Good morning Awesome family well it is morning here but it is more like night there. Hello. I am emailing really early today because I am moving today and I have to go back to Taibei. Yup, I am moving back to almost my first area, it is called Tianmo. It almost to Shipai, not quite that far and I'm about a 20 to 25 min MRT ride away from the mission office. I'll tell you about it in a sec but want to tell you that I'm early today sorry.
So you know that I am moving to a place called Tianmo, but I still have not told you one thing... I am going to be the district leader. I am going to be companions with a new elder this will be his second transfer in Taiwan. Wow I'm not sure about this. No it will be fun I'll be able to do it. I am not sure how to spell his name right now and so I will let you know what it is next time I email. I don't know because how he says his name and how I was told it was spelt are different, so I'll see in a few hours. I'm going to be taking a 7:06 train that is a bit faster, and will get to Taipei at about 8:20, so it will be interesting. I do not know who is in my district and I'm not sure where they all are yet but I'll let you know. I know a bit about Tianmo I can tell you about. It is one of the most expensive places in Taiwan and it is not like normal Taiwan. The streets are wider and there are not a lot of stores. A lot of people say they think that it is smaller than Xinzhu so it will be fun to see. So now I'll be alot closer and be able to go get mail sooner and get them faster than here in Xin Zhu.
This week was interesting we have several things happen and it was fun to see. We can start with last Monday. We went to Costco to meet with Jerry. I'll include a photo of Jerry.
We meet with him every week at Costco. Thank you for a Costco card. While we were there Elder Millett sees some hamburger pattys and long story short we buy them and take them home to eat this week. They were soooo good. Taiwan has places with hamburgers that you can buy but they turn out to be about 60 quai for a good one,and these patty's worked out to be about 21 per hamburger. So this week we had hamburgers almost every meal; for lunch and dinner. There was 25 hamburgers in the package and since we didn't have a grill we had to make do with a pan. Reminded me of home. Another thing that we found was A&W root beer. That was good we had Rootbeer floats, it was really fun to remember fun times at home.
This week we met with quite a few people. We had 18 lessons and so that is not a few, but not the 20+ that I have had before. It is interesting to see how people work. We found some cool people last week and I'll miss seeing the investigators that we have when I go to the new area but it is a calling and so I'll go. Anyway ya we met with a bunch of people we have about 5 people that are going to be able to get baptized soon but can't right now because of word of wisdom problems. They have a plan to quit and they will be able to get their goal. It is amazing to see someone that when we met them there was not a lot of interest or understanding. To watch them change and come to Christ and our Father in Heaven and have a change of heart. It is so awesome and sad when you have to leave them and go to another place. Thank goodness that I can hear from them every now and then.
Well I need to go I love you I'm not sure if I will be able to email again this week. Can you please send to me what you sent to Mr. White so I know? Thank you.
Love you. You all are so Awesome. Thank you
