Forty-Ninth Week Email

안녕하세요

 

   Well what a fun filled week in Korea haha. I'll just start one day was spent in Daejeon for our christmas party which was crazy. Being with my 동기(dong-gi) was so much fun. That means we were at the MTC together and came to Korea together. I really want to find a word in english that would work for that. Anyways we had a huge party and did gift exchanges, watched madagascar 3, ate american food, and had a devotional. And I don't want to brag or anything but my 동기 is by far the coolest 동기 in our mission.... actually I did want to brag a little bit.

 

Well it was a pretty great week though. We started off the week with meeting one of our member's and his friends. Elder Rice and his last companion built an amazing relationship with both of them and it was so nice to go in and just have an immediate trust. And also to have our member there the entire time to just tell his friend how everything has improved and helped in his life. So far this ward has just been amazing with having spare time and instead of watching tv they give us a call and see if there's anything they can help us with. I was shocked the other day when we were planning and we had planned on calling our member but when we finished up he texted us and told us that he wanted to help us that day haha. But we have spent a lot of time talking to people and trying to find more people to meet with and that's always fun. I talked to somebody yesterday who lived in Chicago for a couple years and he actually walked up to us and started telling us about how he knew a mormon kid in his school and he was always the nicest person. We made a quick appointment and that is always such a strange experience haha. You spend all of your time talking to people and somebody finally walks up to you and wants to meet later on haha.

 

Sorry I'm really boring this week but it has been a little crazy with the christmas party and everything like that. Elder Rice is doing great and we are having a great time. Christmas time is starting to settle in and it's such a great time to be a missionary. Just like watching general conference felt different this time of year feels different. We have been out sharing messages about christmas with memebers and it's completely different how I have ever spent christmas and I actually really love it. Well have a great week and I love all of you.
