Alright first off I was a little dissapoited last week when I wasn't choseto perform at the sunday fireside but after my experience yesterday I am gladthat I had the oppotunity to sing "They hear the savior" at thedepatrure devotional. I felt the spirit really strongly and I bore my testimonythrough the song. After the devotional Brother Barker ( Reid Barker'sfather) who lead the music as a service missionary, came and we had a greatlittle talk about home and how it was nic to see me and I had such a goodlittle talk with him , Also the croud wasnt too large so i was still glad toperform ( only about 400 missionaries) well I am going to try out tomarrow withanother song that sister taijemulia(Tai jie mei) wrote sister Taijemulia wentto snow and the song is really good I think I will record it if I can and sendit to you. well I had a really great week I actually used my debit card... icashed 40 dollars I didn't buy anything, but I got my travel plans and I amgoing to fly Delta airlines to las Angeles then direct flight EVA airlines totaipie Taiwan. i will hopefully get to have a short phonecall with you all.
