So this past week was really really slow until Sunday....so I'll just spare you the details by saying not only one, but all of our 5 potentials fell through from a couple weeks ago. Also, our teaching pool dropped from 11 to 1 in the span of a week and a half due to moving investigators and not interested investigators. So yeah, it's been hard. We hardly ever find Chinese people, but we keep at it just in case there is a miracle.
Anyway, Sunday rolled around and Elder Taulepa from the Taiwan Taibei mission came home. He is our wards bishop's son. He is really solid and we hung out with him at church and talked chinese. It was pretty fun hahah. Anyway, he gives his homecoming talk this Sunday and I'm sure he'll be great. Elder Jensen up in the land of Taiwan, did you know him at all??
It was crazy how excited the whole ward was to see him and when we met him it just felt like we'd been friends for a while. Fast forward to sunday night, we called the former's from our area book. Honestly just looking for someone to teach. Found one who was interested and wanted to meet. So we invited now Brother Taulepa to come and help us teach. It was such an amazing lesson. Absolutely filled with the Spirit and so great to finally have a member to come with us. The support of members really makes the difference in the work. So I hope that this goes somewhere because Stephan is really sincere and wants to know about how the gospel can bless his life. It's been slow, but we just went to the temple and were reinvigorated and we have one solid prospect on the horizon! Hope you all have a great week!
