Finding Joy in Music

Introduction of the Instructor

Sister Pei-Zhen Zou first met the missionaries in Fengyuan, Taichung when she was sixteen. Although her father opposed it at the time, with her mother’s support she firmly chose to be baptized. After her baptism, her father’s heart gradually softened, and his attitude toward the Church became more open and understanding.

At age twenty-one, she served as a full-time missionary in the Taipei Mission. After completing her mission, she studied at Brigham Young University–Hawaii, majoring in Piano Pedagogy.

She loves reading, swimming, music, and singing. With a gentle heart, she shares the gospel and enjoys using art and creativity to inspire the spiritual growth of children.
