October 23, 2016 - Mountain Adventure

At the start of this week we went hiking.  I really enjoy taking pictures... I won't ever make it a profession but a hobby... maybe.  


The tea fields are amazing and so green. All of Taiwan is green and things don't go dormant like they do in Utah. There are some trees that lose their leaves at this time of year but their leaves grow back like a month later. My companion, Elder Fuller is one quarter Taiwanese. His parents both went to Taiwan on their missions so they both speak Mandarin but my companion didn't speak it until he came to Taiwan.

This week we had a mission tour. Elder Randy D. Funk of the Asia area presidency came and addressed us. It was very uplifting and much appreciated. I played the violin. I saw my some of my MTC friends like Elder Spach and Elder Warner. 

We have a member here in Taibao that calls everyday asking if we want to eat food because she owns a restaurant. We have now been probably 8 times since I have been in Taibao. We owe her big time. I will get a picture there with her. 

Our investigator Brother Wu now has a baptismal date for November 19th. His wife is a member and her brother is a senior missionary here in JiaYi so I am sure he will hit that date.  Keep praying for him. 

That is about it for this week.
Love you all! 

Elder Erwin
