Sixty-Sixth Week Email

안녕하세요?
   
    Well this was another great week in Korea as always. But I think the interesting part is that we received our transfer calls this morning. This has probably been the most shocking transfer plans ever. But don't worry Elder Hughes and I will be staying another transfer in the Joongang ward. But there are two wards in my district and the other ward is the stake center. What is happening is Elder Crowther my zone leader is coming to live in our house and replace Elder Brown. The other ward will lose two elders and be a two elder ward. And the two sisters we have right now will split the wards and both train. And the rest of our zone has some pretty crazy transfer plans as well so this transfer is going to be great.

   Well last week we had some really interesting appointments. First was Sister Go and her son Geehyun. They are just so much fun and it was Geehyun's birthday the day before so we took him some banana bread and he ate it so fast. But we were able to have such a great time with them and Sister Go is already a part of the relief society haha. We sat down together in church yesterday and she was just friends with the relief society sisters and we have a dinner planned at our member's house this week. Food and eating together is such a big part of Korean culture and it's going to be such an amazing time. And we did make our way back to primary this week and Geehyun had such a fun time. It was a little less intense this week but don't worry my ward missionary leader's wife still picked on me a lot, and all of the primary kids are so hilarious. But I am still amazed with how the primary program has changed because all I remember from primary was popcorn songs and throwing my scriptures in the air while singing scripture power haha. These little children are standing up and saying what kind of blessings we have received from the priesthood. And don't worry Geehyun and I worked as a team again to answer some questions and I got yelled at again.

   We were also able to meet a really cool new friend. His name is Jayhoon and he is really really good at english. It was really interesting because we walked out of a restaurant in the downtown part of our city and here is the entire district doing a street boarding activity and Jayhoon met our entire district. And because it was a Saturday night here comes one of my best friends Jeansol who we have been meeting for about a month now, and right after that here comes Sister Jang and her husband from our ward who always helps us out all of the time and give us food. And they take all of us over and buy us a quick waffle from a street vendor and we just all had a quick conversation. So here's a strange group of foreigners and Koreans standing in the middle of the street just eating waffles and having a great time. Jayhoon actually might come out to our zone activity today because he had such a great time with our district last week.

   So it was a really great week and we have some bigger plans for this week. I hope all of you have an amazing week and I love all of you so much.
