I am Caleb Wertz (Weng Zhang Lao) I was a missionary in the branch from 1999-2001. Some of my companions were Elder Johnson, Elder Gordon, Elder Thorsted, Elder Chiu, Elder Chen, Elder Fugal. We had such a fun time together serving in the branch. My mission president was President Gary Farnes.
I have so many great memories being in the branch it's very hard to name just a couple. A funny memory was my first day in the mission my companion played a trick on me. He told Sister Tsai to pretend to be an investigator. So we knocked on her door and she let us in and we started to teach her. I remember she had to leave the room for a second, and I asked my companion "do you think she will get baptised?" Ha! It was a really funny experience. Another experience that was really neat was when I got transferred to College Park our English class was very small. We maybe had 3 students. Me and my companion decided we were going to work hard to get more students. So we posted English Class flyers literally everywhere! We posted them on street poles, grocery stores, apartment complexes, costco, etc. The next week we had about 70 people at english class. It was such a blessing and through that English class we were able to meet Cui Kai Rong who joined the church a couple weeks after I left to go home. I had tons of experiences in the branch. I miss the branch; I need to plan a vacation and come visit. I was touched by so many of your testimonies, your faith, your sincerity, and your love.
I graduated from Brigham Young University about 5 years ago and have been doing residential real estate in Utah for the past 3 and a half years. I am still single, but hopefully one of these days will change that :)
I don't have a blog yet, although I've thought about it. The only website I have is a real estate one:

I miss everyone and love you all.
