What a change

Well everyone there is a big change about! Here's what it is. My area has been changed. But I am still in Yilan... maul that around for a bit. Our Mission President has made a big change here for us all that I am super excited about Every area that has two or more sets of missioaries is now being split up to ensure that EVERY area of our area gets touched and has the people see the missionaries. So, I have been here in YiLan for 3 transfers felt like I knew it really well and now me and my companion are now being pushed into a new area to serve in here! EAST COAST! Go look on a google map of ILan and then realize that I will be biking or walking up and down the coast line of that for a while preaching the word! I am SO EXCITED! BUt it is a big change. I have NEVER been over there except on p-days and now because sisters and elders will no longer be only teaching their sex we will now be teaching men of the gospel... odd. Its been a big change already and a very hard time last night. We also have to give all of our investigators that are no longer in our area to whoever it is that IS in their area. And because I have never been in my new area at all we have now found ourselves with no investigators. OPEINING AN AREA I have already been in for months here we come! I really am super excited to be doing this with SIster O'Brien I know I am going to learn a TON! But PLEASE keep praying for all my old investigators who I can no longer teach because they are now in the elders hands. But... I need to remember they are really in the hands of the Lord.
 
So also this week I found myself in the Taiwanese tai da yi yuan which translates to Too Big Hospital.. okay no but really it is HUGE but it wasnt for me. Sister O'Brien was having some ear troubles so we went to get it checked out... pray for her. Good news is today her hearing is back! YES! BUt yeah.. taiwanese hospitals are pretty crazy you all will have to come check it out sometime it will blow your mind. Sick people EVERYWHERE oh and over an hour wait and stuff.. its real fun! :)
 
Well wish me luck and please offer prayers that this week Sister O'BRien and I will be able to find some new investigators to start working with and build up the YiLan coast line!!! I love you all have a great week!!!!
