"CHEESE Gromit!!!"


Sometimes the oranges are green here!

Hello everyone! This week was so great! (If you got the Title quote props to you)
To start off we had "Mission Tour" on Tuesday. That's when a church leader comes and they talk to us all day. It's great :D But it was pretty amazing. A close tie for the amazing spiritual feast we had, was the amazing Thanksgiving lunch they prepared for us. We walked in and literally almost cried when we saw the pumpkin pie on the table. Turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes and CHEESE, corn, cranberry sauce, rolls, salad and croutons.... we don't get any of this here, so it was really a treat!

The rest of the week was filled with riding around our huge area teaching people about the Church :D We're really out in the sticks out here; tracting at the bottom of a mountain, riding past radish fields and banana tree farms, trying to take a shortcut through the mountains and failing... So, it's quite a bit of riding, but it's fun!

Taiwan:
- Oreos get soggy in one day if you don't put them in the fridge
- Their radishes are long and white instead of short and red
- Did you know that bananas grow upwards?!

Life as a missionary
- EVERYONE gives us so much FOOD (members, investigators, neighbors, strangers...)
This week it was really amazing; after we really opened up more and had more companionship unity we saw so many miracles. Unity is important!! Don't neglect the people around you; we need each other just as much as they need you. Everyone of us is important and we need to respect and love each other to become our best self and see the Lord's true plan for us.
Keep being awesome!!

PS This year is especially hot here in Taiwan; looks like I have to pack away my coats and scarves until next year :P Haha
