Taiwan Taipei Mission: We moved and first transfer!

I can't believe I have already been here for one transfer!! I am still in Xizhi since I am being training, but we moved apartments!! It was definitely an adventure because President wanted us moved into our new apartment in one day! Our office Elders and our district Elders are champs because they helped us move all of our main stuff in around 4 1/2 hours!! We still have to deep clean the old apartment but other than that we are all good!! The new apartment is all new and nice and wow it's a dream!! When we cleaned out our old apartment (kind of lewl) it was so gross!!! There were years and years of old missionary stuff that were left in there. Our old apartment had gone through Elders and Sisters for many many years so...it was pretty old apartment.

Miracles:

Next week is going to be a whirlwind!! If everything works out, we might have four baptisms next Saturday!!!!! One of them is Cai Jiating, we are doing everything we can to help them feel prepared for baptism. They were originally supposed to be baptized this Saturday but they don't feel all the way ready yet so we are pushing it to next week and teaching them a little more. We met with the wife earlier last Thursday and we had an amazing lesson. We answered all of her questions that she was worried about, and my companion and I are confident that she is ready for baptism.

We also had the baptismal interview for Sherry who is a 16 year old and she passed her interview!! She's for sure getting baptized on the 25th of February!!! AHHHHHH. She has an amazing testimony and she always comes to church even when she is overloaded with homework.

Liu Jiemei also came to church, she is the most hardworking mom I have ever met. She works everyday from 9 am to 9 pm as a Realtor and then goes home to a daughter who kind of thinks she's a cat. (that's a story for a different email) She is taking the lessons super well, and we only have a few lessons left with her so...if we can meet with her often enough she will also be baptized on the 25th of February!

Nonspiritual things:

When we moved we found three hula hoops, a set of rusty weights, a pull up bar, a bat, 5 fans, 4 umbrellas, and a set of rusty tools.

When we left Songshan we took some cardboard with us so we could move all of our stuff. but we didn't take it normal people style oh no....we took it AMA (Old lady that carries around garbage in carts) STYLE.

So we strapped the cardboard to my trainer's luggage and then we took the big box and put it around my luggage. Did we get weird looks? Yes. of course we did.

Lol me and Sister Kim with this little angel boy statue before the beach and you can see the mosquito bites on my legs and on the face but no worry, they are getting better.
