Move call

Well sorry to email so late. Movecall is today and I got kicked out of Xihu and I moved down to the city of Gaoxiong and my area is called Nanzi. Gaoxiong is in the south part of the island and it is super hot. Super hot. It's the second biggest city in Taiwan and I am super excited to be here! My new companion is Elder Williams! He is super awesome! He was born in Australia, moved to Provo, then to New Zealand, and then Samoa! He is awesome and we have already been talking about how great New Zealand is haha. I'm really excited to serve with him!! 

This last week was really good! It was so sad to move from Xihu. I love that ward so much and I really had a blast there. Elder Osborne was so much fun! This last week we were able to meet with our investigator 楊志恆. He is so awesome! We taught him some of the commandments. When teaching the Word of Wisdom to people in Taiwan, it is a little difficult because everyone here drinks tea. Everyone. But we asked him if he has any problems with this and he said no. He like never drinks tea. Crazy. That's almost unheard of! He is super cool even though he is super quiet and hard to understand. He is still on track to get baptized on the 16th and I'm excited for that!

Yesterday was a super good day at church! We were able to get 4 investigators show up and it was a great Sacrament Meeting! The ward was so happy and excited to see so many investigators! Also our RC Hubert gave a talk and it was super awesome. This last week we watched the Restoration with him and he talked about that in his talk and he is just super solid. I was kind of nervous about his testimony, but after listening to his talk, he is solid. I'm so glad to have been able to watch him get baptized and grow after baptism!

I'm trying to think of what else happened this week.. but I can't really remember. Sorry 
But as I was riding the train down to Gaoxiong this morning, I was looking out the window and I just couldn't help but think how much I love Taiwan. It's so beautiful and amazing. From the city to the rice fields, it's all the best. I'm so grateful that the Lord has given me the opportunity to serve Him here in the beautiful country of Taiwan. 

I hope you all have another great week! Love you all!

Love

Elder Anderson
