Crazy week

I'll miss this fun friend

I got kicked out of Taidong! But got sent to Tianmu. Great place indeed. AND I am serving with Elder Briggs Jensen from Lehi. I'm breaking him, but he's such an awesome missionary already. We're so excited to be with each other.

Leaving Taidong and all the people down there was rough. I already can't wait to go back. The Lord blessed me by sending me here though. It's such an awesome place. My ward in Long-Tan had an average of 35 people at church. Taidong was about 60. We had over 100 people at church on Sunday. The chapel even had benches, and deacons passing the sacrament. It was such a cool sight to see, and kind of opened my sights a little bit to how much potential this island has. Great people.

Saying goodbye to the Zone

Our investigators here are great. They have a common struggle with all other investigators. Hard time getting them to church. We did have one come yesterday and  should be getting baptized on the 21st. His name is Mark. Super funny guy.

Elder Jensen and I are striving to make the Sabbath a key principle in our teaching. Trying to make it a reality to all. Trying to "make the Sabbath a delight".

I'm always so scattered writing these things. Just know that the work in Taiwan is moving forward. The Lord is in the details of our lives. Put your trust in Him.


I love you all,
Elder Chase Matua
