared people this week, and also funny people. I will tell you the funny stories first. We met two different men this week that seemed interested so we started sharing about the gospel, one of the guys stopped us and said he doesn't want the gospel and just wanted a girlfriend. so we said goodbye and started walking away. As we were walking away he yelled to us. "I JUST WANT A GIRLFRIEND" The other guy listened to us share about our purpose and we asked him if he would like to say a prayer, he said yes. So we taught him how to pray and in his prayer he asked if he could find a wife. I feel like it immediately got awkward. We met a lady and she told us she was trying to find a wife for her son. We get these things quite often. We met lots of special people this week.

We met one guy who said he had seen missionaries before but they had never talked to them, we hope to keep continuing meeting with him! He thanked us for spreading happiness and hope to the people in Taiwan, he is so nice. We were ringing doorbells and over the speaker I told this lady who we are and what we do and that we would like to share a message with her about Jesus Christ. And she let us in!! We taught her the first lesson and gave her a Book of Mormon. (lessons like these from ringing doorbells don't happen often) We had more experiences like these, and we feel very blessed.

Conference was amazing. I am so grateful that we have a prophet on the earth today. We had some of our investigators come to watch which was so exciting! We almost had to watch it in chinese because we couldn't find someone for them to sit by. But we found our bishop :) so blessed to watch it in English! Our Investigator zhang dx is amazing. He is so cool and has such a fun personality! We hung out and ate with him in between sessions of conference. I showed him pictures of my family and all my loved ones. I love pulling out my photo album and sharing my people :)

Sorry short on time but last thing, HAPPY BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK TO MY BROTHER RYAN I hope he has a good day and that my family has fun in Oregon without me :(
