WEEK 9--21 Savage Day

 

This week went well I would say.

One thing the mission does. It helps you appreciate and be greatful for everything.  For family, hobbies, life and other stuff. I'm greatful for that.

Last pday we went to a Costco for lunch. Pizza and hotdogs. Not as good as on america but still fire. We then went to a college campus and played some soccer then we played basketball with some random kids. It was really fun.

Zone council and taught two friends on Tuesday. We talked about Halloween in our English group.

I think Halloween may be my favorite holiday. I love scary movies and scary games. The whole vibe of Halloween is sick. We had a Halloween party on Saturday with the ward. It was for the kids. It was pretty fun.

We set up a lesson with one of our friends and he doesn't have a phone so we can't text him. We also got two peike's which is a term for a member accompanying the lesson. He didn't show up. So the members took us to dinner to this BBQ place.

You get to go choose any meats you want and vegetables and you bring it back to the table and you cook it yourself it's really fire tbh.

Sunday. Taking the sacrament is always peaceful.

Then we helped someone with English over call. And did a little street finding.

We went to visits the Hong family at 7:30. They were really nice and it was good. They have two younger boys. We forgot to get a picture. Another elder added us to a group chat with this person. And she is crazy lol.

We did alot of street contacting as well. I'm still not good at it but it's getting better. My Chinese is better but it feels worse. If that makes sense.

My companion is really fun, I like him alot.

We made a new holiday. Every 21st of every month is 21 Savage day. So mark that on your calendars. It's the best day ever.

I hope everyone is doing well.

Love you all 很多。

WEEK 7--Transferred to TuCheng!

This week was pretty good 

On Tuesday we taught this guy who believes in the Bible but he was arguing that the Book of Mormon isn't historical or real. So it didn't go that well but whatever. 

We went to an area as a zone and did some zone finding it was good. I went to a really beautiful nature walk place.

Wednesday we have a new friend named John. He has been reading the Book of Mormon and seems to be doing really good. We taught him the plan of salvation. It went really well.

Thursday we played some basketball at night. We played with the same people we usually see there. It was really fun to play with them.

Friday we did a ping-pong activity. A decent amount of people showed up and it was really fun. A girl and a guy who both speak amazing English came. And we talked about music artists. And some other Things. It was fun.

Saturday we had a family history activity we went and passed out fliers for a couple hours. And the activity went well. A lot of people came which was good.

Sunday I packed up all my stuff because today I transfer. 

My new companion is Elder Mehr. And my new area is TuCheng. I'm pretty nervous actually. But it should be a fun change. 

I love you all.

WEEK 6 in TAIWAN--Ping Pong

Tuesday after we had district council. We did a exchange. I went with Elder Merritt to his area. Me and Matt Merritt were good childhood friends. We had a fun time street contacting people and just catching up on things we needed to do.

It was really nice change for me. 

Wednesday we did an English group. Where we discussed about our favorite movies and shows. It was cool to get yo know the people who came more.

Friday we had a lesson with our new friend. About the restoration and the book of Mormon. Later we went to diner with a former but he was actually a member in a different area. We went to McDonald's. We had our Ping-Pong activity and no one showed up so me and my comp Elder Daines played some Ping-Pong.

Saturday and Sunday

We watched conference which was really awesome. One of my favorite talks was. "God Knows and Loves You"  By Elder Alan T. Phillips. I invite you guys to watch it.

Today we are headed to the far north of the island. Which is really beautiful. To go to a market where tourist's come a lot. Doing a hike. And going to the beach. Should be fun.

I took a picture of when the sky was really purple. Wish I had a better backdrop but still sick.

Anyways love you all

WEEK 4 - Yangmingshan National Park

 

(The pic above has Matthew Merritt in it on the far right who grew up just 3 houses away all our lives. He's my District Leader here.)

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes.

We didn't do too much this week.

I want to get out and serve the lord more.

We did a couple of member visits. We also taught two recent converts. You are supposed to re teach all the lessons with converts.

We went yo some fancy restaurant with a member couple. It was good. Kinda weird though. I didn't get a picture but I got a banana shake as well. It was good. As well as some cake.

This pday we went to a national park and did a hike. It was so cool. At the top of the peaks it's not so hot. Taiwan is pretty.

I want to see more of it.

We went to Costco and I bought a Costco card. 🤩

We then went to a qingke which is a member who pays for food. We went to an all you can eat pretty expensive place. So that was good

My Chinese is improving. I think. Even if it is by the smallest amount.

I'm excited to talk about our saviour more and more. As well as grow my relationship with him.

Taiwan is super cool. Almost been here a month already. Crazy!

Love you all

WEEK 3 in Taiwan

This week has been pretty fun.

Last p day we went to danshui and we went to McDonald's and met up with some other missionaries. After we went to some British fort which was pretty cool. We then went and got something called snowflake ice cream. It's so yummy. It's milk ice compacted then they put strawberry syrup on it. It's bussin. 

Tuesday I taught English class and it seemed to go pretty well. We talked about feelings and emotions. 

Friday we set up a ping-pong activity. It seemed to have went really well. I had a fun time playing with the people who showed up.

Saturday we went and had dinner with the bishop of beitou and his family.

I have still not seen much and eaten many foods but I hope I get to see more of Taiwan. I couldn't link any more photos sadly. 

So far this place is beautiful and I love it. My Chinese is getting better … I hope. But I'm excited to keep loving the cute people of Taiwan. I love them so much.

Love you all, max 余長老

WEEK 2 Taiwan

This week has been pretty good. 

I don't have much to say. Experiencing Taiwan has been super cool. I wish we would have gotten out more. I really want to just walk around and take Taiwan in.

We rode our bikes around. We even went to Costco. Yep they have Costco here.（the Beitou area) Riding back from Costco at night with some muffins and whole milk in the back of my bike was sick. The banana nut muffins are gas.

We lead an English discussion class. We had three people show up. It was rainy that day so pretty good I would say. We discussed about hobbies then we shared a spiritual message.

We also held a ping-pong activity. We had two boys show up and these guys seem cracked at Ping-Pong. Later this boy name J--- came with his mom. I played against him and this little guy is so cute. 😍 

We also went to a house with two members and then their whole family. We taught a boy named K--- and helped a girl named C--- with English. Then shared Book of Mormon story. The children stories.

We went to their place with a member we call Jellyfish. He seemed young but he wore a tag. Not sure if he was a missionary or wearing maybe a siblings tag. We picked him up at his place

That's about all we did. I hope to explore and do some actual street contact. I feel pretty useless. But I try my best. That's all that matters right?

AND I GOT SPIDER VERSE PEPSI BABY. check photos (　・ω・)
