上週三,傑平在紐西蘭傳教時的第一位同伴兼訓練者Derek Sage帶著女友從加州飛來台灣玩。
其實他們來的主要目的是拜訪另一位王姊妹,我們雖不是主要招待者,但仍然找到機會和他們吃了晚飯並出遊一天。
Derek已經返鄉五年了,但是中文仍然說得很不錯!他和傑平從前同樣都是教會在紐西蘭的中文傳教士,在返鄉前跟傑平是同伴團,更之前是AP。從前聽聞不少關於他的有趣事蹟,也知道他是一位很棒的傳教士。這次有機會親自見到他本人,真的很開心!
Derek的女友,Keeley並不懂中文,所以大多時間由我作伴,在前往鶯歌、九份的路上她也與我同車陪我,由於人數較多且千千需要安全座椅,我跟傑平一人開一台車帶大家出遊。
台灣真的是寶島,小小地土地上有豐富的天然資源美景,台北週邊就有很多地方可遊玩,對很多外地人來說是很不可思議的!!
真希望有一天也能如此在台灣招待我的傳教同伴。
Leo's first mission companion and trainer, Derek Sage, came to Taiwan with his girl friend. We had a nice dinner and spent a whole day with them traveling to few of our favorite towns.
Derek was an amazing missionary and taught Leo alot during their mission. His girl friend, Keeley, though doesn't speak Mandarin, still had lots of fun with us. She was my driving companion on the road.
Taiwan truly is a treasure island. So many natural resources on such a tiny land. There are already so many places to visit and play just around Taipei City.
I wish someday I can have my companions visit Taiwan and hang out like this. :D
(Hey, do you hear me?! Companions!!??)

Hey, I hear you loud and clear- just trying to figure out how to save up that much money. :) I keep telling Jamo if he ever finds himself needing to go over there for business I am SO going with him!! It'll happen someday, just you wait! :)
Dear Sare, I know you will and have saved a nice room for you. Don't worry, when you do come. We're ready!
