This week has been great. I decided to write my emails in Chinese. This week I have been working hard with my new partner. It’s also a fun week.
Last Monday we went to Wulai Waterfall and walked a long way, maybe more than ten kilometers haha. We also took a small train. very nice. In the evening we contacted friends and went looking for seekers. I found Steve and he was great.
On Tuesday we have district meetings and get to know members of our new district. I am a district leader and then everyone except me and my companion is a sister haha, it's like I'm a Relief Society president. We did a lot of searching anyway. I'm doing fine
In the evening we took a new member to Dancheng's activities. It is a postgraduate course. Not bad. I'm glad to be able to attend together. Then I also saw some of my friends from my previous place, especially some members from Xizhi so I felt very happy!
On Wednesday, we have a lot of classes that day, about five. They are all doing great! Do some searching too. In the evening we have an English group. I taught an intermediate class. They are all great! English group followed by a great friend with lessons. We teach the restored gospel! great
On Thursday, we did a lot of searching and had two classes! All good and the best part was we had the all-you-can-eat BBQ with a member. They do take a large hunk of beef and cut it into a steak. Super delicious! I recommend you to give it a try if you come to Taiwan!
Friday, some classes, searching, the usual stuff. I had a meeting and then we had dinner with our new members in the evening! That restaurant has all-you-can-eat milk ice cream, it’s delicious!
On Saturday, we searched for more than five hours. Couldn't find anyone. Even though the search was tough we still had a lot of fun and joy, so it doesn’t matter! We contacted friends in the evening and invited them to the party!
On Sunday, many friends said they could come but in the morning they said they couldn't. But it doesn’t matter, we had a great party and some friends still came! Because we are responsible for two wards, we attend two church meetings. We do a lot of planning and studying and then searching. The searches today and Saturday were both okay haha. But we are still working hard!
Today we went to play golf, then went to a shopping mall and played a racing game.
I love you guys so much, and finally,
I want to share the scriptures I read recently.
Alma 38:8–9
And it came to pass that I was in great anguish and sorrow of soul for three days and three nights, until, after I cried unto the Lord Jesus Christ for mercy, I received a remission of my sins. But behold, I cried unto Him, and peace was found unto my soul. 9 My son, I tell you this so that you may learn wisdom and learn from me, that you know that there is no way or means for a man to be saved except in and through Christ. Behold, He is the light and life of the world, behold, He is the word of truth and justice.
I want to share because our souls can find peace in Christ. I also like this part where he says, knowing that there is no way or means of salvation except by and through Christ. I know that every good thing comes from Christ.
Love you,
Elder Yu
