Fun Taiwan fact, there are a mean amount of stray dogs here, especially in the more rural areas. My companion will not let them pass without giving them a good patty-pat and letting them know that they are "very good boys"-so sweet, but also, not cleansauce😆
Besides the stray animals, it's been nice getting to know the people in this area too haha! We ran into a lot of people who are really humble and a lot who want to learn english so bad so you already know our Wednsday English group is BOPPING😆 it's been so fun to make relationships with and learn a lot from them too. OH also this week we're prepping for a Halloween party (SPOOPY season already??) so we went to a huge park and made mad huge soap bubbles to promote it! Hoping it'll bring the community a little closer and help us meet more people😊
This week a girl had a COOL BEANS baptism. Our baptismal font in 頭份 is a little different from the ones we've seen before. Because this wards church is on the second floor of a building, we used a plastic assembled front that we need to lie a tarp in and fill it up with hot and cold hoses. So cool and so special! This Sunday we also got the chance to hear from Elder Dale Renlund, and his take on how to move on from here. He also shared with all the missions in Asia!
To finish up, I want to share about the Holy Spirit. I'm grateful to have had His influence in my life, but it wasn't until I had to rely on Him that I found how vital He really is. The last few weeks I've felt a confidence in lessons and on the street that is so new and so good! Don't get me wrong, this doesn't make contacting easy, but we're starting to see a change in the people we meet. The Holy Spirit gives me confidence. He gives me the courage needed to face each day and through God's guidance, we can have confidence that our future is a good one.
Love you!蘇姐妹
