March 27, 2011 - Senior Companion AND District Leader!

OK Family, I'm sorry I'm emailing so late. I moved to a new area and.... Whats this?

It seems that Elder Graham is evolving.......

Elder Graham is evolving!

Elder Graham has evolved into............... a Senior Companion!

Whoa!! Whats this??

Not only that, but Elder Graham evolved into District Leader Elder Graham!

OK sorry for that. You guys probably don't get the joke because you never played Pokemon on my old game boy.

Anyway. So yeah I moved into the mountains of yuan lin. And yes I have my own district that has three companionships in it. Both of the other companionships are training right now and so we have to be really good! It's really scary because I went from a little Junior who didn't have any responsibility to a District Leader and now I have to watch over 5 other people and make sure they know what they are doing. But I don't even know what I'm doing! haha It is really kind of weird. Anyway.

I want to tell you guys about last week. It was soooooooooo good. OK I don't have my miracle book because I packed it. But basically we got to go out to dinner with our recent convert chen zheng gong and his family. We had hot pot. It was really good. But it was so good because he wrote his testimony on a card and gave it to me. But what was even cooler is yesterday.

Yesterday was probably the best day of my mission. OK so what happened is the sisters baptized 5 people and the elders from Nan zi baptized one. It was so good because Chen zheng gong is our recent convert and his daughter and his daughter's friend and his daughters friends daughter all got baptized because he has a testimony and he stopped smoking and started spending time with his family and stuff again instead of gambling with his friends. It is so good. And now his daughter's friend's mom is also getting baptized in two weeks. And his wife's younger sister is getting baptized in Taibei in two weeks as well.
I am going to miss that place. I hope that someday we can all come back to Gaoxiong. I have lots of people who want me to write them letters. It is soooo good. So yeah. And the other cool thing is that Chen zheng gong got the priesthood last week so he did two of the baptisms. And our other recent convert chen zhong liang did some of them too. It was just really good. Awesome. All of our recent converts are doing awesome.

Yes kami they have donuts in Taiwan but they are just like fried bread with sugar on it. I'm getting much more comfortable with the language. I can pretty much communicate they way I want to for the most part. I just need to keep working on not sounding like a wai guo ren.

Oh yeah I just got a new companion and his name is Elder Galespie. I think that's how you spell it. I've only been with him for about an hour. He is really smart and I think his Chinese is better than mine. Our apartment only has one bathroom though... Ughh. But It is still pretty sweet. Right now I'm still just trying to figure out the area. He has been in this area for three move calls now.
I don't think there is anything I really need from home except for the prayers I know I already get.

Love Elder Graham

See ya in a year,

March 20, 2011 - Focusing on our recent converts

Hello Family and other people!
Just so you guys know, if you go on my facebook and look at my friends, you can look at a lady's facebook and find the cutest asian baby pictures. Her name is Pinky. She is one of the sisters' recent converts, and her baby is soooo cute and at church yesterday, she kept on reaching her hands at me and wanted me to hold her, but its against the rules.... I don't like that rule. All of the other ones are good, but I really don't like the not holding babies rule.

To answer your e-mails:

Way to go Sisi for getting grounded! Now you can read scriptures and do your homework.
Sisi... Be careful with boys. When I get back I have to interview each date you have.
Yes Kami I played soccer. And I write in my journal most days. I will have to buy a new one soon. I've almost filled mine up.

ugg. xu wen hao said he didn't want to come to church anymore because it "makes him tired". 藉口!!!!!!!! So yes, smoking is a big problem.
Taiwanese pb tastes like reeses peanut butter.

Yes I have been out for a year. But!!!!! I haven't hit my halfway mark yet. so yeah.
xiao4fa3 效法 is just the scriptural way of saying follow/to follow an example.
I can testify that a study journal is awesome because I've kept one and wrote in it every day for the last 50 or 60 days and its really cool to look back and see what I've done. My list is in the back of my journal. Its just a small list right now.

It's time once again for MONDAY MADNESS!

Monday: Today was good because we found out that because chen di xiong got baptized at least 3 more people are investigating the church and want to be baptized. His daughter, his daughter's friend and his daughters friends daughter are all getting baptized in two weeks. They saw how he changed his life and quit smoking and now they will do anything to be baptized.
Tuesday: Change yesterday's number to 4. Chen di xiong's daughter's friend's mom wants to be baptized also. She went to the nearest chapel where she lives and just sat outside the church until someone came and said she wanted to be baptized. Sweet.
Wednesday: Today was CDTM and during the Presidents interview he hinted that I might go senior.
Thursday: Today I learned some sweet Taiwanese.
Friday: Sun said he wants to become a missionary. And Chen di xiong said he wants the priesthood so he can baptize his daughter.
Saturday: Chen di xiong told us that before he was baptized his hand would shake like an old man. But after he got baptized his hand stopped shaking as bad, which is good because his hobby is painting.
Sunday: We had a good 8 investigators at church, but even better we had 6 out of 11 recent converts at church. That's double the mission average. We also found out that our recent convert chen zhong liang will be baptizing the sisters investigator who will be baptized in 6 days.

Yay for monday madness. Well that's about all I got for today. This week went by really fast. We had lots of lessons but we didn't find very many new people to teach. We also have been focusing a lot on our recent converts. Oh yeah. Yesterday two of the 70 came to our ward and spoke and had some good things to say. One said that President Monson's "theme" is "rescue". And that it is everybody's responsibility to help bring those who have drifted away to come back into the fold.

See ya in a year,

March 13, 2011 - 2 weeks of Monday Miracle Madness

Fam,
This week was pretty good. Our district has had at least one (if not four) baptism every week for 3 weeks now and we have a nice escalator effect for our investigators and so we will continue to have those.

This is our recent convert chen and his Taxi.

OK I'm going to quickly type Monday madness!

Monday the 28th: Nap. Costco. That's all I have to say. Oh yeah. and muffins.

Tue: Today I was senior comp with Elder Farr because Elder Summerhays went to lingya. For the first time in my mission, we hit all 8 of our key indicator goals. ALL of them. And I was senior. felt good. And some sweet stuff happened today. 1. I got a call from the assistants telling me a lady wanted to give some referrals. Yay for member referrals! Then we went to visit Chen dx's restaurant. We had planned on just meeting with his wife because yesterday he said he wouldn't be there today. Anyway, he happened to get back early from whatever he was doing. We had an awesome lesson. The coolest part is that he found his Jia1 Pu3. Family history. 940 years worth of it. All the way back to the first Chen to come to Taiwan from China. And he planning on going to the temple for them as soon as possible.

Wed: I was still acting as senior when the assistants called for Surprise Exchanges!!..... Chen DX passed his second interview and is set to go for his baptism on Sunday.

Thur: We saw chen dx family history book. Its huge.

Friday: Chen DX is excited for his baptism!

Sat: Sun got baptized. But we knew that would happen.

Sun: Chen dx got baptized. His wife was crying the whole time. His granddaughter is super cute. Shes only 2.

Monday the 7th: We walked up and ran down monkey mountain. and saw a dog eat monkey poo.
Tuesday: My legs still hurt from monkey mountain. Sweet.
Wednesday: We found an entire village made out of cement. Its way up in the mountains and we call it "New Taiwan"
Thur: Sun dx said he was planning on becoming a missionary. This was his 5th day of being a member. wow. Sat: Chen dx cannot even stand the smell of someone smoking anymore. He said that he starts coughing if someone is smoking around him.
Sun: We had 7 people at church and 4 of them were new. After the sister's investigators baptism, we sat down with Xu wen hao (guy who chooses smoking over God. Willingly). and our new member Sun dx helped us teach. He helped a ton and we actually set a goal for xu wen hao to be baptized in 3 weeks. we also found out that sun had a super big smoking problem before he was baptized but he came over it through "sincere prayer and reading the scriptures"

So yeah its been a pretty good last two weeks.

I have a spot in the back of my journal for places to go when we come back!

Yes pops I got the letter with the picture of greg. Its sweet.
women yinggai yao xiaofa yesujidu de bangyang qu jieshou xili
Yeah I am used to the food. Xiguan le. I really like it. And today we are going to buy a coffee can size thing of pure taiwanese peanut butter. yumm. My favorite food... I have a lot. Like.. well I don't know what they are called sometimes.. umm but chao fan is good. we also eat lots of mian4 and bian4dang1 (Lunchbox) its where you pick a meat and three veggies and you get rice. for about $1.50 USD. Then all of the night market food like zhua bing s and other fried things like that.
Shaved Ice! ------>

March 6, 2011 - Chen and Sun Baptisms!

Dear Family and anybody else,

First off, tell Sarah happy birthday and sorry that I didn't get her anything.

And second off I'm sorry. I didn't bring my Monday madness stuff. But that isn't my fault. What happened is that we were waiting for the zone leaders at the jia le fu at 7 in the morning because they wanted to go to monkey mountain and it's in our area so we have to show them where it is. Anyway they called us at 7:02 and told us that they slept through their alarm. They told us to go email while they get ready to go to monkey mountain. So A. I don't have a lot of time. And B. I forgot my book so I'm sorry. And C. I emailed early so I didn't get an email from you guys so... I don't really have a chance to reply back.

But this week was really good. We had two baptisms. Sun 弟兄Brother Sun) and 陳弟兄 (Brother Chen).

Sun is just awesome. He was so good. -->

<--Chens baptism was yesterday. His baptism was a really good service. His wife shared her testimony and broke down crying. She literally fell to her knees at the pulpit as she was sharing how grateful she was that this day was finally there that her husband could be baptized. She stayed on her knees for about 15 seconds before she got up. It was really good. I cannot wait until they go to the temple. awwwwww man I wish I had my Monday madness book. There were some really good things in there that you guys will get to read next week. Sorry. I don't want to just wing it from memory though or else I will ruin it for when I can actually write it.

Did you guys like the cute Asian babies?

See ya in a year,

Feb 27, 2011 "Because I believe in Heavenly Father..."

Hello hello hello fam and friends!

This week was pretty good. This is just part one because I have to send some pictures. But basically the last two days were stake conference which was really good. We had some really good things happen there.

I think Sarah will have lots of fun in China. Sounds like you guys are doing awesome!

This week... Well I'll just write MONDAY MIRACLE MADNESS!!

Monday: Chen di xiong only smoked 4 cigs today. He should be down to 1 by tomorrow.
Tuesday: He only smoked 1!! His last one ever!
Wednesday: We got more FREE dong gua cha.
Thursday: Kevin came back to church. Sun passed his interview.
Friday: Kevin didn't chew binlang for a whole day. We taught the drunk guy again. He told us he feels unworthy to go to the church. And that his wife is kind of interested.
Saturday: Chen di xiong came to stake conference! He has completely quit smoking! He came and he loved it. He was telling everyone about his baptism in 8 days. Sun came to the priesthood meeting of stake conference and loved it. He can't wait to be baptized. He was fasting today and even paid fast offerings. He just barely found out what that stuff is!
Sunday: Sun loved stake conference today. Lai di di got baptized with his mom. Sun came to the baptism and loved it and is super excited for his baptism. He was telling everybody about how he is getting baptized on the 5th.

So that's it for miracle madness. Pretty good week.

We cleaned our apartment!


Pops to answer your question from last week, I got the letter you sent me on the 24th.

Sun di xiong is awesome. He is 24 and he loves everything we tell him. At the baptism last night I asked him why he wants to be baptized and all he said is "Because I believe in Heavenly Father and I will do what he wants me to do." WWHHHOOOOOAAAAA. Good answer sun.

Yeah, so this week was pretty good. Today we get to go to Costco again to get food that makes you fat. But I don't care right now because I probably won't be in this area another move call. This week we taught lots and lots of lessons. I've been learning a lot about how you phrase things and how you ask questions really affects the way we teach.

Lai di di got baptized last night. There were a total of four people getting baptized. It was good except for the two brothers who were also getting baptized are the most out of control, crazy, and hyper kids I have ever seen. Like.. They were laughing and jumping around when they were in the font getting baptized! Then when they were supposed to share their testimony, they just screemed into the microphone. And the mom didn't even do anything. She just sat there... Anyway. It was kinda weird.

I think that might be all for this week, If I forgot something, I'm very sorry. kinda. yes I am.

Feb. 20 2011 Personal Revelation

Hello hello hello.
So this week was pretty good. We had two people pass baptismal interviews. We should be having at least one baptism a week for the next three weeks. Sweet. This Sunday a son of a lady who is also getting baptized who is thirteen is planning on getting baptized. Then the 5th of March a part member father (陳) who is on a quit smoking program right now will get baptized. He has changed soooo much. The first time we met with him he wouldn't let us pray and he wouldn't accept the Book of Mormon we tried to give him. He wants to go to the temple now. Sweet. And then we have a super golden guy who wants to be baptized as soon as possible. But he has only been to church once... so far.

Anyway. The way you get 31 new investigators in one day is you go around adding people all day long. Crazy sauce.

Outback Burger Day!

It’s time for Monday miracle madness!!!!!!!
Monday: I had an awesome two hour nap.
Tuesday: We had an awesome lesson with Sun Dx. Chen set a baptismal date. He has improved so much.
Wednesday: We had the same amount of lessons taught with a member as we did normal lessons.
Thursday: Sun is still awesome. Chen is good and has his interview tomorrow! We had 10 total lessons today. Sweet.
Friday: I got to go on exchanges with Elder Durham. Who is my MTC companion’s trainer.
Saturday: Lai didi passed his interview. Chen di xiong (Brother Chen) is on a quit smoking program and is set for his baptism on the fifth.
Sunday: We went over to our new member's (陳忠liang2) house and had an awesome lesson on the family and the temple etc... We also met his really nice and really Asian wife. I hope she gets baptized and then the whole family can go to the temple.
Yay for Monday madness!!! And now I will type out the thing I've been working on during personal study. Sorry if there are any errors or grammar mess-ups....

As members, but especially as missionaries, everything we do should be done under the guidance of the spirit (D+C 42:14, 2 Nephi 32:5, Alma 21:16). Personal revelation in missionary work is very important (Alma 17:2-3). In Preach My Gospel we are promised "You will succeed in your work as you learn to receive and follow personal revelation" (p. 89). A good example of personal revelation from the Book of Mormon is found in 1 Nephi 10: 11-14. Nephi's brothers cannot understand Lehi's revelation about the Gentiles (see 1 Nephi 10: 11-14). In verse 11 of chapter 15 Nephi tells his brothers how they can understand the meaning through the power of the Lord. He also tells us how he did it in 1 Nephi 10: 17-19(start with "I, Nephi was desirous..." We are promised many times that if we ask, seek, and knock, all things will be made known unto us. (D+C 4:7, Matt 7 etc..)
My old mission president, President Hoer promised us that we would have the spirit and thus be successful is we are Worthy, Obedient, and Diligent.
Just like commandments, being worthy does not mean simply not doing bad things. Being worthy to receive spiritual guidance also has some other requirements. Let’s start with the basics: The first one is "pray with faith" (see page 93 in preach my gospel). Nephi also tells us that we must "pray always" and pray for guidance ( 2 Nephi 32: 8-9) Also see chapter 8 of the Gospel Principles book.
In Mosiah 18:23,25 we are commanded to go to church. The Sunday block of meetings is a great place to receive personal revelation or an answer to a prayer.
Personal and family scripture study. Personal study is my favorite time of the day. As we read the scriptures we are filled with the Spirit. (1 Nephi 1:12, 2 Nephi 32: 3, 5)

To obey God is a commandment. There are wayyyy to many scriptures to back this up. But one reference I will make is in chapter five of Preach My Gospel. The first sentence on page 108 tells us that the Book of Mormon helps us understand that "commandments are not a restrictive list of do's and don'ts but guideposts to a happy abundant life." Missionaries have a lot more rules that members have. That is because we bear the name of Jesus Christ on our name tags. Sometimes I think that obedience as a member is just as important. Other people are watching their example as well. They make a difference in other people's lives.


Ok that’s all I have so far. Elder Graham has to go now.

Feb 13, 2011 - Outback Steak House & Baptism

Dear family/friends and anybody else,

The guy in the baptism picture is not my investigator but I took pictures for Elder Petters and that picture is funny.

Anyway, how is my family?
This week was pretty OK. Today is move day but nobody in my entire district moved so its kinda boring for us. But I'm kinda glad because we found an OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE in our area and on Mondays (preparation day) it is really cheap for a burger and unlimited soda and unlimited bread. Like less than 6 US dollars. And so we can go there every Monday for lunch and be full for the rest of the day. Anyway. It is kinda weird being with the same companion for over three months.

This week some stuff happened. Yesterday I passed off "phase 1" which is a requirement for going senior. But all it is, is being able to teach all the lessons using everything you would use in a real lesson. Plus a lot of vocab and "teaching phrases" that have to be recited. It was really long. But now its done and I can start learning Chinese any way I want to. I think I'm going to keep learning vocab and keep working on my speech rather than focusing on characters. Anyway during my "pass off" this guy came in and wanted to pay off his sins. He looked like someone who didn't have a lot of money. In fact he looked homeless. But he came in with 20,000 yuan. That's over $600 USD. Six hundred dollars!!! He kept on saying that his friend told him that if you donate money to our church all your sins are forgiven. Apparently he never read Mormon 8:32-33. Yeah, we don't do the whole money for sins thing.

Friday was the baptism of a girl who just turned 12. My companion and I started teaching her and her father but then his father said he wasn't interested. And it would probably be a little weird for the girl if we kept on teaching her. So we handed her over to the sisters in our ward. That little girl is so good! She was baptized as soon as possible and she already went to do baptisms for the dead. Anyway that's who the girl is in the picture that I sent. That picture is really cool I thought because I took the picture towards the baptismal font mirror. anyway.

As always it is time for Monday Miracle Madness!.............................
Monday: I went out to eat with Ben from Feng Jia. He told me that my recent convert, Chen Yu Jie still goes to church sometimes and is fairly active.
Tuesday: We added 31 new investigators.
Wednesday: I taught English class and enjoyed it.
Thursday: Shen Di Xiong came back and was happy and wants to feed us on Saturday.
Friday: The sisters baptized 林 yi chen. A little girl who just turned 12. She was baptized, confirmed, and passed a temple recommend interview all in one day. She is doing baptisms for the dead tomorrow in Taipei.
Saturday: We have 2 awesome people who are just begging for baptism. Sun and 陳弟兄 (Brother Chen). Sun has been wanting to get baptized for a while and has absolutely not problem with any of the commandments. 陳 (Chen) received an answer to his prayer. He wants to be baptized as soon as possible. Which is two weeks. I also bought a light up crystal thing of a very "catholic" Jesus.
Sunday: we had five investigators at church. Both of our recent converts came to church. And 陳弟兄 (Brother Chen) got a calling doing Family history work stuff. Sweet.
That's it for miracle madness.

Watch out for May 21st, I guess!!!
Ohhhhh I want to see Brinn. She is so cute. Sisi that is a weird dream. You should probably stop having weird dreams like that 吧 (!). Tommy is a member friend who I first met in Taizhong but he lives here in Gaoxiong. He has perfect English because his dad owns a bunch of English learning centers and he used to go to school at SNOW.
Yeah most everyone is back from their traveling for Chinese new year. Except for our investigators... Anyway.
NO I DID NOT GET THE FORWARD ABOUT GEOFFERY"S MISSION CALL!!!!! AAAHHHHHHHH!
Pops, Preach My Gospel is legit. Anyone can use is as a way to study the gospel. Its really cool. We learned about it at the last zone conference. In the lessons that we teach it mentions the different parts of Jesus Christ's gospel like a million times. For Chinese new year we had lots of appointments and we had to eat lots of stuff that we still don't really know what it was... I would like that talk. Thank you pops.
Well Elder Graham has to write the president now. Later..
Love,
Elder Graham

Feb 6, 2011 - Chinese New Year & Mr. Chen Baptism

Dear Family,

I haven't gotten an email from you guys yet but that's OK because its not your fault. This week is power week which means we get out the door at 930 instead of 1030 in the morning. But I thought I should start writing. This week was super slow because of Chinese New Year. Which means everyone goes back to where they grew up. Which means all the big cities are pretty much empty. And guess where this Elder is. Right in the center of downtown Kaohsiung. (高雄). So pretty much everyone that we did talk to, lives in taizhong or china or somewhere else. Oh well. We got taken out to eat by a lot of members and had "real" Taiwanese food. yummy. Sorry I don't have any pictures of that.

We did have a baptism this week which was awesome! It was cool because Mr. Chen (陳) had to give up drinking every night to not drinking and it was awesome because he slept better and instead of drinking, he would read the Book of Mormon. He is a sweet, old, fat taxi driver who loves church more than anything else in his life. Its awesome.

OK everybody clap your hands for...... Miracle Madness!
Monday: We got to go to Costco. Oh yeah
Tuesday: We had nine total lessons today. Sweet.
Wednesday: We got to go to the island to eat "real" Taiwanese food. And I didn't throw up. A miracle!
Thursday: We got taken out to smoky Joe's. Sooo good. And it was zone conference. Double whammy.
Friday: We got to see my best 93 year old friend, Cha Di Xiong. Love that man. Also the homeless Buddhist guy that we see everywhere, that thinks we are so evil that he wont touch us or even shake our hands, asked me to loan him money so he could buy alcohol to drink on new years.
Saturday: Chen di xiong got baptizzled.
Sunday: We had 105 people at church even though it was Chinese new year. 陳 (Chen) got confirmed.

So that's it for the miracles. Right now we are focusing on finding new investigators. Now that Mr. Chen got baptized, we don't have any people with baptismal dates. We have lots of investigators that are willing to meet and stuff but that aren't "progressing". So if anybody knows anyone here....
So at zone conference we got new copies of the Book of Mormon in English so that we could focus our studies on finding and highlighting 1. The names of Christ. 2. Attributes of Christ. 3. Words of Christ 4. The Doctrine of Christ. (Faith, Repentance, Baptism, Gift of the Holy Ghost, and Enduring to the End)
Its been really good.
I've also been reading through the Bible. There was something from my gospel study journal I was going to write to you guys. But I forgot. Sorry. Maybe next week.

Love, Elder Graham

January 30,2011 - "He would drink every night before bed. But now he reads the scriptures in stead."

Hello family!

Good to hear from you guys and from pops.
Sisi that's not something I need to hear. silly girl.
So this week should be sweet. Chinese new years. We have dinner appointments every day pretty much and there will be lots of fireworks and craziness here.
This past week was different. Monday was preparation day. Tuesday I went on exchanges with someone who is younger than me but is a senior companion. Wednesday was English class. Thursday all the leaders had training and my companion is district leader and so he had to go to that so I went with Elder Wheeler from Idaho. And during that time I was the senior companion because it was in my area. We ended up with really good numbers. A little bit better than we usually get. It was really cool. Then on Friday the same thing happened except it was a threesome with me and Elder Wheeler and Elder Waters.
It was really good and we taught lots of lessons and found lots of new people as well.
Next Saturday we are having another baptism for a Chen qiu zhen. He is 60 years old and is a taxi driver. He was a really solid member referral. He had a problem with drinking. He would drink every night before bed. But now he reads the scriptures every night instead. He reads for about an hour every day. So good.
Last night we met with Xu wen hao. He is the one who wants to get baptized but he can't quit smoking. Last night he told us that he asked God in one of his prayers if he could be baptized and go to the Celestial Kingdom and still smoke. He told us that God gave him the answer "No.". He received an answer from Heavenly Father that in order to go to the celestial kingdom he has to quit smoking. We watched "Finding Faith in Christ" (thanks mom). It was really good and it build his testimony. He would be such a good member if he could get over the whole smoking thing. Whenever we say something he always says something like "Yes I know, because I was reading in the Book of Mormon in ______ and it said that _________. Which is exactly what you are saying. Right?" He loves reading the Book of Mormon, speaking with his Heavenly Father through prayer. He loves learning at church. He would be so good.


OK its time for..... Miracle Madness!!
Monday the 24th: We got Brother Zeng to laugh. It was beautiful. Elder Farr peed his pants. I got to take a two hour nap.
Tuesday: We added 19 new investigators. I ate peanut M&M's. I saw a guy shoot a homemade firework gun into a casino.
Wednesday: I got to sleep in Zhou zhang lao's old bed. I ate M&M's for breakfast. And a muffin!
Thursday: I was senior companion and we did awesome.
Friday: I was senior comp and we survived the scary place.
Saturday: Brother Chen passed his interview.
Sunday: We had 7 investigators at church. Both Chen's came. Xu received an answer to his prayer while at church. Chen zhong liang got the priesthood. Good day.

So those were the miracles that happened this week.
This week I learned that if someone comes to church, reads the scriptures, and prays. They will get personal revelation. Also last week I started reading the New Testament. I'm in Mark right now. Jesus is pretty cool. He knew what he was doing.


Love,
Elder Graham
