Hey hey hey, I'm here, alive, and on :)

Peter and Smith both were baptized -- BEST Service I've ever had here in Taiwan, the ward brought it well and these two are so so so solid!!!

These two souls are amazing -- one being Elder Turner's and mine from one month ago, the other being taught since I was trained just over in Mingjian, added diversity to the night that made it even cooler!  I felt the Spirit so so so strong, especially when they shared their own testimonies!  I am so eternally grateful that God prepares souls, and then allows us to harvest the blessings for Him!  That's the best feeling ever.  Then it's our additional responsibility to make sure they don't leave!!!  Wahooooooey, let's doey!

Wow, you are awesome Steph, and I love you so much!!!  You are so great at serving those in need!!!  It's funny that at a place like BYU you are also worrying about less actives, those people here in Taiwan too -- hundreds of them usually in each unit!  Too Bad :)

PETER WILL BE IN CA, and he wants to go to church, but even cooler, he wants to visit Grandma and Gpa Brown!!!!!  Hahaha, he is so so so cool.  One of my best friends in Taiwan, really!!!

Ok, no Hun and his family this week, besides English Class.  I really need to just invite them to meet with us, because we haven''t yet, E Turner just told me that he is scared of a lot of missionaries, but I know he likes us!!!

I totally shared Mosiah 4:30 Mom, ah, so so so good.  Thanks!

Elder Washburn has an adopted older brother in his family...he played at BYU...now in Detroit, Michigan...yeaah!  ZIGGY is the older bro of my mission friend!!!

I went 39.2mph on my bike on Wednesday.  Whew.

I'm so so so glad Trevor your last Shoe went well, I got new shoes, haha-they're definitely 15$ shoes, but should be fine for 6 months, much better than my run down for two years shoes!!!
I LOVE that Story from President Sorensen, I love President and Sister Sorensen too!!!  How are they???!!!

So grateful for Kyle and The Missionaries ... we also take an 18 yr old boy to help us sometimes, he's got 4mths of military and then a mission call coming up!!!  I realize that's much like Trevor, wow!

Elder Turner's Dad had a car crash, and a huge surgery on his back on Friday, he was in our prayers and a fast yesterday...but we know now he is fine! 

I see so so so much good coming from wherever Brian is on the mission.  Recently there are only two companionships in our Zone hitting mission standards, but more importantly, hitting the real standard of True Converts making covenants and preparing for many more in the Temple!!!  Those indicators are just that: INDICATIONS that God is blessing righteous labors.  So in that regard I just want to shout out for Elder Otte and Roberts, cause they really are faithful, diligent, and obedient, and God is blessing them.  There's also another correlation between those companionships...nice job Spokane WA, and thank you LL Ward ;)
I was on the phone actually with them this morning, they had a great week and are now lacking some new baptismal goals, but as missionaries we are always trying to set more goals that we can harvest the blessings later, and we can only do that under God's direction AND God's timing!  SO I talked to them today about two families they're working with, and how they can lovingly teach and invite these families to Come unto Christ, I think they will get some goals this week!!!  WAhoooo!!!!!  And They want an old Pull up bar from our apt.  unfortunately we can't use it because our door frames are the wrong size ;(  But I said to get it from us they had to let me come over for exchanges...often.  They agreed :)  (I almost said they had to beat us in a pull up competition...but I didn't want to be unfair...to them ;)  Haha, just kidding, it's great to work near him, hope we have an exchange next week!!!  He keeps asking me and I want to so so so bad, but we have to help needy companionships first!

Love Drew
