I'm Becoming Less White!

This week was crazy!

First, last P-day we had a blast. We were going to go hiking but it started pouring when we got up there, so we just took some pictures in the rain. Then we decided to go bowling instead. It was way fun even though I was awful at it. Then we ate bing (ice). It's a thing here. Like a snow cone, but not... ice with fruit and milky stuff (or beans if you're a Taiwan person).

 

 

Typoon day!!! It wasn't as exciting as I thought it would be; the strong winds didn't get to us cause we're past the mountains. So it was pretty much rain. LOTS of rain. That day we had interviews with our mission President. Yay! So everyone was soaked coming in. But it was a great learning opportunity for me. Later we biked all the way to an investigator's house, then we REALLY got soaked. But it was worth it. Typoon rain is like sheets of water coming down, like waves but coming from the sky, haha. I wish I was better at describing it, but... you'll just have to come to Taiwan someday. That night, even though the rain had pretty much stopped, NO ONE came to English class. We normally have like 80 people. We had 11. Crazy! No one goes anywhere on Typhoon day. Unless you're a missionary. Haha.

 

 

We had lots of miracles this week! Found lots of great people. But we also got fanged a lot (stood up), which was sad and frustrating. But! I think I learned a lot about faith. And how true faith can't be shaken by anything that happens or doesn't happen. Faith is constant and unwavering. As we strive to develop this kind of faith, our lives will be happier, we'll see more miracles, and we'll always have God's help.

 

Keep doing awesome things and remember to build your foundation on Christ! (Helaman 5:12)

Oh PS: I'm becoming less white. It's true. Taiwan is hot. Also I'm forgetting more of my English and slowly becoming Taiwanese. I guess that's good :)
