Alright for the other fun adventures this week! We met with a Brother Huang who met with missionaries before about two years ago was taught all the lessons and even had a baptismal interview but then ultimately didn't end up getting baptized for some reason. Anyway we met with him and he completely forgot everything. However he still had a Book of Mormon. The cool part was the lesson got started off all awkward as Sister Cardon and I were trying to get a feel for each other and in what she was going to want to say in the lesson and then the spirit just took over and words came flowing to both me and her as we taught with great clarity and power of the book of mormon. I am not bragging it was NOT me. I have never done that before and if its not the Lord's will I will never be able to do it again. All I know was that it was one of the coolest lesson's I have ever been in and it really strengthened me. Let me quickly share with you all, it is TRUE. The book of mormon really is true. The accounts really did happen and what does that mean why would that be important?? Because that means that Christ really is risen and he really is our savior just like all the prophets said he is. I know that it is true.
Next cool moment. We had just biked back home from an appointment and started DPS I asked my companion if she could lead us the next day to our lessons. She looked at me and shook her head a little. I chuckled and asked, "do you know where the McDonalds is that we JUST came from? Can you get us to there?" she looked at me in deep thought retracing how we got back home then looked again and shook her head. I started laughing super hard as I told her "Its just down the street no turns or anything you get on the street and go straight :) " Then we were both laughing as she told me "Okay look its not my fault I can't pay attention to where we are going I'm trying not to get killed!!!" haha shes right the streets in Taiwan are a little scary I don't blame her! Then the next day she really did lead us there! Haha too fun! LOAM! (life of a missionary)
UHmm... okay trying to think of another story I could tell you...UHMMM... Oh! Yesterday we were biking to a dinner appointment with a member here and Sister MIller and her baby were leading the way we were biking pretty fast cause we were almost late well I have been very good recently at checking behind me to make sure my companion is there and safe well I hadn't looked back for a while and suddenly got a yucky feeling and thought to look back I was worried she had gotten hit by a car.... I looked back and saw here there but suddenly she stood up on her bike pedals and stopped. I had just rounded a turn cause I had saw she was safe so kept going then saw the had stopped. So I waited for a few seconds she didn't come so went back to check and her bike chain had popped of in the moment she stopped the same moment I felt to look back. Now maybe she wasn't in huge danger but if I hadn't looked I wouldn't have known she had stopped and I would have kept going yes I would have looked and noticed soon enough she wasn't there but it would have made her super nervous and worried. We got the chain back on and got going again! I love the Spirit. He's a super cool guy to have around.
Okay I think thats all the stories that I have left in me... hope thats okay! Love you all!
