The week of miracles began early as we pulled over to talk to "just some guy" at a convenience store on P-Day. We sat down with him, His name is Huang Shun Ting, and we taught him the full first lesson right there and set up to meet the next day. That was so cool! And just because we kept looking. It was a great start to our week of miracles.

Our miracle today also came from the streets as we stopped to talk to a lady cutting potatoes. Or... something that might have once been a potato. I don't know for sure. But she was really receptive to having us come and share about the Gospel. Her name was Mrs. Wu. She has a 14 year old son who likes learning about Jesus, and they invited us to come visit them.

Wednesday miracle was that I made it through another round at Tang Mama's. Man does that lady know how to cook! It was amazing. We had tacos and peanut butter chocolate cake. One of my new favorites. And our Recent Convert Sister Chen was there as well. And she's been continually reading the Book of Mormon, which is one of the biggest miracles of all. Because I know that the Book of Mormon can keep anyone close to Christ for as long as they are willing to continue reading it, and every time we get just a little bit closer. I love the Book of Mormon, and it is a part of a few other miracles this week!

Which was today. On Tuesday we met with Huang and he hadn't read what we asked him to. So we postponed Plan of Salvation and read with him for a few minutes. We thought it went alright, then we came for our lesson today and he read! He read all that we asked him to. And then we taught the Plan of Salvation and the Spirit was so strong. And at the end when we invited him to Church he said yes before we could even finish. He is a 50 year old man whose kids live outside of Puli now, and he has been a widower since the big earthquake about 20 years ago. It is amazing to just feel how ready he is to accept this Gospel.

Today's miracle comes from the Banana man. He is an investigator we found about 2 weeks ago. He was a little weird, but we stopped by to visit him and he let us in. And he was very interested about our religion. We taught him about his Heavenly Father, and at the end of the lesson, we invited him to kneel and pray with us, which he did. And the Spirit was so amazing there. It was so great to see him really feel that praying to his Heavenly Father is a real experience. And his name is Gan, by the way. Not just Banana man. That'd be an interesting invite. "Banana Man, are you willing to be baptized by one holding proper authority..."

We hit the streets hard today. Both Elder Hansen and I got exhausted by the end. But the end of the day brought two great miracles. We ran into a lady tracting who let us in, and we shared about eternal family's, and she agreed to meet again this week, and she said it was basically destiny, because usually her old mom is home who is super traditional, but she was gone at the very moment we knocked! GOD IS PREPARING HIS CHILDREN. And then we knocked a door nearby and found a Philipeno lady who only speaks English, so that was a bit of a new experience! She is Catholic and was willing to listen to a message about Jesus. It was a great night.

Huang came to church today! He came for Sacrament and I think he really liked it. We are going to work on getting him progressing towards baptism this week, so I'm really excited for him! And we also got a Duanchuan (short term missionary) this week! His name is Hong Zi Ting from Zhang Hua. He is super cool and I'm excited to see some miracles with him this week!
That is truly just a portion of the ways I see God's Hand move in my life every day. I love the Gospel and I love sharing it. And I love you all! I wish you all a Spirit filled week of amazingness!
