sauce me

shout out to Elder Bates for being a 工具 and teaching me all the words i have never learned. This week has been pretty awesome actually! So the beginning of our fun week. Transfers rolled in! And now we are beginning the last transfer. I received a new companion! His name is Elder Endicott! HE is from Sandy, Utah! HE comes from a great family, and is part poly! He is a good looking guy!! And he is a hard working Elder. He just finished training so I am his "breaker".

Elder Vincent was sent to Hualian, land of promise and beauty!! We are gonna miss him! I love that guy!!! We began the final transfer pretty well, we said good bye to all of the investigators and members Monday through Thursday, then Thursday through Sundaywas pretty blank. But Sunday is pretty awesome!!! we biked out to a place called xinpu, which is really awesome!! Missionaries hadn't been there in quite a while. Its a little more traditional and its small but it was really fun!!!

Rising Storm

Well last pday of the transfer and the sad fact that my companion has already been here for 4. I will probably be picking up a new comp this week! But this week was CHINESE NEW YEAR, and it has been a blessed time. The last couple days Our members have been giving us 2 meals day everyday. I had 4 meals of steak in a row. It was delicious and very very heavy. My companion woke up this morning looks at me and says, "i just want to be hungry again" hahaha this is a great time in taiwan!!

We still saw some really cool miracles. Because during the new year, the tradition is everything closes and everyone goes home. So Literally anyone left here is not from here, and will be returning home after. Also The amount of people left around is soooo few. It turns to a ghost town for a few days its crazy. So the members give us things to eat, and give us things to do.

SHAKIN

pretty fun! WE have had some good earthquakes on the east coast. However on the west coast we got a few good rollers. So the east coast took a good hit! Everyone was having a good time! the missionaries there are all safe! It happened a couple nights in a row about the same time! They start and kind of feell like your about to throw up and then after a second you just realize your whole building is moving. And we live pretty high up. It is pretty fun!

We had our main man Howard get baptized! He has been working on it for almost a year now, But we just gave him the time,and he came to the desire to do it! And then it was simple! We had to review everything with him, but it was pretty awesome!!

We saw some crazy miracles this week! We decided after receiving a good training about baptismal dates, we went and invited a ton of people and Heavenly Father blessed us accordingly. It has been incredible! We have seen a ton of miracles.

We brought the american tradition of ice cream after a church meeting! aw yeah

RAIN AND COLD

Well it has been rainy and cold. for a straight week now and the wind is very constant. It has put a real damper and the work. However we saw some super sick miracles this week. As we were strolling home from the land of 六家 we ran into a family of 5 people that were really awesome! after a little contact with them they told us to come by and visit their brunch shop. We are excited about that one!!! We have been teachng some super awesome people lately, we have an interview for one today!!! So he could use some prayers. HE will be ready though!!!

For the record last winter was either not nearly this bad, or the east coast is legit warmer than the rest of taiwan. My hands and feet aren't warm unless I am in my blankets or just out of the shower. However it has been a ton f fun. We live with four elders and we do a good job at keeping high spirits!!  we had a sunday feast that was a little bit ridiculous. And not very healthy but really fun!!

love yall
