<br /></div>
<div>
I can't believe it everyone. 18 months have come and gone and with the blink of an eye, I have gained experiences that have had an eternal impact on me. Of course my mission hasn't been smooth sailing, I mean whose is? But it has definitely called me to my knees everyday, calling on my Heavenly Father and repenting and changing. My heart has grown. My heart has been beaten. My heart has been hurt. My heart has been broken. My heart has turned to my Savior. A broken heart and a contrite spirit is what the Savior expects of us. And with our heart, He can do things beyond anything we can ever do ourselves. I can't even express my feelings right now. I have never relied so much on my Savior than I had in these short 18 months. He has been there every bit of the way. I have just been so blessed to be His hand in this great work.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know that this work is the work of Salvation. I can talk about my mission for the rest of my life, but no one will really know what this has meant to me. No one but my Savior and Heavenly Father. If there is but one soul that I know has come unto Christ, I know it's mine. And how great is my joy! (D&C 18:10-16). I spend this whole time learning about "inviting others to come unto Christ" when in reality, it's me that's truly coming unto Him this whole time. Bringing others along the way has just been an added blessing.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love the Beitou ward and all the other wards I have ever served in. They are truly my family. They have taught me what it's like to be a member missionary. They have taught me so much and have taken such good care of me. I know that my mommy can't even thank them enough.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know that this gospel is true. I know that Jesus Christ lives. I know that He is the Son of the Living God. I know that this work that I have been doing for the past 18 months of my life is the work of God bringing His children back to Him. I know that this work doesn't end here. I love my mission. I have loved every second of it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love you all and thank you so much for everything!</div>
<div>

Love,</div>

That's how you know reality hits. Being set apart as a missionary wasn't meant to be forever. It was only for a short period of my life. VERY SHORT time of my life but at the same time the best time of my life. My mission means everything to me and I wouldn't trade it for anything else. I love that everything that happens on missions have God's hand in it. The companions you are with, the place you serve, the people you serve, the people you meet, and so forth. I'm sorry I'm just talking right now but I just can't even express my feelings towards my time here in Taiwan. Next week Monday will be my last email and though I want it to be the BEST email ever, it probably won't be anything special. I'll probably just try to put my feelings into words but will be very unsuccessful at even trying.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I don't even know what to say! Haha. But I hope these pictures say a lot. I love you all! I'll come up with more next week. ;)</div>

<div>
My ponderize scripture this week is Alma 29:9. </div>
<div>
I know that which the Lord hath commanded me, and I glory in it. I do not glory of myself, but I glory in that which the Lord hath commanded me; yea, and this is my glory, that perhaps I may be an instrument in the hands of God to bring some soul to repentance; and this is my joy.</div>

陳輝木 got baptized! Sis. Guo and I knocked into him a few months ago. He doesn't look too happy here but trust me, he's happy. He was smiling the whole time. He was welcomed into the ward and he is willing to make this a part of his whole life. He also has 14 generations of family history on a scroll that he holds so dear to his heart. He jokingly said with us that he just wants to take that whole scroll to the temple. Haha. But we really need to help him do family history work so that he can actually do work for them!!!</div>

We went to the temple today! We also had interviews with President this week!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Chen Hui Mu passed his baptismal interview!!! He will be getting baptized this Saturday at 5pm. It was so funny because at church all he kept telling everyone was that he was getting baptized on Saturday at 5pm. It's been a long journey. We met him in July and at the time his father just passed away so he couldn't do anything until August. And since August, we've been visiting with him at his home, teaching him the gospel and watching him come unto Christ. He quit tea and smoking through the Lord's help. In his baptismal interview, he told Elder Boyce that he'd try to be baptized into Jehovah's Witness many times before but he couldn't because he couldn't give up smoking. But I know that it's because this is the Church of Christ that he was able to do it.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our investigator, Zheng Yi Ting, was a referral through the phone system!!! She will be getting baptized on 10/31! Two lessons ago she said she didn't know that God was her loving Heavenly Father. But after this past week, she shared an experience she had with the Book of Mormon, which answered her prayer and her challenge with her co-workers. The Spirit was there and she just cried as she shared this scripture with us. Immediately after that, I asked her the first baptismal interview question whether or not she knew that God was her loving Heavenly Father. She said with a firm answer, "yes, I believe." It was amazing to see how the Lord answers prayers!!! She is committed to her date and we are too!</div>

I hope everyone had a feast on Conference Weekend because I did!!! It was such a huge blessing to be able to receive so much revelation on how I want to end my mission in Taiwan and how I want to begin my life as a returned missionary.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For anyone who is wondering, I leave Taiwan on November 7. That's really weird that I'm telling everyone. Haha. But yes, that's my date I depart from my dear Taiwan. But until then...here are some of the miracles I've seen!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our investigator Chen Hui Mu quit smoking! We have been working so hard with him. He'll be getting his interview this Saturday. It was music to my ears when he said, "smoking 10, 5, or 1 sticks doesn't make a difference. I'm just going to quit smoking altogether!" It was amazing! The Atonement is REAL.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I don't know why but we've been getting a lot of food from people lately. At stores, the bosses would give us a free plate of food or something or our members would give us lots of food. I think they want me to go home so that my parents will have 'more to love' on me. Haha.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Next week is temple day! This means that I'll be emailing on Wednesday instead of Monday.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Love you all!!! Have a wonderful week! Remember to ponderize! I know that my mission has allowed me to be closer to the Spirit and to rely on the Lord in doing His work. I have needed to humble myself so much and learn many Christlike attributes. I know that as I continue to purify my heart, the Lord will help me be what He wants me to be. My baptism has meant everything to me and it's such a privilege to be able to help others come unto Christ. I invite you all to think about your baptism and what baptism means to you. We are all on that same path that started with baptism.</div>
<div>

Today, my companion, dearest Sis. Wright drops the AC filter from the third floor. So we go in some hair cutting store's back door to get to this place. All the people were like, NO YOU CAN'T! It's so dirty back there. But Sis. Wright man's it up and retrieves it. Success.</div>

And it may look like like I'm wearing the same clothes in all of the pictures. But don't worry, it's just because I took more pictures towards the end of the week.<br /><br />Well, everyone I am in my last transfer, which means I have 5 weeks left in Taiwan. Actually, after this email, I only have 4 more emails to send home. Oh my goodness! I will be "dying" in Beitou. Wooh! My new companion is Sis. Wright! Love her! This is going to be so great!!! We have a lot of plans and it's just going to be so awesome!<br /><br />Love you all! I am looking forward to General Conference this week. I have been waiting 6 months for it. :)<br /><br />I know that the Lord has so much in store these last few weeks in Taiwan and I promised Him and everyone else that I will work hard until the very end. And that I will gladly do.<br /><br />"Here am I..." -Isaiah 6:8<br /><br />How many times can we say that? When the Lord calls us to do something, will we be able to say, "Here am I, send me"? Here am I in Taiwan, on His errand doing His work. Here am I to give it my all.<br /><br />Love you all!!!<br />Sister Sagisi<div>

You know that bon fire/barbecue smell? The air in Taiwan pretty much smells like that. Why? Because it's mid-autumn festival. Yay! It was actually yesterday. It's really cool because families just get together and just barbecue. It's a day of families, which is so great.<div>
<br /></div>

We have a lot of pineapple pastries and it's a tradition around this time. I think I've eaten at least 10. Haha. And we still have more. I love Taiwan.</div>

I love Elder Richard G. Scott and I am so happy that he finally gets to be with his wife Jeanene. We weren't able to hear him speak this past conference but I looked back on his talk last October. He talked about tools that Heavenly Father has given us. We have prayer, scripture study, family home evening, and temple attendance. I love the promise blessing that he gives. He says that as we use these tools, the more Satan wants to target us but less is his ability to do so.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Have a wonderful week everyone! I am so excited for General Conference!!! ...next week. We have to wait for translations. BUT everyone else please enjoy conference and I don't want to be receiving any spoiler emails on who our apostles are or anything like that (Meihua...thanks, haha).</div>

This week...we knocked into the door of a pastor. But to be honest, he was one of the most humblest pastors ever. But in the end, he told us that he didn't want to talk "truth" with us because he was going to start spitting out Bible scriptures. But we left on a good note and even had a lesson with him at his door. It was really cool. At first, I was terrified, but for some reason, I knew that the Holy Ghost was there helping me and we testified of baptism and priesthood authority.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
On my mission I have come to love the war chapters in Alma! I love love love them. I'm sad that I'm almost through Alma. But I just want to share Alma 58:34-37.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
34 Now we do not know the cause that the government does not grant us more strength; neither do those men who came up unto us know why we have not received greater strength.<br /><br /> 35 Behold, we do not know but what ye are unsuccessful,and ye have drawn away the forces into that quarter of the land; if so, we do not desire to murmur.<br /><br /> 36 And if it is not so, behold, we fear that there is some faction in the government, that they do not send more men to our assistance; for we know that they are more numerous than that which they have sent.<br /><br /> 37 But, behold, it mattereth not—we trust God will deliver us, notwithstanding the weakness of our armies,yea, and deliver us out of the hands of our enemies.</div>
<div>
<br />I just want to say that Helaman and his army were in a life or death situation. They were struggling so badly because of their provisions. But they didn't complain. It "mattereth not" to them. Sometimes, do we complain because of the little things that happen or do we trust in the Lord and know that He will deliver us. I love what we learn from these war chapters and I've been able to study them more in depth lately.<br /><br />We're starting to set baptismal dates with investigators for when I'm not going to be here! So crazy! I remember when Meihua (Sis. Roy) told me that she was setting dates for after she leaves. I was like, I wonder what that feels like, haha. Now I know.<br /></div>
<div>
I hope everyone has a beautiful and wonderful week! We have transfer meeting this Friday. I'm pretty sure I'll be staying. I really hope I'll be staying. Moving on your last transfer doesn't sound too appealing. But the Lord's will be done. But...I'm pretty sure I'm staying. That means my companion, Sis. Guo is most likely going to move. I love her so much! She's been like a sister to me. She is like a sister to me.</div>

We were knocking and went up to the 6th floor. When we looked out the window, we just saw one of the most beautiful views of Beitou 北投. It reminds me so much of Kalihi Valley. It reminds me so much of Hawaii. We also went hiking this week. It was part of our Outdoor Zone Conference. We had training while hiking. It was one of the many many highlights of my mission! The hikes here in Taiwan are very very similar to Hawaii. :)<div>

<div>
I know that Heavenly Father knows each one of us. He knows everything that we're going through. He knows our needs at this very moment. Last night after visiting with an less active, we had plans to go visit Sis. Lita. We originally wanted to visit her 2 hours earlier but we had to visit someone else. Well, we were getting ready on our bike and I just happened to wave at a lady and her son. When Sis. Guo saw the lady, she noticed she was a former investigator. We ended up sharing a scripture with her. That took about 10 minutes of our time but that's okay because we still ended up visiting Sis. Lita. As we were knocking on her door for about 5 minutes, no one came. But then she pulls up on her moped next to us and she's like, "no one is home!" Then she excitedly tells us, "I'm getting baptized this Saturday!" If we had visited her a little earlier or even 2 hours earlier like we had planned, we would not have been able to find her. She also told us that her phone isn't working so we definitely wouldn't have been able to get in contact with her because she works all throughout the week.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I cried. I just couldn't help but to think how the Lord's hand was in every step of the way. From the time I met her friend at the temple and told her that I was serving here in Beitou, until now. This is a story that I'll remember for the rest of my life. And I'll tell it over and over again. I hope that everyone will have the opportunity to hear the story from beginning to end sometime. :)</div>

Have a wonderful week everyone! I know I will. I'm on the Lord's errand.</div>

The bus. Probably the coolest people ever. Our zone is super talented. On the bus ride back, we were just beat boxing, singing, and telling stories the whole way through. The best part was hearing stories from Pres. and Sis. Jergensen. The simple things in life are the best things in life. It just felt like a family road trip.</div>

This week we were in a farther part of our area and we went finding. When we left an apartment building, there was this really awful smell. Guess what it was! Yep! Stinky tofu. As we walked towards it, it started to smell good. We found some really good smelling stinky tofu. Is that an oxymoron? Haha. I don't even know anymore. But I needed to buy some. It tasted so good too. The man that was selling it had been selling it from his truck for 26 years. So yes, it was legit. But because of that stinky tofu, we ran into a less active around the corner. It was a stinky tofu miracle!!!<div>

I went to Jilong 基隆 for exchanges this week with Sis. Lindsay! Jilong is like the San Francisco of Taiwan! I absolutely fell in love with it. You get off the bus and you just smell sea water. It's a harbor and it just reminded me of home. :)<div>

Miracle Duan DX! We had found him through door knocking and when we met with him for the first time, he told us that he considers himself an Atheist. But lately he's been feeling that there must be a higher power out there somewhere. He didn't know where and he didn't know what it was, but he wanted to know. His closing prayer just brought tears to my eyes. It was his first prayer and it was one of the most sincere prayers I had ever heard. He asked God to give him a sign, any sign to let him know that he exists. He told God how he wasn't expecting to meet us but he did and he feels like it really was His plan. It just brought tears to my eyes hearing this man's prayer and his plead to God. He committed to doing what he needed to do to receive his answer such as reading the Book of Mormon, praying, and coming to church next week. Our job as missionaries now is to help him to recognize his answer from God.<div>

This is Bro.Yi 易天宗. We knocked on his door 2 weeks ago and he's the most golden investigator ever! We'll finish teaching him the lessons tomorrow but he'll be moving to an island off the coast of Taiwan on Thursday. Our mission president said that because it's not in our mission, we can't go see him get baptized. This island is called Jingmen (I have no idea how to spell it) and they don't even have a branch there. It's so small that members just meet in a member's home for church. But his faith is so strong! When his wife retires in 2 years, they'll be moving to California to be with his sons, so I'll see him soon!</div>

I made it back from the Tsunami without a scratch! Haha. But I'm so exhausted though. I feel like I just served the extra 6 months had I served 2 years like elders do.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I wish I could share all the many miracles that had happened while in Zhunan. At first I wondered why I was sent to go contacting from 11am-9pm for 3 days straight in Zhunan. I wondered why they sent an old amah missionary, but coming back, I realized why. The tsunami changed my life forever.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
To start, here was what the tsunami brought for the Zhunan Zone. Just a reminder, this was 3 days.<br />
106 New investigators.<br />
34 of them have baptismal dates.<br />
227 street lessons.<br />
153 Book of Mormons placed.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Lord's hand was there in Zhunan and I know that we missionaries didn't do anything. I can't even express all of the amazing things I had learned had I not been blessed to participate in it. Throughout the whole tsunami, my companion and I, Sis. Beeston just kept talking about all the things we were learning on/because of the tsunami. I want to share that I know the tsunami was a more a benefit to me than I was to the tsunami because of all the things that I had gained and learned.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I want to share a funny story. I hope you get a laugh out of it.<br />
On Wednesday Sis. Beeston and I decided to go to a place that the Zhunan sisters would probably have no time to go to because of the location of it. We planned our day around that area and Sis. Beeston asked if we should come back to the city for dinner. Silly me...I told her, "oh not to worry! I'm sure we'll find a convenience store and we can just buy our dinner there." Haha. Boy was I wrong. When dinner came, we asked someone on the side of the road where we could go to get dinner. They said the nearest convenience store was 15 minutes away but there was a noodle place 3 minutes away. It looked safe, so we had dinner there. But wow, we were literally in the middle of nowhere. But we found the person the Lord needed us to find in the middle of nowhere.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Lord's hand is everywhere. You just have to be able to recognize it. I hope everyone will have a wonderful week and be able to recognize the Lord's hand more clearly in your lives.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Love,<br />
Sis. Sagisi<br />

This is a famous actress. She does stage performance and musical theater. From what my companion, Sis. Guo, described, her performances are more than $100 American$ per ticket. We found her in a small little vegetarian place. It was so funny because Sis. Guo was too shy to ask her. She said that actors and actresses here don't where any bright colors or makeup out in public because they need to be able to distinguish who they are on stage and off stage. We still don't know her name. Haha. Sis. Guo forgot it.</div>

Can you guess why? Yes, that's right. I cleaned and I cooked! There was enough time in the day to clean and cook. Is cleaning a hobby? If so, it's my hobby. We mopped and scrubbed and wiped, etc. Then I had an extra two hours and I remembered we had a sweet potato that hadn't been cooked yet. So I made some candied sweet potato. Then my companion, Sis. Guo gave me the sweetest compliment. She was like, "夏姐妹!妳知道嗎?!" "Sis. Sagisi this food is what you give to someone to tell them 'I love you!'" She just kept saying how good it was and how she's never had anything like it and that it's the best thing she's ever eaten. Hahaha. And then today she told me that the sweet potato from last week has kept her happy this whole week. Haha. I love my companion. I'm so glad that I can cook and clean when I have time...I think that's mother status but they call me "Mama Sagisi" here in the mission so it's all good.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I was trying to describe this mango jelly thing we were eating and I said that it tasted very "acidy." Then Elder Boyce in my district tells me that it's "acidic." Then I look at him and say, "oh, you're right." I don't think I can speak English anymore.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week there's a TSUNAMI! It's been a year since we last had one. And before anyone freaks out, let me just explain what it is. It is when our Mission President sends a group of missionaries down to a specific area in our mission and goes finding there for 4 days. It will help the missionaries who are serving there to increase their pool of investigators and thus have more baptisms!!! We'll be reaping for 4 days straight. Even though it's not my specific area, I know that this is the Lord's work and we're all on #TeamJesus.This time it will be in Zhunan. Last year it was in Taidong. And I have this privilege to go! We'll be leaving today and come back to my area on Friday night. I'm pumped and I'm so excited to go finding!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I don't know if I've said this already but all I can say is that the enabling power of the Atonement is REAL! I have so much more energy in my life and I know it's all because of the Atonement!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love you all! Have a wonderful week!<div>
Love,<div>
Sister Sagisi<br />

<br /></div>
<div>
On the MRT, I saw this girl's bag and it was from Benefit Cosmetics. You can always count on Benefit. I love that make-up line. Anywhoos, it said, "Laughter is the best cosmetic, so wear it." I decided to take it and add a little more 'Sis. Sagisi' to it and changed it to "smile." So don't forget to smile everyday!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you think about miracles that occur everyday, you can't help but to think about how amazing our Heavenly Father is. He is a God of miracles. And if you think about the miracle that is happening at that very moment, there are a billion other miracles happening in the world at that very moment as well. There are more than 85,000 missionaries in the world right now. We missionaries are seeing miracles every single day. If you think about the miracles that occur not only in the lives of missionaries but of the people that we come in contact with, our God loves everyone! He seriously has a plan for everything. He has a grand scheme that we all don't understand. Our little path crosses the path of someone else and later on down the line, perhaps years later, we find out why our paths crossed. And if you think of the millions of paths that are being drawn each day, Heavenly Father seriously knows everything that goes on in the world.</div>

Sis. Ma!!! A year ago she was on her mission and she served in SLC Temple Square. A year ago I was in the area where her mom and cousin lived. I took a picture with her mom and cousin and emailed her. She replied and we've kept in occasional contact through email. In February she had gotten back and I saw her just a few days after at the temple. It was like the coolest meeting! It actually felt more like a reunion. Each time we see each other, it just feels like we're already just really good friends. I love my mission and all the friendships I've made!</div>

There was a Mexican dancing group who came to Taiwan and they are all members. This is Hermana Juarez! She served in Chile and just got back from her mission 5 months ago. Sad to say that I don't know my Spanish anymore. I can totally understand but I can't speak for my life! (Yes, she carries her missionary tag with her everywhere in her bag.) She is a missionary by heart!</div>

Day) and so I was OK. ;)<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week we woke up to no electricity and the winds were just so strong. It was so crazy!!! It was apparently the biggest typhoon to hit Taiwan in 20 years. Pres. Uchtdorf called our Mission President Saturday morning, to ensure that all the missionaries were safe. I just know that all the missionaries around the world are loved by our First Presidency. I also know that the Lord protects His missionaries.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We walked outside after the storm and it was just a disaster. There were fallen trees everywhere. I think the most interesting thing was that even the biggest trees fell. But as we went running this morning, I found that the tiniest trees that were held up by a tripod looking thing (they had a support around them) withstood the typhoon. That applies to all of us. We can have the biggest testimonies (or so we think) and share it with everyone, but if it's not rooted and supported, it will surely fall. Helaman 5:12. :)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The miracle of it all was our baptism after the typhoon. On Sunday, the typhoon had already passed and we had already scheduled our baptism for that day. Chen Wen Zhong DX got baptized! We got to the chapel just to find that our chapel had no water. Our bishop coordinated with Danshui to move our baptism there at that chapel. They were totally willing to let us go over.. But their water pressure was really low so they were going to confirm with us whether or not the font would fill in time. After Sunday School hour we found that the water at our chapel was working again! We started to fill the font. When we went back down after church ended, we found that the font water was dirty. It was so crazy! Haha. And then the water turned off again. But Chen DX didn't mind one bit! We told him that it was like how Jesus was baptized in the river Jordan. Well, all I have to say is that the Lord provided they way and we just had sufficient faith. The Lord gave us the water we needed to fill the font then afterwards turned the water off again. I am so grateful that He allowed Chen DX to make a covenant with God that day!</div>

I hope that every can always remember that we must turn our lives over to Christ. That was our theme at Mission Leadership Council this past week. I was truly inspired and Im so grateful for our mission president, President Jergensen and his wife, Sis. Jergensen. They made us Mexican food for lunch. SO Good! I miss it so much. Haha.</div>
<div>

This week there was a random thunderstorm. It was so random. And we were soaked in like 10 seconds. But then the sun came out. I think my favorite times to be outside is right after a storm. It smells like rain but the rain already passed and it just feels like a fresh start. Then the sun is shining so bright and the sky is blue. Thats how I feel each Sunday when we go to church and partake of the Sacrament. I have learned to love the Sabbath so much more because of my mission.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In about 4 days I will officially have 3 months left. I. Cant. Believe. It. I love my mission.</div>
<div>

Love you all!</div>

As I was unlocking my bike getting ready to leave, I saw a blind man with a walking stick. He attempted to cross the road. As he did, he stuck out his walking stick straight in front of him. I saw that as he took his first few steps into the road with many cars, a man comes, grabs his arm and safely takes him to the other side of the road. I saw that when the blind man felt the man next to him, I could see that the blind man was suddenly comforted, put his stick down and held on to the man. After dropping him off, the man who helped him went back across the street and continued to walk in the opposite direction. I'm not too sure if anyone else saw what just happened in a matter of probably 30 seconds, but I did and the Lord did. It was so touching and I'm so grateful I was able to witness this tender act of service. Despite some of the things that happen, this world is truly full of wonderful people.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We found a miracle LA this week! The Lord seriously has a plan for everyone. After lunch we had some things that our landlord suddenly need to fix so we couldn't move forward with our original plan we had. After our landlord left, we only had about 30 minutes of finding before we needed to head back to the MRT to exchange back. I suddenly felt that we shouldn't go with our original plan. As we headed to our backup plan, while biking up there, I had this weird feeling to stop by the nearby park. As we parked our bikes, I realized that it was a really "not smart" idea because there was seriously no one at the park. Haha. But we said another prayer and went to work. I asked Sis. Luo if we could talk to a man and his two toddlers. We gave them an English tract. He said he attended before he was married and had kids. When we started to talk about families, we asked if we could pray with him. He then said that he was actually baptized in our church before. WHAT?! We ended up having a lesson and finding out why we left. We have a return appointment with him this week Saturday! The Spirit led us to find him and even though it seemed like a really weird thought at first, we later knew why the landlord came, why we decided not to go with our original plan, and why we had to go to the empty part instead.</div>
<div>

Oh my goodness! The Lord is so merciful! At the temple on Wednesday, we met some Filipino sisters! They did an English session with us. They are Sister Emma and Sis. Naty. They asked us where we were serving and I said Beitou. They told us that that's where they first met the missionaries 4 years ago and were taught in Beitou. In fact, it was a Filipino elder who knocked on their door and helped teach them the gospel. Sis. Naty gave me a referral of her friend, Sis. Lita who was also taught with her but never got baptized. The next day, Sis. Lita calls Sis. Naty out of the blue after not having been in contact for 4 years. Sis. Naty was so confused and asked if the missionaries had visited her. She said no. But the next day after that, we ended up visiting her. (I had no idea of the phone call the night before). But we met Sis. Lita and asked why she hadn't been baptized yet. We also shared more about the message of the Restoration. I called Sis. Naty later that night to tell her that we visited Sis. Lita and she told me about the previous night. We visited again on Sunday along with Sis. Naty and other Filipino members and we set a baptismal date with Sis. Lita. She is ready to learn again. Perhaps this is a reason why I came to Beitou. Perhaps this is a reason why we were assigned to the temple that Wednesday and not some other Wednesday. Perhaps this is the time Sis. Lita is ready to be baptized. It was a miracle.</div>

I love this work! I love being a part of it. Every second of everyday is a miracle to me.</div>

<div>
Lately, Pday just comes without me even knowing. I feel like Pday waits for me. I no longer wait for Pday.</div>

I like getting big, square-ish letters from my district leader. It usually means it's a wedding announcement! Haha. I like guessing who it's from and who's getting married. My trainer, Sis. Koch just got married last month. And this month I got an announcement from Melanie Serrao. She'll be getting married in August. So crazy how fast time flies! So happy for her!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As I'm getting older in the mission, I can really feel how I'm becoming the missionary the Lord expects of me. This week I really felt the Spirit in every phase of the work. 1) Where to go (we were led to a recent convert in a park full of old people). 2) What to do (I didn't know how to address the pack of cigarettes in his pocket but with boldness and the Spirit, I was able to ask). 3) And what to say (I didn't want him to feel like we would judge him or embarrass him but through the Spirit, he felt the Lord's love for him as we talked about the Atonement). The Spirit is with us in Beitou. The Lord is directing His work here. I am so grateful to be a part of it!</div>

This might be helpful for missionaries who have gotten their call and are wondering what to pack. Haha.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1) Clothes: Taiwan has a BUNCH of really cheap clothes. I wish I hadn't brought so much of my own clothes. I would've just brought maybe 5 skirts and bought more skirts here in Taiwan (enough for the MTC). Then I wouldn't have so much clothes to carry around. It also gets pretty cold here in the winter. It doesn't snow but because of the humidity, it feels like it should start snowing, especially when you've spent the summer in Taiwan and it suddenly becomes winter. I had to use scarves, gloves, leggings, and boots during the winter. And again, you can buy all those things here.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2) Shoes: I would've just brought a pair of running shoes and missionary shoes and bought more shoes here as well. The shoes are so cute and pretty cheap here.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3) Rain gear: Taiwan has all the rain gear you need.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So last p-day, my companion and I go to the market. We find a Taiwanese burrito stand. It's called 'rum4bing3' I believe. And Guo JM starts ordering and says all these things. I am next and whatever she ordered sounded really good. So I just say that I want the same thing... When I took a bite into my rumbing, I realized that I made a huge mistake. She asked for wasabi in hers...And I really dislike wasabi. After I'm about halfway through my rumbing, I tell my companion what happens and she just feels so bad. Lol. On the flipside, I'm the one laughing at myself. We laugh about afterwards and she says that she wants to buy me another. However, I learned that because my companion is a native, I should ask what she ordered before I just say, "Oh, make that 2!"</div>
<div>

Last week Friday we had a typhoon. Last week Friday we went proselyting in the typhoon. We got news that we were supposed to stay indoors all day. Then an hour later we got news that we were free to go out. It was awesome! We saw so many miracles! It was really windy and it was raining like crazy. But the Lord watched over us and blessed us with so many miracles that day!</div>

So at BYU in the Wilkinson Center, there would often be people playing John Schmidt on the piano. I know that it sounded so good but I didn't know how intense it was to play his music. Well, last night, my life was made complete (haha). One of our ward members played one of his songs for us. And anyone who uses their forearm to hit the keys on the piano is AMAZING! I have so much more respect for the people who plan John Schmidt's songs in the WILK now. I think when I go back to BYU, I'm going to start clapping for those who play John Schmidt even though people look at my weirdly.</div>

Here in the mission, we get this letter towards the end of our missions. We call it "the Death Letter." It tells you that they are about to start ordering our plane tickets and all that and it tells us our departure date. I'm scheduled to depart Saturday, November 7. Oh my goodness!!! That's less than 4 months away. It's time to start sprinting to the finish line!!! Here we go!!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Love you all! Have an amazing week!!!</div>
<div>
Love,</div>

This week, my companion and I cried for America. Thanks to Meihua I heard about the Supreme Court Justices decision on same-sex marriage and I told my companion about it. We just cried together. Shes not even American and she cried. We love this gospel and the happiness and truth that it gives us and we just want to share that with everyone.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So many things happened this week. I wish I had more time to type them all out. But Ill share them all during the course of my lifetime.</div>

Well while on exchanges with Sis. Johnson, we found a Christian woman named Shao JM. There was a gate that hindered our ability to ring her doorbell. As I tried to open her gate, I realized it had two locks. I said out loud, maybe the Lord doesnt want us to come here. Right after I said that, she comes out and asks who we were. After finding out that she was a Christian, we asked if we could say a prayer with her. After the prayer, she asks if we want to come in! President Jergensen, she felt the Spirit and invited us in! Thank you for reminding us of the power of prayer at MLC!!!! Okay, anyways, we enter in her home and share the #BecauseHeLives video. She starts tearing. Afterwards, her niece and her nieces family come over and she tells all of them to listen to the missionaries. They all gather around the table and we start teaching the message of the Restoration. We give them Books of Mormon and Shao JM says, Wow, Ive been hoping for scriptures. It was so crazy! The next Sunday Shao JM comes to church. And she walked up that hill to our chapel! She is truly a miracle and I cant wait to keep helping her progress towards baptism!</div>
<div>

Have a wonderful week everyone! Love you all!</div>

Funny story, one of my friends from my freshman ward, Victoria Fisher married a man named Tyson Jergensen. I knew Tyson because he worked for SOAR as one of the ACT subject teachers so I saw him a lot as a SOAR counselor. Turns out that Pres. Jergensen is his dad. This world probably doesnt get any smaller. haha. I love our mission president and his wife!!!</div>

We go on so many exchanges with sisters because we are assigned to 8 companionships in two zones that I hardly get to really really know our area. Haha.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So our chapel is on top of a hill. It's really close to our house. But--it's on top of a hill! We've had promptings to go near that area several times this week and we have found miracles galore! I used to have the mindset of, "oh but it's so close to the chapel. Missionaries have probably knocked those houses a thousands times before." But the Lord proved me wrong. We met a Xu JM. She is a single lady in her 60s taking care of her 90 year old dad. We had a lesson with her and re-invited her to English class because she used to attend before. She actually really loves missionaries. She's gone hiking with them before but never took any of the gospel lessons nor had she been given a Book of Mormon. Of course we gave one to her and invited her to read the beginning. When she came to English class the next day, she had already read the intro to the Book of Mormon and knew the background of the Book of Mormon so well!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Another lady is Tang JM. We didn't know why we were led to a barren road at 12:30 pm in the hot afternoon, aka nap/lunch time. We ended up finding Tang JM, a former investigator from about 30 years ago. She attended church and English class at Jin Hua when she was in college. Now she's about 60 years old. So crazy! We ended up having a lesson with her as well. We wondered why the Lord wanted us to meet with her even though she thought that 'now' still wasn't her 'time.' But I know that the Lord gave her a perfect reminder of His love towards her.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lastly is Zhen JM. She literally lives next door to the chapel. We ended up having a lesson with her and she said she will come to church next Sunday. She said that right now her goal is to look for a husband. She's in her 30's and she's afraid to wait too long to get married. It was the perfect lead into eternal families!</div>

We have one room with AC in our apartment. Our beds is not in that room. After all, we're only in bed for 8 hours to sleep. It's gotten to the point where even though we have a fan in that room, the fan is just blowing hot air. This is what we've resorted to. One of the best decisions ever!</div>

I don't think words can describe my feelings for President and Sister Day. They have impacted my life more than I can even explain. I know that one of the many reasons that I was called to the Taiwan Taipei Mission was to learn from these two amazing disciples of Christ. Every training, every interview, every moment that I've had with them has been so special. I've felt their love that they express to each of their missionaries. All I'm saying is that I'm going to Tennessee to visit them and eat Sister Day's cookies! ;)<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week was Dragon Boat festival. We've even a lot of 'zongzi.' It's rice wrapped in leaves and it's sooo good! I don't think I'll ever get tired of them. I'll send a picture next week. :)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week we went looking for a less active. We forgot the ward list a the bikes and I had to go off of memory. Haha. But the Lord led us to this woman who told us that she's always wanted her children to believe in Christ, even though she can't because she was Buddhist. It was a miracle!!! We're meeting with her again and sharing more of the gospel with her!!!</div>

I feel like I just left the MTC! Still!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week, one of our sister missionaries in my zones received a text message in Spanish. They couldn't read it and asked me if I could read it. Boy, was I glad that I read it and translated it for them. They had originally planned to meet with that investigator that night but after I read it, I think they made other plans. It was something like this in Spanish, "I was just wondering do you have a boyfriend? How old are you?" I AM SO GRATEFUL I learned Spanish in high school. The Lord needed me for this moment! Haha.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Nothing is sweeter than a song'd hong dou bing! (This is a really good Taiwanese cake that is filled with custard or red bean, etc). I gotta tell you this miracle. Well we on exchanges and were English Boarding and I noticed this man sitting down on the side eating a hong dou bing. I was like, "isn't that so good? I love that store's hong dou bing!" Then he goes, "here have some. I can't eat it all." He gives me and Sister Williams 4 hong dou bings. I think the Lord was just being so merciful. He wasn't interested in listening to the gospel because he was a Buddhist. At first we couldn't accept but he persisted. We thanked him a million times and he was like "no, really. No problem." As we were leaving, the Spirit just told me that I needed to share my gratitude with him. So I shared Mosiah 2:17. "And behold, I tell you these things that ye may learn wisdom ; that ye may learn that when ye are in the service of your fellow beings ye are only in the service of your God." At first he said that he didn't understand. Then I explained what it meant to serve others. In my mind, I didn't even need to have a lesson with him. I just wanted to share what I knew service was and that this man was only serving God. Seed planted! (see picture below)</div>

On Sunday, one of the RC's in our ward gave a talk. She shared the experience she had on Saturday when we ate lunch with her and shared a small lesson with her. She talked about how we were angels that she needed at this time in her life. But first I want to share what happened in that lesson. We were talking about love and love for God. Sister Williams shared a scripture that we had planned to share and expounded on that scripture. Then instead of sharing the scripture that I had planned to share, the Spirit told me to share a different scripture. I shared Mosiah 7:48. She ended up sharing that same scripture in her talk on Sunday. Lately, I've really been feeling the Spirit guiding me in every phase of this work. It's such an amazing feeling when you know that it's not me doing anything but the Spirit.</div>

<br />1.<br />We went door knocking on Saturday after dinner with a member. After knocking for a while, we found a Chen DX. While talking with him he had to answer a call and stepped away. During that time, I noticed a sticker on his cabinet. Guess what sticker it was! It was the "no other success can compensate for failure in the home" sticker. I pointed it out to Guo JM and we were mind blown. After he came back, we inquired about it. He said that he ran into some elders many years ago on the street and they gave him that sticker and he came to church once. He said that because of work he was never able to go back. We were harvesting a seed!!! We had a lesson with him, gave him a Book of Mormon, we exchanged numbers, and he committed to coming to church the next week.</div>
<div>
<br />2.<br />Another miracle was going knocking yesterday. We found a Christian brother and right as he was about to hang up on us, I told him that we had a special book that we wanted to share with him that was scripture. He told us that we could leave it in his mail box. I told him that we wanted to give it to him personally. You know what he said? "Okay, come on up" and he opened the apartment door for us. We had a lesson with him, gave him the Book of Mormon, and he also committed to coming to church next week. He said that he went to our church once before, too.</div>
<div>
<br />3.<br />At church yesterday, there was a girl named Olivia who came to church for the first time. She said that she looked it up online for the church address and wanted to come. While talking to her during Relief Society, she asked about the way we pray. I showed her the Restoration pamphlet and she said, "wait, I have one of those. Missionaries gave it to me about 6 months ago. I tried calling the phone number on the back and it didn't work." She showed me the number because she had it saved on her phone. And it was our old cell phone number before we changed the SIM card 3 weeks ago! I asked her why she was interested in our church. She explained how her dad was Buddhist and that she practiced it for a while but never really found that it was what she wanted. She said she went to some activity where there were a bunch of Christians and that's when she realized that that's what she wanted.</div>
<div>
<br />These people have all had contact with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints before. I don't know if now is the time that we will reap these seeds that were planted, but I do know that God has a plan for everyone. I LOVE (T)HIS WORK.</div>

I only remember getting up once and that was because my companion was complaining. Then I fell back asleep. When the alarm went off this morning, Sis. Guo told me what happened and she looked SO TIRED. I don't think she had a very good sleep last night. I just laughed so hard and I'm still laughing because I slept through it all.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Last last week, we had a special experience. We went door knocking and found this one guy. When we told him we were missionaries he just started acting so weird. When we prayed with him, he turned his back on us as we said the prayer. When we invited him to pray, we told him we could turn our backs too so that he didn't have to feel so weird. After about 10 seconds the door slams right behind us. It was the weirdest thing. Then after going back on the street, we find the Book of Mormon on the ground. We realized that he had tossed it from the balcony of the 5th floor. The amazing this was that it was still in good condition! No dents or anything. I love my companion so much! We were able to laugh about it (not the fact that he threw the Book of Mormon) but the fact that it had 'floated' down the middle of the street! We were able to give that same Book of Mormon away to a father and his son later that day.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I wish you all could meet my companion! We are so alike in so many ways and she is just soo funny! We spend half our time laughing. The other day, I was holding on to the rail in the MRT and she goes, "Woah, you are so strong. I'm sure if any man messes with us, you can protect us." She saw my biceps (my non-existent biceps) and we just start laughing.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Elder L. Tom Perry has said: <i>“The gospel is centered on the Atonement of our Lord and Savior. The Atonement provides the power to wash away sins, to heal, and to grant eternal life. All the imponderable blessings of the Atonement can be given only to those who live the principles and receive the ordinances of the gospel—faith in Jesus Christ, repentance, baptism, receiving the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end. Our great missionary message to the world is that all mankind is invited to be rescued and to enter the fold of the Good Shepherd, even Jesus Christ.”</i></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Elder Perry adds the following: <i>“Our missionary message is strengthened by the knowledge of the Restoration. We know that God speaks to His prophets today, just as He did anciently. We also know that His gospel is administered with the power and authority of the restored priesthood. No other message has such great eternal significance to everyone living on the earth today. All of us need to teach this message to others with power and conviction. It is the still, small voice of the Holy Ghost that testifies through us of the miracle of the Restoration, but first we must open our mouths and testify. We must warn our neighbors.”</i></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We are not robots. The Lord has called each of us out here to preach His gospel. He needs our individual testimonies. He needs our individual minds and our spirit. He needs us to preach through the Holy Ghost.</div>

It's so crazy! I've been in the 桃园 (Taoyuan) zone since birth (except for those 3 weeks that I was in Taibei). Then after those 3 weeks in Taibei, I moved to Pingzhen and Zhongli and stayed there for 7 months (5 transfers). At first I was so sad to leave the area. I cried as I wrote in my journal after getting the call that I was moving. It's not something that you can prepare for. I started telling the people there that there might be a possibility of me moving but I wasn't sure. And even after that, when I was finally told I was moving, I just cried. My family is there. I love the people there soo much. I guess it was just a taste of what it would be like leaving Taiwan. Then I woke up the next day and I just had a comforting feeling that everything was going to be ok. The future is bright.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At transfer meeting, we got our areas and our new companions and guess who my companion is!!! Her name is 郭姐妹(Sister Guo) and she is a 本地人 (native). We are serving in 北投, which is where my mother, Sister Koch died (it's where she ended her mission before she went home)! We are the Sister Training Leaders over 2 zones, the Taibei East and Taibei South zones. We are assigned to 8 sister companionships. And my daughter, Sister Akita, and granddaughter, Sister Komatsu, and MTC buddy, Sister Van Tonder are!!!! Maybe I messed up training Sister Akita so the Lord wanted<div>
me to come to where she is and make amends... haha. <div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm nervous but I'm excited. Sister Guo is an amazing companion! Chinese 24/7 is the best!!!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know this work is true because it's HIS WORK. At Stake Conference yesterday for the Taibei East Zone, the Stake Primary Choir sang. It was a choir of angels. They sang "I know that My Savior Loves Me" and it was a humbling reminder of the love Christ has for each of us. It brought tears to my eyes as they sang of truth.<div>

Haha. I feel like I just emailed! I think it's because this week just went by so quickly after the temple.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
There has been many miracles here in Pingzhen. I know that the Lord just puts people in our path and that as we open our mouths to talk with everyone, we take part in declaring His gospel. We have seen miracles from opening our mouths. Why is opening our mouths so powerful? To me, I think it's because it allows others to know who we are and that there is power in word. That is something that I've been learning lately. There truly is power in word and as authorized servants of God, we must open our mouths. I've been reading in the book of "Acts" of the Apostles through the Holy Spirit, I'v been learning so much from ancient missionaries such as Paul and Steven. It's the Spirit that does the work but we really have to open our mouths.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love you all! Have a wonderful week! Transfers are this week! I'm not too sure what will happen but I'm ready for anything. :) It's all for the Lord.<div>
