Week 9: Putting Him to Work

Brendan's mission president sent us and email with a link to a video that shows some history and background on Mormon missionary work in general, and missionary work in Taiwan in particular.  At the end, it shows footage and still shots of all the new missionaries in the Taichung mission in action--talking to people on the street, and "Dan Jones-ing" it on a soapbox in the heart of Taichung's famous night market.  He'll be spending most of his mission in quieter ways, but there's nothing like being thrown in the deep end to get your feet wet, eh? :)

Anyway, here is a link to the video on YouTube.  Incidentally, Dan Jones was a very famous and successful Mormon missionary who helped to convert thousands of people in the British Isles in the 1800's. Here is the link to an article about him on Wikipedia for those (like me) who would like a little background.
