Week 2 in Taiwan

Good morning everyone!! Waa I just love Taiwan. It's so awesome! This week was super good! One of our investigators just had his baptismal interview yesterday and he is going to get baptized on Halloween!! I'm so excited! We had another investigator with the same goal, but we have to change his because he is super busy with work and he will be out of town in Taipei. So that was a bummer. This week was super super awesome. On Tuesday, one of the assistants called us and told us to check our referral system so we did.... we now have 38 referrals!!!!! Suuuper cool! There was a clog in the system but he fixed it so now we have tons of referrals we need to call!! Plus another companionship referred us to this guy that wants to be baptized! We haven't met with him yet but we will soon.

This week's miracle came from one of our lessons with a less active member. We really wanted to get a peike (active member to come with us) but everyone that we called either didn't answer or they didn't have time. But like 20 minutes before we left for the lessons, one of the members called us back and came with us! It was such a blessing. He helped us out a ton and the LA came to church yesterday!! Oh man, speaking of church I had to bear my testimony in front of the whole ward yesterday. Yeah, that was a little scary! And then in Priesthood the teacher asked me a question to start the class and I had no idea what he was saying and it was the worst. That is basically how things are going for me lately. I have no idea what anyone is saying! 

When we do our english class proselyting, I tell them we have a free english class and then they will say something that I don't understand and then I tell them that we have a free english class and make them feel uncomfortable so they take the flyer. That's about all I can do. This week during english me and my companion got to teach the xiao peng you's (the little kids). Oh man, they were so crazy. Literally bouncing off the walls. If that is what nursery is like, I never want to teach that. 

I love the members here in Tanzi. They are just the best and they are always willing to help us out. And they cook super good food so that's a plus. Like every single person here knows Marissa and they think we look alike. They also think I look Asian and always ask if any of my parents are Asian. No, I'm not....But yeah they are super cool. One of our investigators came to church and we were sitting in the chapel and a member had greeted him and brought him to us. Super cool!

Anyways, Taiwan is the best place. I'm so glad I get to serve the Lord here.

I love you all a ton!
