Before it happened we saw the black clouds in the distance. We had some good lessons. One was on the restoration. One of my favorite parts! We then had a great english group on music and instruments! On the way home I bought some 冰。it's basically shaved ice. It was milk and strawberry shaved ice. So yummy! 

Thursday we went up to 八德 bade, which is the sisters area in my district. We went there to the 八德chapel for interviews. Man I love interviews with the president and his wife. They are always so great. Have gave our district 2 thousand kuai (taiwan money). So we all got burgers and it was fire. After that we headed back to our area and one of our friends just pulled up to the church outa no where and he also bought us some 剉冰, Taiwanese shaved ice. Very tasty. We also had some good lessons and stuff.

And we ate some stinky tofu. I personally thing it's good. At night we had more lessons. They were all great. I hope our friends progress!

Saturday is 21 Savage day, aka the 21st of every month! We exchanged back. We had a lesson and alot of finding,  the 2nd part finding was low key so hard. Idk why, just felt down.



Sunday we went to church and a couple friends who said they weren't going to come came. So that wad very exciting. Me and my companion were very happy. One of our friends who came to church has a lit camper on the back of his truck which is fun haha. We took a picture together. After church we headed home and did all our stuff and yeah, it was a regular Sunday. 



Today we are going with a friend to eat lunch then go up to the 石門水庫, Shimen reservoir. So that should be lit.

速度與激情九 - Week 93



This week was great. We had good time! 



After pday last monday (9日) we had an interesting lesson. The guy was not very interested. He was a referal from other missionaries. After we did some finding and yeah.


10日(周二) we went over to 中壢 zhong li for district council, it was great, we then ate lunch together. After that we headed back to our area. It's a decently long travel. We got back and bad some studies and also lessons + finding. 


11日(周三) we did a fat block of morning finding. These three days monday Tuesday and Wednesday, we didn't find a single soul haha. Oh well. We had our english group and a couple lessons so that was good. 


12日(周四) was a great day, we found some friends!!! We had some fun lessons on the word of wisdom. That's always a big one here. So yeah a bunch of lessons and some gold finding. We ate some burger King because we wanted the new jurassic world cup, we thought it was a plastic cup or something but it was paper 😢.  


13日(周五)we had some great finding and stacked lessons at night. As a mission we are getting better at having many lessons and people to church. Its pretty insane. When I first got to taiwan for the first many transfers we didn't go that crazy. God's work is truly hastening and I can witness that. 


14日(周六)we were going to have a lesson with this one guy but he was so late that we had to cancel and just set up next time lol. But we had a different lesson which was one of the best lessons we have had! It was so great. Later that night a member that I know came down to visit so we ate dinner together. That was 👍


 15日(周日)Sunday was great, I was supposed to give a 15 minute talk but the people talked alot so it was only 5 minutes which was good ig. After church we had a meeting and also we had one of our friends give us lunch so that was very yummy and awesome. We then had all our studies, planning and contacting. Then a great lesson with our friend Olivia from china. She is pretty lit. Her accent is pretty fun. And we had a great lesson on prayer and reading and she seems down to do it!


16日(周一)
We had district council and ate some fire beef noodles with all you can eat ice cream and drinks. It was great. We also had some finding. We got a great referal and we found some others which was great. We then had two pretty great lessons


17日(周二)today is our pday. So that we can go to the temple, turns out my temple recommend is expired so I couldn't go in for ordinances. It's so unfortunate 😞


The missionary work has been great. I'm just trying to make my last two weeks or so the best I can. No regrets. I don't have alot of time but hope I can make a big impact. We will see. 

Love you all,
Elder Clegg
