大家好
The highlight of the week was being able to meet a
General Authority.
Elder Packe,r from the Quorum of the Seventy, came to
Taiwan. He did a two hour devotional with us (all the missionaries.) lt was
cool being able to shake his hand and feel Christ’s love emulating from God's
servant. He talked to us a lot about family history and how we can help our
investigators and converts prepare to help their ancestors receive salvation.
That’s something that’s a really special treat over here. If you go back a few generations with the
Taiwanese people, their ancestors are all from China, where no one had the
gospel. So it’s super cool to be able to be a part of helping the ancient Chinese
receive salvation. Family history work is great too in that it helps our
converts stay active in the church, which is a huge problem over here.
What else is new? It is kind of like the weeks in the past.....
we've just been tracting and street contacting most of the day. It’s been sad
to see some of our investigators lose interest or just not see why the gospel
is so important in their lives. That’s probably one of the toughest things to
see as a missionary. You develop so much love for your investigators but then
seeing them lose desire in your message is tough. But it’s all good. We are
excited to go out and try to find some more prepared souls this week.
Love,
Elder Chatman
