General Conference 💪

Haluo everyone! Hope you all had an outstanding week :) mine was good!! 

Last Monday I went on a pretty walk with my comp and there were these random giant hulahoops at the top! I discovered I still have the skills then afterward we had a lesson with our friend 丸子！ Please pray for her, the lessons are fine, and she said she believes us but isn't willing to keep any commitments. 

Tuesday we did some weekly planning from last week and then that night we had a miracle! While we were eating dinner a guy came up and started talking with us and we were able to set him up again! Blessings!! Then we went to a far place and visited some of our friends that we don't really have contact with. So that was fun! 

Wednesday morning, we had mini-MLC and District Council right after, and I gave the training which was pretty good, nothing really worth mentioning happened the rest of the day. 

Thursday we were doing weekly planning and ended up going to do some service for an older less active in the ward. It was fine, but she kept talking about a devil in her home, but my comp and I didn't feel anything wrong, so we just reminded her to pray and gave her some other options! Please pray for her!  That night we were doing more weekly planning and another lady came up and started talking with us and we found out she had met with missionaries in the past! We were able to make her a new friend, miracles! I guess Heavenly Father just doesn't want us to do weekly planning haha. 

Friday we were going to have a long service activity, but they told us last minute that they had enough people, which was a shame cause we kind of rearranged everything around it. But we finally finished our weekly planning! Wang jm and I came up with a fun new finding method, but we only had 10 minutes, and didn't have any success. But on the way to our dinner apt Wang jm added a line while biking! We were there for a reason :) then we had a member meal and went to a ward activity for like 30 seconds and practiced some music for a baptism on Saturday!! 

Saturday morning, we played frisbee with some YSA, and then we went to a baptism for the Elders! I sang at it. Afterward we watched general conference, cause it was this weekend for Taiwan. It was so good! I still haven't had time to watch all of the sessions yet, but it was great :) afterward we did some more service for the LA above, and then that night we met with 丸子 again and taught the last half of the plan of Salvation. We still have far to go with her but she's got this :) 

Sunday we had General Conference yayay!!!! And then we went to our bishop's house for dinner and their family home evening, it was a lot of fun! Brought back memories, it was set up with a song and activity and treat like when I was little:) 

Today we went to Taroko gorge and hiked, and it was so pretty!! I love Taiwan and Heavenly Father's creations.   

Other funny things: 

-I almost accidentally poured alcohol on my dumplings because I thought it was vinegar

-At one of our lessons my companion was talking about church (or so I thought). She said, "We will sing, pray, hear different talks and testimonies...." I added in, "we also partake of the sacrament" and she said, "Oh no Sister Jensen, we're talking about FUNERALS." 

-crepes that we didn't have eggs or milk for, so we used Chia seeds and yogurt. It was an adventure.  

Spiritual thought for the week: This week we had a lesson and taught the plan of Salvation, and our friend asked us how we know the Plan of Salvation is true. It kind of surprised me a little, and I have been thinking about it. How do I know the Plan of Salvation is true? I know because of the Book of Mormon, which I know is true. I know because of little experiences I've had with it throughout my life. I most of all know because I learned it by the Spirit, line upon line, precept upon precept. It makes sense logically and spiritually, in a way that can only be divine. But that's just me. How do you know the plan of Salvation is true??
