WEEKLY UPDATE--There isn't snow here, but it's still really cold.

 It's Winter here in Taiwan and school just got out for Winter Break! Yeah, the school systems are different here. Very different. Anyway, this week was SUPER FUN! Here are some highlights:

 - We met with our investigator Londi who is from Swaziland, Africa and she speaks Zulu. The Zulu language is really cool. It's a clicking language!

 - We met some people from Jordan (if you don't know where that is, look it up!) who speak arabic and are coming to our english class because they want to practice their english. They are actually police office back in their hometown and they work with the CTU (human trafficking) . AND, they have mustaches! You dont see that too often here.
Group picture with Summer!


 - We had interviews with President JENSEN this past week. There are actually a lot of changes that are happening which makes it so we have Zone Conference every Transfer as well as President Interviews every transfer. AND surprise house inspections (some missionaries need it..) My mission president is the best!

 - We met with an investigator who has a fear of water...still trying to figure out how to help her with that...have her stand in the font and fill it up around her? Maybe.

 -We went to the temple TWICE this week! One for temple day and one to accompany our lovely Summer to do baptisms for the dead for the first time. (It's actually a funny story, I'll share it next week ;))

 - We had exchanges...getting to and from exchanges I feel are always longer than the actual exchange itself! (Especially when you take the wrong bus, get off at the wrong stop, get lost, and have to then walk the rest of the way...) It is all worth it though because Costco sells churros!

 As you can see, we have a lot of fun here. But don't be mistaken, we do a lot of work. This work IS FUN! SO FUN! I am so glad I made the decision to serve a mission. #BESTDECISIONEVER!
 I'll share some funny stories next week. I LOVE YOU ALL! I LOVE MY MISSION!
