| Riding to "Secondary Area" |
From Jan 5 email:
My companion and I decided to start a weekly movie night on
Sundays for Recent Converts, Less-Active members and investigators. Last night
was the first one and we (all the missionaries) had 2 LAs and 3 investigators!
Not bad for starting to get the word out on Friday afternoon! It's a good
start!
We've had a lot of really powerful, spiritual lessons
lately; this week we got 3 new investigators and went with one of our other
investigators to buy church clothes and get a haircut. He's looking pretty good
to be baptized. He's already passed the interview and everything!
On Friday we went to our secondary area for a lesson. It's
pretty much an unpopulated mountain with big spiders, betel nut trees and bumpy
roads and hills (we got to 30 mph from a dead stop going down a hill without
pedaling)
From Jan 12 email:
Well, this week was pretty darn fast! This is the last week
of my 11th transfer!
We went to TaiZhong on Monday for Pday and went to the big
mall and the mission home for a couple hours. It was about an hour bus ride
there and a 35 minute taxi-bus thing back (they took the highway instead of the
normal roads with bus stops).
On Tuesday we had Zone Training Meeting in a different area
(YuanLin) so we took another bus (about 70 minutes) and had to wait until
5:10pm for the bus back. It was a good ZTM, but it took SO MUCH time out of our
day, so it wasn't too effective for proselyting or lessons.
We got 3 member referrals on Wednesday and also met with
each of them too! So Wednesday made up for Tuesday I guess! :) At English class
I taught about culinary arts and cooking terminology and one of the students
gave me an herb to try to use in food. it's called 刺蔥 (it means 'Thorn
Onion). I've never heard of it and the flavor is super weak. I'll figure
something out!
We have a few great investigators that are pretty promising.
One is named J. and the only reason he won't come to church or be baptized is
because he wants his wife to join him, but she doesn't want to. Last time we
met with both of them, she agreed to meet with us and the Sisters next time.
next time is tonight! We'll see how it goes!
I've been really slow at writing stuff today and nothing
much happened besides what I've already said so...yeah. I guess that's
it!
Love you all! Have a great week!
