Transfer 3 - Week 1

This last week has been pretty great!

Brother Zhong got baptized! He's a total stud basically. Played basketball with him last P-Day and he's actually pretty good! You'll see him in the pictures he's so cute :) Let's see well I don't know if in my last email I mentioned how huge are area is. This transfer they combined 2 areas into 1 so we took over some other Elder's investigators and area as well as my companion's old area. So we have a bunch of investigators and we were trying to meet all of them this week but many of them have been unable to meet, sadly.

We have over 20 investigators so it's pretty crazy. And those are investigators that we can regularly meet with too. Elder Beck and I still adore each other, of course. Haha we get along really well and are almost the same person. Both love camping, like the same music, sports, same style, both play guitar, have a dream of playing the piano and we both are just pretty chill bros. This last week we've made delicious pancakes, ate stinky tofu, played guitar together and even volunteered at a hospital to do service! I pretty much love my new area and companion. It's great.

We have a new investigator, Brother Chen, whom we're meeting tonight and he's secretly like a millionaire or something. We first him and he was wearing some faded jeans with a t-shirt and a camouflage vest over that. But when we saw him drive away he got in a brand new Mercedes! He must be Batman or something. But this guy is awesome, only met him once so far at church but I've got a good feeling about this guy.

Today for P-day we're going to a guitar store in Taipei and it's going to be awesome! Also this week we want to go "guitar contacting"! We want to go to the local park, which is extremely beautiful by the way, and just whip out our guitars and play songs for people, mostly Chinese hymns, and then boom talk to people about the Gospel! It's going to be so awesome, we're super excited. I'll try and get some pictures of it next week. Well things are pretty great and I can't believe I've already been out for 6 months! Where does the time go? Sheesh. Love you all!

Love,

Elder Hagedorn

Went to ikea for lunch!! Love this place.

You can climb up on top of this stadium thing at the park and it's absolutely beautiful! 

Elder Beck eating some delicious pancakes... hehehe... MAN those things are good. We bought some german cereal stuff, like granola grain type of cereal, and we put that in our pancake mix, as well as cinnamon, and what came out was straight from heaven. Put some blueberry jam on top and we both about melted from tastiness.
