Hello Family and Friend,</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">

We went on exchanges and I went with Sister Levitre who is also in my returning home missionary group?... or what we call 동기 We spent a lot of time talking and there as been times on my mission when I feel that I was not a successful missionary. Not because of numbers or anything but as sisters we really think to deeply about things but anyways, it was really comforting to her from her and her feelings on her mission. While me and Sister Levitre were together we met with of Potential Investigator 김유영s. She is really a different Korean. Most Koreans have the same mindset because that is just how their culture is but she is different. She actually reminds me a lot of mom. Very strong about the things she believes but is interested in learning more. We met her at a cafe and talked with her. Last time we met her we met with her friend who is a Christian and taught the first lesson to her. It could have been a much better lesson because I didn't give her a chance to speak but anyways, she wants to meet us again soon. But back to the lesson. Awhile back we gave 김유영s a Search for Happiness and when we arrived she was reading it. She really likes it. She asked us questions about baptism and if other people who were baptized could be baptized again and if they had to.. Anyways, we had a really good conversation with her about baptism. I then asked her with just complete honesty and just from me if she really came to know that this church was true even if it was years later, would she get baptized. And she immediately said yes but then realized what she said and then kind of bowed her head and looked up and told us the reasons why she can't though. To me that was a testimony builder that the spirit really can speak to people and speak for people when they know but the natural man or Satan comes back. That was a really good meeting with her. I told her I would come visit her and she wants to meet mom. </div>

Then that night I talked for about 30 minutes on the phone with a less active. Her name is 김애경. She is in her 50s. She calls me every once in awhile to just talk. We used to meet her but then she decided she doesn't like the Mormon church so she left. I am still friends with her and she is really nice.. just different in her own way. We talked about the weather and things like that and then she told me," Sister Lebit, I am really going to miss you. I can tell that you a good girl." My heart just sank. I didn't think she would ever say something like that to me. She told me that she appreciated me talking with her. I even tried to hang up with her because we need to plan at one time before she told me this but she asked if we could talk more. When she first called me telling me that she was never coming back, I was devastated and the things she told me I didn't really like her telling me. But just with a little bit of charity, I helped even in the smallest way to think better of missionaries. She still won't come to church though haha.</div>

The same day, Wednesday, (sorry going a little out of order) We had our last 구역 모임 (District Meeting) that was super funny. Elder Kim and Elder Godfrey, who are companions, are probably the funniest companionship I ever met. They are soo different but the get along great. At the meeting, Elder Kim showed us a voice recording and Elder Godfrey freaked.. Oh, it was funny. I can't explained what happened because it just would make sense. But something about "yellow fever". I mainly type this part up for my future reference. Anyways, it was still a good meeting. Talking about the spirit. Sometimes on my mission I feel like I was directed by a strong feeling.. sometimes... most of the time. I think as missionaries we get so used to the feelings and prompting it just becomes human nature to us. Well of course only if we are worthy of it. But recognizing is probably the hardest part. That is one thing I learned on my mission.. ALWAYS follow the prompting of the spirit. And try listening for it. I think that is the hardest part for me. I am also so distracted by other things or have other thoughts that I can't even hear anything that Heavenly Father is trying to tell me.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
We then met with a new investigator with a member. It went fairly good.. I mean I don't think the two matched up very well but it was still good. She has read the book of Mormon up to 2 Nephi. I thought that was awesome and she remembers everything she learned. I hope something more with come with her after she leaves. She even gave me a rose. She has been attending our english class.. well since I have been here. A lot of our english class students are studying the Book of Mormon. Book of Mormon is the key to conversion (through the Holy Ghost). If you know the Book of Mormon is true you know everything in this church is true. If people only understand that. There wouldn't be any confusion.</div>

Thursday was a great day. TEMPLE DAY. Soomin even went and waited in the waiting room (because she can't enter yet) And she loved it!!! She told us the feelings and the inspirations she got even in the waiting room. She understands now why it is important to wait a year and be cleaned of everything before you enter. She also shared a very sacred and spiritual thing that happened to her in a dream. I don't know if I should share it now through email. But it was one of the greatest things I have ever heard. I just love her and she really wants to be better and improve there is just somethings we are still working on with her. But after the session we went with her and some other sisters (봉천) to a meat buffet. Yes, that is a thing here and it is AMAZING! hahah But, afterwards.. Soomin asked if it was against the WOW and I didn't know how to answer, because I am still not sure. We are still learning even as missionaries.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
We also went with her to buy me a backpack to start packing. But when we finally got home my body and mind couldn't handle it so I slept for the rest of the p-day. Then went to basketball that night but none of the girls showed up and I couldn't say bye. ㅜㅜ</div>

<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
Friday I did my last weekly planning and met with 이진영s the best investigator who has the cutest son!! We met with her earlier that week and she feed us for a going away gift. She is an amazing cook and baker. She knows how to make everything.. even sour cream pound cake! Anyways, we met with a member and they just hit it off. She opened up to her and I think they are planning a dinner together. And we gave her a Search for Happiness book in Korean for her husband. From the moment I met her I have the strongest impression that she is going to be wearing all white and it wasn't a feeling about baptism but for the temple. I am so excited, she is progressing so well. </div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
That night we also met with 강진s who is RC. She is great we had steak with her and she wanted to take some pictures so we did some sticker pictures with her. She is great. Needs a lot of love from the ward because there is many YSA her age in our area. So we are working with her. She might even go to BYU-I</div>

Saturday was a 정 building day. We spent the day with 서예지 (Isabella) and her mom. We played games, taught English and we wanted to share a message but then they left... We also had lunch with some of our English class members. They are too nice.:) We met with 강진 and 조서영s together at a BBQ resturarant. We went to the YSA activity, where they were selling things, and then went out. But because time was short, we didn't get to share the message again with them. ㅠㅠ that is one thing I lack on a mission. Time managing. I have definitely improved from before my mission but this last transfer for some reason, it has been really hard. </div>

<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
Yesterday, Sunday, was probably my favorite day. So let me just say when ever a missionary in Korea leaves we have to speak in front of the ward. Usually it is best to prepare a talk. But me, I forget. Every time. So I thought my 마지막 말씀 was going to be really bad. Hahah I prepared during sacrament but I didn't really have anything to say. I said my goodbyes during English sacrament. Talked to Soomin and sent her to class. Then I went back up to change in a 한복 (the Korean tradition dress) and I didn't think the ward was going to say anything or really notice. I didn't think they would care that I was leaving? But, right after I walk out of the bathroom, I went to the Sacrament room and the all just crowded me saying something about it. It was so cute. They were helping me fix what I didn't do right on the dress. They really appreciated that I did that. I thought it was really funny. When I finally gave my talk, I was doing good. Wasn't crying and then the nerves got to me and I couldn't think of any of my Korean. I pause to think and a old grandma member yelled at me to speak English and I just bawled haha.. not because she told me to speak english but because I think that is the first time it hit me a little bit. And lets be honest, I cry now for some reason when I bear my testimony or do anything in front poeple. It is a real problem haha. Anyways, After sacrament meeting they all run to me and give me gifts. A member even gave me 100,000 won. ( I have to give that back or to the office) But it was the thought that count. Oh and 이진영s CAME TO CHURCH!! She loved it and all the members just ate her up. They are soooo helpful!! We went to Relief Society and they loved us. Soomin on the other hand went to the children's baptism in the English ward. There was so much going on and we will be seeing her today with Pam Cho. </div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
After Church we ate with the ward and set up for the 음안 회 of a member and her relatives who plays the organ, violin, and clarinet. As we eating it started to snow. I guess in Korean tradition if it snows it is a sad day because someone is leaving. Haha that's not a joke. It was really cool though! After the concert we ate with 조서영s and her boyfriend. She is a less active we are working with who really wants to come back but because her mom is Jehovah's witness it is harder for her. I loved this day because I just had soooooooo much love for the members. I really am going to miss them. They became my family away from home. They kept telling me and made me promise that I would continue to learn Korean and I would just for them. I have been with theses members now for 1 year. And I just love them. At first I didn't understand why I was sent back but I think I was sent back to come to understand the 영등포 ward. I also felt a lot of love from them as well. I think that is what it should feel like with the relationship of members and missionaries.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
I just want to say, that this last year and half was filled with miracles big and small, struggles big and small, and my testimony which started small but has built bigger from the things I learned on my mission. I want to share 3 things that I have learned on my mission.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
1. The importance of the Spirit in our lives. I think when we have the spirit it because easier to love, to have patience, to care, to be dilligent, to be clean, overcome weaknesses, and all the other little things. The spirit can really change what goes on in church and especially what goes on in a home. </div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
2.That prayer is what makes miracles. We can't do anthing with our our Heavenly Father's help. I don't know how many times I have prayed in this last year in a half but because of it, I have a stronger relationship with my Heavenly Father and I love it. It also make me notice what an impact the atonement as in my life.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
3. Happiness. Everyone has the ability to choose to be happy or sad. We all have this great gift of agency that we take for granted. Happiness cannot come from something you buy or something that the world may tell you brings happiness. True happiness is finding that thing that you love. As members, it's the foundation we have built upon our Savior. There is soooo many people in the world looking for the happiness we have. And we can carry it. That is why we as missionaries, everyday, carry a Book of Mormon with us. That is what changes our lives. The gospel of Jesus Christ is the only way to true happiness. I think I am soooo lucky to have goodly parents and raise up in the true gospel. I also wish that I could have conversion story like many people I meet. But a conversion doesn't have to start with when you join the church but how we serve the church. Happiness is the first thing we teach about. Heavenly Father wants us to be happy so...... he gave us bodies, or families, or the Book of Mormon. What ever it may be. There is times where I was upset on my mission becasue I felt that I wasn't truly making other people's lives happier. But I don't think we see the big picture like Heavenly Father does. I am slowly learning all of these things.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
I know that this gospel is true. That because of my mission, I have changed. I wasn't bad before but I definitely have become better.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
I know that our Savior, Jesus Christ, suffered for all of us. Our sins, and sorrows so we don't have to. He is the only one who understand us. And better than we understand ourselves.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
I know that Heavenly Father and his sonJesus Christ live, and that we can become just like them.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
Our lives don't just effect just our lives but the decisions we make changes the lives of others as well. I know that I wouldn't be as happy as I am now, if I didn't serve a mission.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
I love my family and their support for me while I have served. I don't know what I would do with out them. They are my rock as well as my Savior. He has been there with me everyday on my mission and even before, I just sometimes couldn't see it.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
I love this gospel and this is the only true complete church on earth today.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
</div>
<div style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; font-family: UICTFontTextStyleTallBody; font-size: 33px;">
I love you all! I will see you on Friday.</div>

<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
This week we had transfers. I got to say bye to all my friend back in 부천 and said hello to all my old ones in 영등포. I am now on my 9th companion. Her name is Sister Tuinukuafe. But I just call her Sister Tui ㅎㅎ She is from Austrailia. She is tongan. :) We are going to have a lot of fun together. So Sister Stastny (my old companion) was her trainer and she just went home last week. I can't believe how fast time is flying. <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_960880544" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Wednesday</span></span> I hit my year mark. I am exactly how Sister Stastny was to me when she greenie broke me. This next week is going to be a little crazy. We have MLC and then we have zone training and this is my first so I don't know exactly what I am doing. Haha I sometimes feel llike I am running around like I am a headless chicken. At first things were really hard for me. I didn't want to come back to Yeongdong-po at first because of a lot of different reasons but when I went to church <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_960880545" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on Sunday</span></span> I just loved them all over again. I know this transfer is going to be a lot fun. A lot of people don't get this opportunity to go back to an area they already served in so I am going not going to take it for granted. I really excited to get some people baptized here. </div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
When I arrived her they had one investigator and I have been trying to contact her but she has reached back to me. So me and my companion are making specific goals on what we want to do and how we are going to find them. We are trying to be really specific. I just really want to show God that I want to leave this area better than the first round I left. So we are going to be working hard. And now I have a little bit of more stress (not bad stress 그냥 stress ㅎㅎ) because I want to really help the sisters in our zone, and I feel sometimes that inadequate to help them, but it is going to work out. Yesterday after church we talked with our President and he gave me a lot of advice. I love President Morrise. He really is like our Dads away from home and gives us really good advice ;) </div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
</div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
Not much has happened.. Just trying to re-adjust to everything again. </div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
I love you all! </div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
READ YOUR SCRIPTURES! I am serious! They are great. :) </div>
<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
I pray for you all, you better be feeding the missionaries there! ㅎㅎ</div>

Hello family!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY! I just want to do a shout out to the best dad in the whole world!! I have seen now a lot of fathers and you are definitely by far the best! I never realized how much I have learned from my dad ( and my mother of course haha) but I am so grateful for his example! I know he's a bit emotional now days, but he still the best person to talk to when you having the toughest time. I love knowing that after my mission is over that I am able to come back to the greatest dad (and family, I don't want to offend anyone ㅋㅋ) But thank you for always supporting me and helping me!~ LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week was a really good one! We got transfer calls and I am staying with 이혜현 자매님 I really enjoy serving with her. She is a really good example and we are going to do amazing things this transfer. This is the first transfer that I wont be dropping off or picking up someone! Crazy, right!? :)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Some highlights of this last week. So this week we really want to see some miracles so we made some goals:</div>
<div>
Be examples</div>
<div>
Role play our testimonies every morning so that we can do it on the streets</div>
<div>
Fast</div>
<div>
Strictly be Obedient</div>
<div>
Set goals from our President's email says</div>
<div>
Use time wisely</div>
<div>
Exercise our Faith</div>
<div>
Pray to be able to find 3 new investigators</div>
<div>
Plan lessons by Spirit</div>
<div>
Show more Charity</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So we tried to use this week and it didn't go has well as planned so for this week we made alarms and reminders so that we are able to do it this week. So if you could pray specificly for these thing haha that would be wonderful! </div>
<div>
We didn't see a lot of miracles but God is always helping us even when maybe we don't deserve it. </div>
<div>
We are making a new English Class just for Young people. We went sticker boarding 3 times now and received over 100 numbers so we are spending a lot of time cantacting these people. Hopefully we will see some miracles from this new class. Elder Ballard as made goals for missionaries. That we baptize more people from ages 17-25 and talk to 10 people a day. Both these things are really hard. Especially here in Korea. As we work towards what an apostle as asked us to do I believe we will see more miracles :)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Funny story of the week!</div>
<div>
Okay so we had to go to a different area because we had to do Tip pass off ( you have to go to our STLs and teach them lessons in Korean and memorize scriptures and vocabulary)</div>
<div>
So in order to get to their church you go through a 시장 or an outside market. And as missionaries we are always smiling at people. On our way back home you have to go through the same market. And again we are 인사ing. We get across the street to go wait for our bus and a man comes and taps my companion shoulder. I couldn't understand all of it but I got the jist of what he was saying. This is what happened:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
"Uhh, HI!"</div>
<div>
"Hello!"</div>
<div>
"You are Korean right?"</div>
<div>
" Yes"</div>
<div>
"I don't know how to say this but... you are really pretty can I have your number?"</div>
<div>
" Since I am a missionary...."</div>
<div>
"I am Christian too"</div>
<div>
"But because I am a missionary.."</div>
<div>
"Do you have a phone?"</div>
<div>
"Uhhhh... (long awkward noise) Here is our name card?"</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As we are on the bus</div>
<div>
text message:</div>
<div>
"Hi this is the person you gave your number too. You are sooooo beautiful! When I first saw you in the market and I knew I had to get your number. And the second time you passed and you smiled at me I fell in love. Can we go out one time?" </div>
<div>
"HTBT, told him we are missionaries can't have boyfriends. We serve for a year and a half and we teach about our gospel and english. If you interested in that we can refer you to the Elders. But thank you and I know it took courage to ask for my number sorry."</div>
<div>
"Ahh I hate that. No missionaries can get married and date though! I can't wait a year and half"</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Okay it goes on much longer but now we just have to ignore him. So moral of the story is my life hasn't change and my "companions" are the ones who gets the numbers ,ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ</div>
<div>
I think it was a great way to start off her Birthday haha</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week we also went to a sushi buffet which was AMAZING! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I also learned that I have been studying wrong this whole time! I don't know how to study and I think I am realizing what it means to study. I haven't really been trying is what I noticed. I have been complaining that it stinks but it was really because I wasn't doing anything more. I now feel quilty that I was begging Heavenly Father that he would give me the gift of tongues but I that was selfish of me. We can't ask things if we don't exercise our faith or just do something about it. God wants to help if we will work for it! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I love you all! I hope that everything is going great over there in the Mother Land. I miss you all!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
LOVE,</div>
<div>
Sister Leavitt</div>

Oh yeah and one of the pictures is of my companion cleaning our AC ( not alot missionaries have that ㅋㅋ) It was sooo moldy!!</div>

Everyone!!</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So
I will be skyping tomorrow so I will keep this email pretty short. :)</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This
week was amazing. It was Kid's and Parent's Day this last week
so a lot of people we out and around, buying each other flowers and
spending time with family. But since we are new these past few
days we haven't had anyone to teach. We had just been visiting a Less
Active which we love but we can visit her everyday all day so we
really needed some investigators. Before my companion leaves this
week she had a goal to get me one investigator. And we have 2 and 3
potential. It was a HUGE miracle. One of our investigators literally
came after the church services yesterday and ask the Bishop what the
church was and that she wanted to join the church because she heard
it was so great! So we have a golden investigator all ready for
lessons. We have a French investigator that the Elders ran into on
the street and 소개ed
to us. She says I don't want to join your church but I wanted to go
straight to the source to find out what Mormons are because I have
heard a lot of things because there are so many lies and steoreo
types. And she thought the elders were so friendly and open minded.
She loves our message we share with her and she tell us we have this
light and peace about us. She came to on of our Member's Baptism
yesterday. She thought it was sooo different. (and Korean Baptism are
slightly different than the ones I have seen at home, but the same
principles) And she loved the feeling that she got from all the
Koreans even though she didn't quite understand them. Sister
Mortensen translated for her. My companion is BOSS at Korean. So
anyways, we have a lot of potential investigators that are coming
with us to the BYU Wind Orchestra that is coming to our Area. So that
is truly a blessing. We are meeting with a lot of our less
actives we is finally meeting with us. Last week we met with a
Japanese women and gave her a Japanese BOM and she is the cutest
thing! Her kids were adorable. She married a Korean and her English
is fly so we are trying to ease slowly with her because she "wants
to do it by herself" but pray that her schedule will
open up. Oh, also another really amazing miracle. So there is
this thing called 가가호호
I am not
sure what it is called in English.. knocking on doors? Anyways, we
started at the top of this apartment building and we knock on doors
and try to 소개
or
introduce or church and our English Program. People were soo
mean. We had another appointment at a members soon so we were going
to just give up but we decided to do just one more floor. So we
look out the balcony and we decided to do floor number 9. It was
4 floors down. We had no idea why but we decided to go. We got
in the elevator and prayed to find someone who would be nice and
talk to us and be intrested in either English or the Gospel. So
we step out and we see a women she is taking our the trash. We
thought she was our miracle but she took our name card and went on
our way. It was getting close to leave but we decided to knock
on a few doors. A lot opened to us but soon closed on us. We were
going to give up so we decided to just one more door. We knock on it.
She opens the door and puts the door stopper down. And just
listens to us. She was sooo nice. We got exchange numbers and
she was going to let us in right then but she wanted to clean up a
little and we have a returning appointment. It was amazing! All she
did was listen and she was not only interested in English but Gospel
too. So this Thursday we will start our 30/30 program with
her. And one more miracle I will share. This last Tuesday we
were walking around finding less actives and one of our appointment
canceled so we were just 전도ing
or proselyting until our next 식사
or meal
appointment. And we walked by a Alpha (which is a craft
store, Koreans love their 문구s)
and she randomly started walking in but realized that she shouldn't
go in there because it would take away from proselyting time. I don't
know why I did this but just pushed her in! So we were in there for
not a specific reason and she said we needed to talk to people and
this lady comes up to her and ask where our church is. Apparently she
has been trying to look for a church because some Elders gave her a
name card and she doesn't have a phone to find it. So asked us if we
could show her on Sunday and meet her at the 역
or
station. She was an older lady so when Sunday came we think she
forgot because she didn't show. But she know has our number and
hopefully again soon we can meet her. I just thought that was amazing
because we didn't need to buy anything but we both felt prompted to
go into this store.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I
love my mission. I am learning that God blesses us with many
miracles. It is not until we count the little things when we begin to
recognize the things He does for us everyday. I think I love that the
most as a missionary. Not a lot of baptism goes on in Korea but God
does bless all his people in his time. I am soooo excited to talk
with you all again. Don't quiz my Korean because yeah... I am still
getting there.</span></span></div>

Korean. And I guess I am Senior now. I am not really sure what it
means but I am a little nervous but I have met this Korean. She is
super cute and super fly at English but I am going try my best to
only speak Korean to her. :) I will tell you more tomorrow</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Hello
everyone!!!</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Okay
this week was so much fun.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">So
because my companion is leaving we got to go to her Greenie area to
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">소개 </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">or
refer a investigator to the other sisters so us 4 and this
investigator went hiking up this huge mountain where you can see all
of Korea. It was sick. Korea is sooo pretty it is insane. Lately,
everything is so green and it is starting to get really hot and
humid!! AHH!!</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Anywho,
the next day we had Zone Conference. It was raining and we went on
this island on the Han River and had our training there. It was
really fun. I love getting to see our Mission President and his wife.
They are seriously the best. They really are like your parents away
from home. So that was really fun. So President Morrise has been
encouraging everyone to do this "7 minute work-out" because
he really has been stressing about exercising in the morning. So at
Zone Conference we had the chance to do it. And if we bet him we got
a sticker and we go on the board and if we just "participated"
we got a sticker. Anyways, he is a 60 something year old man... How
hard can it be do all these work outs in 7 minutes and beat him?....
Yeah, that was super hard. I haven't worked "hard core" for
a long time. The old man beat me :) He pretty much beat every single
one of us. It was soo funny. And what the best part was that the
sticker was a picture of his face. I definitely put that in my PMG
next to the work out section. :)</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">This
week was just a day full of traveling. The next day we spent 4 hours
traveling to do a Pass off with our APs. We also visit a bunch of
people. We even have a new potential investigator. She is Japanese
and was super sweet. She wants to read the Book of Mormon but wants
to do it by herself and she is really busy so we are hoping that
we can continue to contact her as much as possible. Also during
weekly planning we made a lot of appointments this week. So this week
should be a crazy one! We will have to baptisms. (One a member and
one is the Elder's investigator) and we have transfer
call...ALREADY!! I can't belive I am going to be getting a new
companion soon! I think that is crazy! Oh and our area just got
bigger. So now we have half of 2 other areas so Bucheon just got
bigger. We already have 150 members and it will go up to about
170-180. So I need all your prayers for when my companion goes home I
will be able to handle all of this..</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Hey
family!!</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Weeks
are going by soooo fast!! LIke I feel like I just emailed you! So
let's see what happened this week. Not too much. It is really hard to
find people to teach so just a lot of walking and this weeks we saw a
Korean women with a Georgia accent. It was seriously the coolest
thing I had ever heard because it was like a Korean Southern accent.
Anywho, yeah we meet a lot of people. I love getting to know
people now. Sometimes it is hard but it is fun. And a lot of people
don't "have time to meet" but really in realitly Korean
people really are just sooo busy. The only funny thing is when you
are at a 4-way intersection and we tried to talk to someone and they
say that they "I am busy, don't you know!" and they are
standing waiting for the looong red light to turn green. People just
really don't like </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">선교사들
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">(missionaries)
becaue there are sooooooo many here! We have taught like 3 now. You
will see on the streets people bible bashing and it is just not good.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">One
good thing that we did this week is we opened a HUGE new Stake Center
in </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">인천
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Incheon.
It is 4 floors with a balcony! Like it is way bigger than my last
building.( Just ask dad how big that is </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">ㅎㅎ</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">)
So we did service, picked up trash around the building and then we
had a big open house for it and did some tours. This building is
super Americanized it is crazy!! It is weird. My building right now
is much smaller and Koreanized and it fits 150 members and now its
going to be about 170 members because our ward just got bigger this
last week. So anyways, moral of the story is the church is true. And
no matter where you are things need to have the same importance and
we live the same gospel. Just remember that.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Uhh...
yeah... So after our Stake Conference we went home and started
planning for the next week. It was about 8:30 and our Bishop calls
and says meet at E-Mart in 15 minutes. So we quickly run over there
because it is our bishop and he has a grocery cart and he says,"
I don't like shopping so lets do this fast. We want to feed you and
we haven't bought you rice in the past 4 weeks." We were so
confused. We did not want anyone to have to pay for us. So we thought
we were just getting rice but then he starts thowing in the cart;
meet, pizza, oranges, apples, snacks, tuna, rice, </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">고추장</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">,
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">깅</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">,
and just a whole bunch of stuff. He spent about 163 dollars on us. I
about cried. I was so happy. We were running out of money and we
still have a week left. It just was the nicest thing. And our Bishop
is so busy with his work that he took time to do that. I just
love him. He is the sweetest. Thats one thing I love about
Korean. They all will take care of you. The just have the most
compassionate heart (unless they really just don't like missionaries)
but I haven't met too many unkind people. I think the world should be
more focus on the things that other people need and not always on
ourselves. That is exactly our Savior thinks. I don't think he would
ever take back what he did in Gethsamene because he wasn't thinking
about himself but he thought about everyone that had lived and would
live. We are here to help others and our selves come back unto
Christ. So this week please go out of your way to do something for
someone else. Even just the little bit of grocercies for us would
have made us happy.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Had
a really good week. Last week we went to the zoo! is was sooo much
fun. We were suppose to go with our Zone but we couldn't find them so
it was us and our District Leader and his companion. The zoo was
extremely fun! We also got a new investigator. She is not in our area
but she golden. But the only problem is that stopped calling us. We
are hoping it's just her phone.</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Anywho,
Work here is going slowly but surely. This next week we are meeting a
bunch of members and even a Less-Active wants to come to Stake
Conference with us!! We are stoked. So At this stake conference. They
are combining wards and all that great stuff so a lot will be
changing. The Stake Center (which is in </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">인천</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">)
is HUGE!! It is 4 floors. 2 sacrament rooms. A bunch of rooms and
even has a balcony. The best part about it, it is right on the
intersection and right outside of a subway exit. People are going to
swarming in. Korean culture is that they like anything that is super
close. Sometimes they will even convert because the church is close
:/ but anyways, this will be a good thing!!</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">The
past few days have been raining. I haven't taken off my jacket for a
while. So it is not too warm yet. I think Heavenly Father has been
listening to my cries. I am soooo afraid for summer it is crazy!! I
wish that it would stay like this for the rest of the time :)</span></span></div>

lot of our time doing finding. WE walk and walk and walk AND walk. We
are like the prioneer children. Man, these joke are good. Missionary

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Hey
familly!!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">This
week I have like no time to write a whole email again. I know sad.
With our zone we are going to the zoo and it about 2 hours away so we
can't stay long too long. (Yeah we were going to go last week but we
took the wrong subway so we went to China Town instead)</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">We
watched conference this week. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! I really
loved it! I will say the Saturday session didn't apply much too me
because it was about marriage and family but I did still get a little
out of it for my and my companion :)</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">I
really liked how the Sunday session was based on the how the simple
basic truths is all we need to focus on in the church. It is good to
know all the details but just like me as missionary, we only teach
the simple things because that is when the Holy Ghost speaks to us
the best. And that is the answer I needed. This last transfer it has
been really hard for me to teach. I always want to get into things
that aren't really necessary for people to hear... I think that is
why I was sent to Korea to help people but not to overbear them but
because of my small knowledge of Korean I can't expound on too much.
:) I also learn that we each must have a testimony of the
atonement and what it means to us. I have had a pretty decently good
easy life. I never have had to use it as much as I have on my
mission. I never realized how much "disobedient" I was
before my mission. The point of the atonement is so that we can
become like God. That is why the fall happened. Christ literally
broke the bands of death that we are just in a free fall. Because we
can be forgiven and now that we know good and evil we can one day
return to the presence of our Heavenly Father. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Because
we have been white washing I have not had any lessons this week. We
had one and today (actually while I have been writing this email) I
realized that the things that I learned in Conference, must be
applied in my mission. I think the Lord needs me to be prepared with
my lesson plans and my simple doctrine so that when my companion
leaves this transfer I will be able to take over. I have not been
able to teach at all! It is crazy. I really know that the Lord is
blessing me each day that I am able to teach because it really isn't
not me doing it. :) So if you could pray that I can learn how to
teach this week. I would love it so that I can be more prepared for
people. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">In
my first transfer my Zone Leader once told me that if I am prepared
with just one lesson plan that God will give me someone who needs to
hear exactly what I prepared for, nothing more. That can be applied
to life. We must all have our personal testimony of the simple
doctrine so that when we are in certain situations that we maybe able
to overcome them or help someone else understand more fully.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">I
really do love my mission. My companion is awesome. I haven't really
told you much about her yet. She is flawless in Korean. I kill her
this transfer. She is an amazing singer and love soccer. She is
almost as weird as me and she does a killer Brian Regan
impersonation. She is not trucky at all. She is one of the hardest
working missionaries out there and she is great at talking to people.
Which I am not. I thought I was until I became companions with her ;)</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">So
I love you all. Remember who you are and what you stand for. Gain
that testimony for yourself; don't rely on others. </span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">I
love and miss you all sooo much!! Be safe! </span></span></div>

I got a new companion. Her name is Sister Mortensen. She is the
nicest ever. She loves sports and she is an amazing singer. She dies
this next transfer. So I will say that I will probably get the most
companions in our whole mission. Right now she is my 6th.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Because
we are white washing/ re-opening an area we don't know anything about
it. We have to find a lot on our own. We are meeting with the girl
name </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">유리
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">yu lee.
She is really different and everytime we try to teach her she ends up
like teaching us about her religion and shows us pictures of demons.
So it is really weird. Anywho.. that is the only person we have met
so far.</span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">FAMMMMMIIIILLLY!</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Okay
this week went by so fast! So to start off the week we did a lot of
searching. We have been running down on investigators and this month
we are doing a 40 days of fasting for new investigators. But we
didn't seem to find any. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">We
did however, get to see Valeria. She is our Russian investigator. She
is the funniest/bluntest person. She has been investigating for maybe
over a year and some things are just really hard for her to grasp.
She is though probably more faithful than a lot of members. Anyways,
we watched Legacy with her. THE GREATEST DECISION EVER!! hahah she
was like the commentary behind it. I t was really good. She learned a
lot from the cheesy movie. But we love spending time with her and I
will definitely be friends with her after my mission.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Okay
Tuesday was the worst day.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">I
woke up at 6:30 and began by exercise. We had already done the full
30 minutes of exercise and I decided to do a little extra and I was
doing sit ups and my hands where above my head and I guess I might of
done it too fast because I ripped my back. It hurt sooo bad. At first
(just like my ankle incident) it didn't hurt but when I moved it was
this horrible pain. I just fell to the floor on my stomach. the rest
of the day for the next 24 hours I was switching back and forth from
stomach to back laying on my bed. Every once in awhile We would put a
hot bad then some frozen vegetables on it. It was thee worst. For the
next couple of days it would hurt. But the strangest thing was that
as I was on my stomach with the ice pack on my back. I prayed. It
wasn't a long prayer but I just didn't want to have to go to the
hospital. (they don't have clinics) And on my left side of my back I
could feel this tingly feeling, like I could feel it being healed.
The next morning that side of my back didn't hurt. I will say though,
that my left side of my back still hurts every once in awhile but
that was a miracle. I didn't think I was going to be able to walk for
a few days but look I walked to the PC baong. I am fine :) </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">This
week we had a lot of good lessons. Everyone seems to progressing
really well. Our 10 year old investigator got her answered about the
Book of Mormon. She said that when she prayed about it she felt
warmth and really good about it. So we are excited about that :)</span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Saturday,
I went on exchanges with my Sister Training Leader. She came to our
area with my other 2 companions and I went to her area with her
Korean greenie. It was sooo much fun! I just want to share one funny
story that happened while we were there. So we went to a potential
investigators house. She fed us </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">순대
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">which is
this sausage that is meaty and fatty. It is the Pig Intestine. This
was my first time eating it. In Korea it is very very popular. I
thought I was going to hate it because usually is is running and
bloody but mine was actually really good. So after we ate sundey. (
don't know how to spell that in English) We were talking to her and I
mentioned what I did to my back earlier that week. She then runs to
her bathroom grabs her toothbrush pull up my shirts (garments and
all) and places her toothbrush on my back. I had no idea what she was
doing. I was afraid at first. She then tell us that her toothbrush
has a lazer on it and it can cure anything. She tell us all these
experiences that she has had with the toothbrush and I was so
confused. But to make her happy I turned on the lazer and put it on
my back. Koreans have a cure and a solution for everything! hahahaha</span></span></div>

</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">(Bucheon)
I have been in the Seoul city area my whole mission and now I am
going a little farther out that isn't too city like (at least that is
what I have heard) I am really going to miss my companions though!
They are so much fun! When we got our transfer call they first told
me I was going to be companions with Sister Holt and I was freaking
out! I went to tell her but the APs actually messed up, I guess
LeVitre and Leavitt are too similar so I spent like 20 minutes
thinking I would be companions with my best friend in the mission but
they had to call us all back and fix the mistake...hahaha dang it!
Soo close.;)</span></span></span></div>

my commitment to you all is to spread the word about the new Mormon
Message. It is about His Resurrection. It is an amazing video.
Remember why we celebrate Easter. #BecauseHeLives The church is going
all out this year with it. We have to hand out a lot of things to get
people to watch it. Next Sunday, all over Youtube it will be
advertised. It is going to be the homepage. So spread the word. Make
our lives easier as missionaries. ;) </span></span></span></div>

FAMILY!!</span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Last
week we went to a </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">목욕탕
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">last
week. It was soooo refreshing. Lately I have had some really bad back
problems. Like I have been aching in the weirdest spots on my back. I
haven't ever had back pains before but I go to this "bathe
house" and it was the most relaxing thing and I even talked to
people and handed out name card. One lady even bought me a water.
Koreans are soo nice. Anyways. Ohhh.. yeah yesterday we went to one
of our English member's house to eat and share a small message with 3
other families. One of the mothers was talking about how she gives
her kids pass along cards and they pass them out like crazy. And I
was just curious. Do you all do that? Because it would make
missionaries lives SOOOOOO much easier if you passed out the cards to
people you know. It is more awkward for us to hand it out to people
we absolutely don't know rather than members handing it out to
friends. People see your example and that is really what bring people
into this gospel. So my commitment to you is to hand out 3 name cards
or pass along cards to your friends or co-workers. I know you are in
Utah but find someone that stands out that really needs the gospel. </span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">One
thing we did have this last week was the Relief Society Establishment
Meeting. Our Stake did these dances and singing things it is sooo
fun! Korean go all out for these things. I will send you a video our
Ward did handbells and 2 women sang the OLDEST Korean song out there
is was fun!! L)</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Well
time is flying by sooooo fast! We get transfer calls in like 2 weeks.
I think I will be leaving YeongDong-Po ( I don't know how to spell it
in English) </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">FAAAAMMMIIILLLLYYY!!!</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Okay
haha let me just tell you what I ate last week. (weird way to start
off an email) </span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">So
we were at one of our member's house. This is the old grandma I have
told you about. </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">임복심
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">she is
thee funniest old person. She feeds us very traditional Korean food.
And as we are eating a whole bunch of food her and Sister Stastny
started talking about Sting Rays. Sister Stastny had heard that they
smell like pee and she wanted to know, so </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">임복심
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">pulls out
of her fridge this frozen Sting Ray meat. She smelt it and there
wasn't a smell so being a nice old grandma she wanted us to feed this
to us too. She throws it in the microwave and within seconds, as it
is heating, you could smell it. It smelt like ammonia. Like it was
the strongest smell I have smelt here. She also grabs out of the
fridge some HOT sauce to dip it in. So being Korean she takes one of
these raw fermented drenches it in this sauce and throws it in her
mouth like NBD. So Sister Stastny was like yeah I want to do that. So
she does it first and she didn't mind it but she said it stung...
then Sister Nebeker tries it and her face said it all. She did not
like it, She looks at me and says, " I can't feel my tongue."
haha I was terrified. They both looked at </span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">임복심
</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">and said
"</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">맛어요</span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">!"
So then the Grandma looks at me and tell me to eat it. If a Korean
tell you to eat something, it is really respectful to eat it. So I
took the sting ray dunked it in some sauce and ate it. AHHH it
seriously stings. The smells goes throughout your whole body. Like I
really just at raw poisonous fermented sting ray and I did not like
it. Here in Korea Sting Rays are super expensive and no one really
likes them except the older generation, so we took our last
opportunity to eat it and I hope it is the last. haha It was fun. So
we had so much food and the member then gave us rice. Rice is soooo
filling and you have to eat it all. Which I usually can. But I
couldn't finish it. When she was watching her Korean Drama I rolled
it in a ball and hid it in my clothes. I didn't want to offend her
and I really wanted to eat it all so that was the last option I knew
to do. #lifeinKorea</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">So
yeah Korea is amazing. My Korean on the other hand is getting better
but I am not even close to being fluent. I can understand maybe 30%
now. That's a lot for me. </span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">.
But I am teaching about 40-50% of lessons now so that is really good.
Don't be surprised when I come home and I still don't know Korean. It
is hard.</span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;">Scripture

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hello
FAMILY!!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">How
are you all!! I miss you! Not enough to come home but I miss you and
love you all! I really want to here about how you all are doing! I
should be sending 2 packages in a short time or maybe just one big
one.. we will see. Anyways, this week was soooo interesting! haha I
will start on Tuesday.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Tuesday:</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">We
did the normal, studied for 3 hours and had lunch. We then had a
lesson with one of our recent converts. </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">박준회
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">(Park
June He) She is the nicest smartest woman I have met. So We had a
nice conversation and asked her about her week. She broke down
telling us about her hard time with life and family. We then talked
to her a little bit about how we can overcome problems and she just
really wants to know what to do with her life and what path to take.
So we then taught her about patriarchal blessings. Patriarchal
blessings are really such a reward that we can have personal
scriptures to help us make decisions and to guide us through out our
lives. in Korean this is kind of a difficult subject to talk about
and we had a little miracle. The institute coordinator had been
walking in and out of our lesson to get things ready for whatever she
was doing. Then she asked if she could help us out a little bit. We
appreciated it so much. She then went on to tell her the importance
of patriarchal blessings and she can used and receive it. The spirit
was really strong and now she is getting hers this week! So I
encourage everyone to get it. I have read mine at least once a week.
It really does help to grow and to strengthen you spiritually.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">But...
this wasn't the "interesting" part I was talking about.
So... after the lesson </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">박준회
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">&
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">김승하
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">came
with us to a member's house right after the lesson. We head out and I
got lost. I went the total opposite way and we had to figure out
which way we needed to go. When we finally got to the subway station
that we need to be at to transfer. ( </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">당산</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">)
We saw these deaf Korean people walk passed. All 5 of us had been
taking Sign Language classes at church and we knew how to introduce
ourselves so we kept thought about it and I had a feel like we needed
to try to talk to them. So me and </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">긴승하
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">back
and I started the conversation with them. "Hi, what is your
name?" "My name is.." "I am learning sign
language.." "Want to come to our class" And at this
time I was trying to find the Korean Sign language missionaries'
number ( I couldn't find it for the life of me) and I turn to my
companions and I see Sister Stastny with this weird look on her face.
And apparently as I was trying to talk to the deaf men another man
came up to Sister Nebeker and stroked her arm and was talking so to
her face. He was a drunken man who wanted to know why we knew sign
language and then started talking about a bunch of weird things. </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">박준회
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">then
tries to have Sister Stastny get us out of the situation and she was
like you know Korean and you are 30, get us out of this. We
eventually had to like tell him we have a appointment. As we were
quickly walking away from him he like yells at us to have us eat with
him. We said no but he kept insisting so we just ran. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">We
get on the subway that took us to the stop where our member lives.
There is literally two subways you can take. And there are sooo many
stops. ( I will explain later why this is important) So finally get
to our member's small house with us 5 and taught about hope and
listened to her talk about life because she just really needs someone
to listen to. Anyways, on our way back from our 45 min lesson (so it
has been an hour since we were at the station) and we saw the same
man again!!! He didn't see us but we ran sooo hard to the subway and
this is where our miracle kicks in. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Like
I said there are 2 subways. One is an express which misses some stops
and one is a normal one. So the first thing that was weird was out of
all the stops we saw the same man twice but... as we were waiting for
the subway to get back we were deciding on which one to take. At the
moment I didn't care which one we needed to take. So we decide
obviously,which ever one came first. The normal subway came up first
and we were going to hop on it and that is when I decided... no, we
should take the express one. As I said that the express one pulls up
and we were caught in trying to pick a train and I was firm and said
we need to take the express train.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">They
were going to argue. The express train doesn't take as long to get to
our destination so we hopped on. The subway was a little packed so I
was standing really close to this other woman and being a missionary
you look at all your surroundings to pick up on something to say to
them. This lady was on her phone (like anyone else) but I decided to
try to read what she was reading. SHE WAS READING HER BIBLE! I like
nudged my companions and our members and told them "Hey, she is
reading her bible.What do I do!?" I then looked again to make
sure and she was even reading in Mark! So I was nervous as ever so
Sister Nebeker took it like a man and just started the conversation
about the Bible. Then our members started talking to her. We thought
we would have to end our conversation with her but she got off at our
stop. We talked about who were are and our members bore testimony. We
exchange numbers and got an appointment. Just like that we have a new
investigator and a fellow-shipper. Our member is even staying in
contact with her! It was such a blessing!! </span></span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Saturday:</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
am going to try to make this one shorter. So we went our with a
member and her non-member husband to dinner. They took us to a NICE
restaurant. Very Americanized. So at this restaurant it was as much
wine and beer you can drink. Because he husband isn't a member he had
about 3 to 4 glasses of wine by the time we went to share our
message. It was actually kind of funny. We started to teach about
Matt: 3:13-15 and how we can give Christ our burdens. He then talked
about how he doesn't know if there is a God. How miracles are of the
devil. But then would contradict himself by saying there are good. It
just was interesting. And every time I spoke he questioned something.
Like they were bad questions, they were actually really good. But I
didn't have enough time to even explain what I was testifying about.
But then she bore her testimony. And even in this busy loud
restaurant I could feel the spirit so strong. You can tell she has
just been going through a hard a time. Sometimes we plan a lesson who
we think needs it but can end up being for someone completely
different. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">On
the way home, we were already going to be late getting to home (we
have to be there by 9 or if we teach a lesson 9:30) and we were out
of our area but still in our zone. So from Gangnam to Yeongdung-po it
takes about thirty minutes and it was 8:45. But... we didn't get on
the right subway. We went accidentally on the other side and as we
sate there for about 20 mins Sister Stastny looks out the river and
sees the river. She looks to me in a panic and says,"AHHH we are
crossing the river, we have to get off NOW!" So then we had to
call President about it. We were scared out of our minds. He handled
it so calmly. We eventually got back to our house though around
9;45~10:00 </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hello
Family & Friends</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So
this week went really slow because it was the Chinese New Year and it
is Huge here. So now one was out in the street and everything was
closed until today. So we didn't get to see or meet a lot of people.
But.... We had another baptism!! WHOOT WHOOT!!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">We
have been meeting </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">조하니
자매님 </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">(sister
Jo Ha Ni) for only a few weeks now. She was a referral from another
missionary because she moved into our area. So all we had to do was
teach the 5th lesson and get a baptism date. She has been pushing
back the date with the other missionaries because she really doesn't
want to break any commandments after she gets baptized. When she was
worried about stuff like that I knew she was ready. She really lives
a good life and wants to do good. She just wanted to make sure
everything was for sure before she went through with it. She prayed
and prayed and she finally decided on this date. Me and my companion
weeks early made a goal to have her get baptized on this date but we
never reach out the invitation for this day. We kept asking to do it
few weeks earlier but then she finally texted us the date she had
prayed about and it was the day our original goal was. So that was
really cool. She is a super sweet girl. I am excited for her journey
ahead. I felt the spirit strong in her baptism. It reminded me of my
own baptism. I am living my baptismal covenants everyday. Remembering
the promises we made with our Heavenly Father can really make this
easier in life. Just live as the Savior would. I am slowly learning
this. Sometimes it is really hard to do this. I want to be my crazy
immature self but I am learning that I must act as the Savior would
but still have my own personality. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So
as you can see from the picture, I also got a new companion. This is
my 3rd three some since I have been in country. She is my 5th
companion. That is more than a lot of people who are older than me in
the mission. But she is super nice. Her name is Sister Nebeker. She
is from Salt Lake. She has been out for 9 months. She is the cutest
nicest thing ever. She is 22 and has done A LOT before her mission
like went to China to be an English teacher. Us 3 are working really
well together. I am excited to see what we can do.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Also
this week we had Zone Activity. Because no one could teach because
everyone was celebrating the New Year, we all went hiking and watched
"Meet the Mormons". I never even knew they had this movie
in theaters. (you all should see it, it is way good!) We had our zone
training on the mountain looking out at Korea. Well you couldn't
really see Korea but you could see something that they were building
and just a lot of country so it was really pretty. We called it our
"Sermon on the Mount." (but not in a disrespectful way) </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The
rest of the week was pretty boring. Life is good. Korean is hard.
Companions are awesome. I love my mission!!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Everyone
be safe. Go to church, read your scriptures, say your prayers, and go
to the temple.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
LOVE YOU ALL AND MISS YOU! I pray for each one of you! Have an
awesome week!</span></span></span></div>

</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">가족</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">,

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Happy
Late Valentine's Day (for missionaries this day is really weird haha)</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So
this week was too eventful. We got our transfer calls yesterday. Me
and Sister Stastny are staying together and...... We are getting
another companion!! I am in a 3 some AGAIN!! So this is my 4th
transfer here in Yeongdung-po and This is my 3rd three some. Hahah I
have had more companions than a lot of people in our mission. But it
will be fun. We really needed it because we are in charge of two
wards. So this week is </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">솔날
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">(I
am not sure I spelled that right) It is the Korean New Year. So
everyone here goes home to their families and the just like eat all
day for 3 days. It is bigger than Christmas here. So we are going to
have a Zone Activity and go hiking and watch Meet the Mormons. So it
should be a really fun day. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This
week we spent a lot of time with one of young woman and ( ahhh I
can't concentrate right now someone is smoking indoors and my head
hurts. *picture this* I have my shirt up covering my nose and I smell
like one of the Grandmas here, people smoke here all the time,
sometimes we get a lot in our apartment from our next door neighbor
through the vents. Smoking is not good for you. Spread the word....
AHH IT SOO BAD) Anyways, this young women really wants to become a
missionary and she has been working with us. It is really fun to see
her grow when she works and teaches with us. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
have been praying and been hearing a lot about this lately but we all
need to be member missionaries. We just need that desire to want to
bring others unto Christ. But we first but have our own desires to
come unto him as well. That means: Reading our scriptures EVERYDAY
and praying and going to church and actually listening. I have been
learning something new everyday here on my mission. I have been
praying for you all the have missionary opportunities even if that is
to our own families. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
want you all to read the Book of Mormon slowly and really understand
what it is saying. I always just read it but didn't understand it.
Many people say it is hard but it really isn't if you are studying
out the words that they are saying. I find the Book of Mormon to
actually be quite entertaining.. reallly! It is interesting and there
are things I didn't even know existed in it. Just as I keep telling
you this... The Book of Mormon is true and I really want you all to
have a DESIRE to read it.. Start from the beginning and I am going to
ask you again next week where you are :)</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
just really want you all to have the desire to improve yourselves. I
read today A LOT about desire. Desire leads us to FAITH which leads
us to REPENTANCE which leads us to SALVATION. I promis no matter what
you are going through and even if you aren't going through anything
it will enrich and bless your life. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Okay
that is my thought for the week. I really believe this... So family
please do this. We can't waste time here on Earth! </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Ohh...

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">HEY
FAM!!!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This
week was a really funny one. I wouldn't really consider it the best
but you'll see has I write my letter. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hahaha
okay so last Monday wasn't really P-day because we have Temple day
this week so we have P-day on Thursday but we still get to email..
anyways,</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Last
week we met with this really old lady </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">임복심
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">She
is serioulsy the funniest old thing. So in Korea the culture is that
all the old people don't work but how they receive money is that they
collect trash and they recycle it. Like I told you before they don't
have normal trash her.. everything is recyclable. Like there isn't
trash cans, there are certain areas for plastic, paper, cans, foil,
food, ect. So we had a meeting to met with her and she was just
picking up trash and like I don't even know how to explain it... just
being an old person. So we help her a little bit going to each house
and picking up there beer cans and that sort of thing. When we first
walk into her house there is food drying everywhere. That is how lots
of old Korean like their food is dried. So we get in there and she
feed us her homemade potoatoes and kimichi and this weird fish soup
that I still don't like. It is just like the whole fish is sitting in
a bowl of random stuff found in Korea. Anyways as we start finishing
up on our dinner she turns on her TV to her Korean Soap opera. Korean
LOVE their soap operas. Like they eat kimichi and watch soap operas.
So she is sitting in her room and laughing and talking to herself. We
then join her in her bedroom. (That usually where we always teach is
on the beds. Yeah a little weird but it is culture.) So we begin to
teach her our message but she doesn't turn the TV off and you can't
really tell and older person what do to in Korea so we let it play.
Then as we are teaching she was like I know English and starts doing
alphebet. "ABCEGH" we were like you are missing some
letters. And she like no.. I don't think so. (I don't know how to
translate that in english) So then we move on to numbers and she goes
"1234567910" haha we were like you are missing "par"
and she was like no.. But the funny thing is that numbers are
universal so anyways... Old people are just funny. And because it
warming up they are starting to work our more outside and it is the
cutest thing. They get all the old people together in a circle at the
park and raise and low their hands to ooooollllldddd Korean music...
Ahh they are so cute. I will have to show you a video later.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">WE
HAD A BAPTISM!! WHoo! Okay so this girl has been taught for the past
year and she has gone through a lot of hard times and her mom
wouldn't allow her to get baptized. So she finally got permission
from her and we got the papers signed. She went through 5 interviews
and finally got passed because she has just gone through a lot of
hard times. So anyways, she finally got baptized yesterday. The funny
thing is, so you know how they change into there baptism clothes and
then come back and they do the program and the baptism is last. So
what happened was that we went with her to go get changed and we were
waiting there for a while until she was done and she says (in Korean)
" Can I enter?" We thought she said "Can I return"
which sounds really close to each other and we like of course like
yeah come. And then she never came out and we called her name and
there wasn't an answer. We open the doors to the font and she is just
sitting there like okay I am ready someone baptize me. hahahaha it
was literally the funniest things. So we had to find a new suit and
get her all changed. She looked so pretty in her baptism dress.
Reminded me of my own baptism. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
just love Korea and the people here. Language is still hard. I don't
know much. I hear all the time. It is not hard but it takes a long
time. Yeah... it is taking me a really long time. But if you could
keep sending me prayers to improve I would LOVE it haha</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">HELLLOOOO!!!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So
it looks like today is the Super Bowl Sunday! I am routing for anyone
that Amanda isn't so GOOO ________!!! hahaha ( read your scriptures
during commercial breaks) ;) </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So
this week was really eventful. So last P-day we went to a </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">목요탕
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">or
a bath house. That was scary let me just tell you that.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"> <span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">The
next day we had one of our investigators text us and say " Hey
when we meet today can you bring the baptismal papers?" We were
in shock. So we called her and she said she had finally got
permission from her parents to get baptized because she was under age
to do it by herself! So that was a miracle. The only thing is we are
a little afraid of her repentance. I can see she really wants to get
baptized and she has been meeting with the missionaries for a year
now. We asked her why she wants to get baptized and she said she
doesn't feel like a member. She can't go to seminary or do the things
on </span></span></span></span><a href="http://lds.org/"><span style="color: #103cc0;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><u><span style="font-weight: normal;">lds.org</span></u></span></span></span></a><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">
like members can. And then she hesitates and goes... "Oh, and
for eternal life." haha she is so cute and she really wants it.
She has had a really hard life so we are just making sure she is
completely ready. So if everything goes has plan we will have a
baptism next week!! ^^</span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Also
this week we had lessons with 5 investigators. That is a lot then
when I first got her. Here in </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">영등포
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
teach in half Korean and half English so I feel that my Korean is
progressing like it should. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">But
one of the English appointments we had was with a women name Valaria.
She is from Russia. She has been going to church for a year now but
hasn't accepted it yet. She has a rough life too and she was asking
us this week, "Why do we have to suffer if God wants us to be
happy?"</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The
next day we had a Korean lady who speaks really good english ask us
that same question. Her name is </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">김애경</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">.
Sister Kim. So let me just tell you this experience:</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">We
met with her and we walk to one of the church rooms that we are going
to teach her in. She doesn't really say anything (which is really
unusual) and she sits on the the chair, and pulls out her scriptures
to read the B.O.M with us. We usually met with her to read the
scriptures with her because she is a recent convert. After we say our
opening prayer she just started bawling. We went over to comfort her
but she didn't want any of that..(which is understandable I probably
would have done the same) and she just says. Why? Why does God to
this to him when I start to believe in him. She is having a hard
time. She starts to explain to us that she is afraid of God. She goes
to church because she doesn't want God to punish her anymore. We try
to explain that he doesn't punish us. Sometimes we go through hard
times so that we can be more experienced. We mentioned that the
mistakes, blessings, trials, and how we overcome it can help us
receive eternal life.She then says," No, I don't really believe
that. I just want to focus on my life now. I just want to be happy
now." I then felt so passionate to tell her that this life isn't
for us to just be happy. It is in a sense but we have to experience
sufferings. This life is for us to be tested to see if we can trust
God in all things, and in all places. Our faith in God through our
trials determines if we can be worthy to live with him after this
life. They will judge us according to our good works. It doesn't say
that they are going to judge us for the bad things in life. If we do
good things to overcome the bad things we can be saved. Through
Christ's loving atonement we are able to be lifted from our burdens.
I haven't felt the spirit in this lesson than I have since the MTC. I
just the love God had for this women that if she kept enduring that
she will overcome this trial. Everytime I looked down at the
scriptures in front of me that I had this impression that she really
need to read them. I haven't had a prompting so strong. Me and my
companion were both prompted to tell her that if she reads and
studies the Book of Mormon in her heart and mind (and not just
read yet) that she will be strengthened by the Lord. I even had a
thought that if she would read them for 2 weeks that what ever she
was going through would go away. She then says to us, " I don't
need to be strengthened.. its not me but them." "Is he
punishing me because I am not reading the Book of Mormon?" We
then explained to her that the things we are telling her are through
the Holy Ghost. We don't know how he will help you and why you need
to read the scriptures but in order to overcome this trial of yours
you need to do this. God works in his own time and in his own way. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This
scripture comes to mind:</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #232b2c;">”<span style="font-family: LucidaGrande;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">What
I the Lord have spoken, I have spoken, and I excuse not myself; and
though the heavens and the earth pass away, my word shall not pass
away, but shall all be fulfilled, whether by mine own voice or by the
voice of my servants, it is the same."</span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">As
missionaries, we are servants of the Lord. Here to bless the lives of
others. To invite others to come unto Christ. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This
morning as we were doing companionship study this scripture came up:</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #39599e;"> </span><span style="color: #232b2c;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Nevertheless, Jacob, my firstborn in the wilderness, thou knowest the greatness of God; and he shall consecrate thine afflictions for thy gain.</span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">After
we had this lesson, we asked a young women how she would answer this
question. She said in her funny but okay english, "No
pain; No gain." That is so true. Without experiencing hardship
we would never know what true happiness is. In 2 Nephi 2:2 Lehi tells
his sons that they have bared much afflictions but because they have
experienced theses things God with bless them for their gain. So I
know that if anyone is going through hard times. Only through
Christ's atonement and Heavenly Father's love for us that we can
overcome it. There is no other way. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Fear
God; not man</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">God
will bless you! </span></span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">HELLO!!!
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">안녕하세요</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br />
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Okay
this week was really good we hit must of our goals this week! WHOOT
WHOOT! Yeah that is what missionaries get excited about! So last
P-day we just stayed inside and watched a movie with Sister Holt and
Sister Hurst. They live super close so we see them a lot!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"> <span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">And
also later that night we had a lesson with one of our investigators
(</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">조하니</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">)at
our member's house. Okay, let me just tell you this old couple is so
faithful but... they can be a little </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">부담
</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">which
is like pressure or burden. I don't know how to explain it. It has a
different expression in Korean. But they first stared off with a
OOOOLLLLLDDD church video and then we ate and they were asking here
the weirdest questions. It was kind of strange. Then after that we
watched another OLD video for 30 minutes. This investigator though
was really strong about it and took it well. They were asking her
what is keeping her from baptism and and she is worried about keeping
the Word of Wisdom and Law of Chastity in the future. She is keeping
it now but she is worried for the future. Our members told about
their experiences and with work. It went really well. But, it is hard
to explain they are just a little too bold at times </span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">ㅎㅎㅎㅎ</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So
we are hoping that will have a baptism in February for her. I am
really excited. We also have another investigator (</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">이지선</span></span><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">)
and she is really good. She is just having a hard time with her
beliefs about Joseph Smith. She keeps wondering why it had to be him.
She said she has been praying about him but she hasn't received an
answer. We explained to her that sometimes we don't get answer
immediately and in the way we think we will get them. Sometimes we
have to study for a long time until we know for sure. Like I didn't
know for sure everything was true until I was in High School and I
actually tried to know for myself and not from my parent's testimony.
I grew up in the church but I think back and I just relied on my
parent's testimony but because I strived to do what is right and had
a desire to know for myself I received that answer. We have to put in
our part. Like continiously going to church and not sleeping in.
Reading and Praying everyday even if we are tired and "we don't
have time". Honestly we always have time. The time we are
spending on our phones or watching TV we could do 5 minutes of
reading our scriptures. All it takes is 5 minutes. I study for an
hour or up to 3 hours. I know you can do it. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The
other hard part about teaching her is she doesn't understand our
Korean and she understand our English better but not quite. She is
has been living in Canada for awhile and the Korean there is a little
different so we don't know quite how to teach her but she is slowly
understanding us. Last night, she said it was the first time that she
had felt this "spiritual feeling" and that is really good!!

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This
week we also had Zone Conference. We were combined with two zones. It
was a really good training. The President and his wife came and
trained us, We talked about Stewardship. I think that is really
important to have this quality in our lives. Stewardship means to be
reliable to be responsible. As members of the church we must continue
be able to have this quality so that God can trust us with any kind
of work he has in stored for us. I think that I haven't really had
that so this next week I am going to be reliable. During our
Companionship Inventory I came up with the 3 P's:</span></span></span></div>

<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
am really slacking on these things and I can't do anything alone so I
would ask that you try to try to have missionary opportunities and to
use these 3 P's. I will follow up with it because that is what I do
is I ---> Follow up, Teach, and Give a commitment ( should count
this email as a lesson) haha but please help me do this! :)</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This
email is going to be short because I am trying to respond to all my
emails. </span></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">So
this week I got a new companion! WHAT, WHAT?? Yeah this will be my
5th companion. This is very rare. She 10 months into her mission and
I am her 5th companion.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Her
name is Sister Stastny. She is from Meridian, Idaho! She is super
sweet. Her ancestors are from slovakia! She totally looks Europian!!
It is crazy!! haha We are both really weird so we get a long really
well! I first met her when we got stranded at North Korea so we
bonded really fast :)</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Since
she has been here we have been working really hard. We are now
visiting all of our members that even I haven't met with, we are
doing lessons all the time! It is really good to stay busy.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Even
when you are at home, try to stay busy!! If there is one bit of
advice I could give to you all is to use your time wisely. STOP
WASTING TIME!! Okay, that is it. I have noticed that since I have
been out on my mission, when I was at home I was super lazy. Here, I
have no time to be lazy and sometimes it is hard! hahahaha so
yeah. Read you scriptures, pray, repent, and remember our Savior
DAILY!! Please don't get lazy! Always serve. </span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Okay,
I want to make my email short this week. So one cool thing now that
we are doing in area is that we play basketball, soccer, AND
volleyball all on different days of the week! Korean are sometimes
amazed that an American GIRL can play decently. I will say I have
lost a lot of my talent but hey this is really good way to get
investigators and become close with our ward!!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Yeah,
not much happened this week besides getting a new companion and
showing her around and scheduling for the first couple of days. Today
for P-day we decided to just stay home with some other Sisters and
watch a movie! We really need one of these days. So hopefully I can
send you all a letter.. but we will see :)</span></span></span></div>

So last P-day .. I literally went to the border of North Korea. There is this exhibit there that you can look across the water and watch people. :The crazy part about it is that all the buses left when we came out so we were stuck there. It was on the foggiest of days and it was the eeriest expereince. We had to sit there for an our in the middle of now where next to the barbe wired fence that seperated North Korea and South Korea. There military men everywhere and we couldn't go back inside because the exhibit closed.. CRAZY, right?! We almost had to hitch hike back and we got into someone's car but then someone found the taxi's number and we had to wait there for another 30 minutes until it came to pick us up. Seriously this was like a scene in the movies. Let me discribe you the setting. So there are 3 white girls and 1 Korean standing on the snow on the side of the street. Probably one of the coldest and foggiest days since I have been in Korea. You could hear dogs barking 100 meters away. Occasionally you woud see a baby deer prance across the empty street. You would see a car pass drive every 20 minutes and you had to just sit and wait. 1/4 mile away you could see the fence tat kept North Korea and South Korea divided. Hahah okay seriously it was spooky but so funny.. I will send you pictures. I also gave out my Book of Mormon to the Taxi Driver and he seemed really happy to receive it. So the power of getting stranded.</span><br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">This
week was a not too eventful. This week we had to perform in the Stake
Relief Society Musical Festival. Hahaha that was too funny. We didn't
have much time to plan and our young women didn't really know how to
dance but it was still so much fun to do. We performed to a Korean
song call,"Must have love" hahaha it is kind of a carol.
Look it up and just imagine us and the young women in our ward trying
to dance/sing to it and then spraying snow from a can bottle.. Yeah,
it was pretty interesting. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Anyways,
last week we went ice skating for P-day and there were sooo many
skaters there like being trained. Koreans are extremely talented! I
used my Go-Pro mom, don't worry, I have some videos of it.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 9pt;">This
week, we taught a lot about the Plan of Salvation. I have been
gaining even a personal testimony of studying it and sharing it. We
taught </span></span><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 9pt;">김태홍
</span></span><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 9pt;">(kim
Tae Hong) again and he just loved it. He asked so many questions and
now is contacting us much more about questions he has. In our last
lesson with him he said that he really wants to learn from us so we
have been trying to bare testimony a lot more when we meet with him
and it seems to be working really well. The more I try to share my
sincere testimony in Korean the stronger it seems to get. We also met
with </span></span><span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 9pt;">강진
자매님</span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">She
seems to love the gospel but her spirit seems blue so if you could
keep my investigators in your prayers. Oh the family I was talking
about last week, the postponed our visits for a few weeks which is
really sad. Hopefully we will see them soon. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I
have even seen it when we teach our members. I have realized that
even 20 minutes lessons are powerful. When I first went into a 20
minute lesson I thought it was going to be a "practice"
lesson for us. It definitely isn't. The more 20 minute lessons we
have I have come to realize that they really need to hear the
message. Our members are struggling to do their own missionary work
and build their own testimonies and I think this really help. So
please share just even the smallest thought with anyone I would truly
love that.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">A
lot of our appointments dropped but we saw lots of little miracles. I
know the Lord is still watching over us.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">I
was doing my personal study today and I was reading the New
Missionary President Seminar by Russel M. Nelson and it talked about
Enduring to the End. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 9pt;">I
just thought I needed to share with you all that temple work is
extremely important. We can't endure to the end without temple work.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">So

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: ArialMT, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Yes,
the language is still hard. I learning but I am not good at all yet.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">HELLO
FAMILY!!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">Okay
things are going super good here in the Seoul Hood, haha.. Okay So
let's see what happened this week.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: small;">Last
Tuesday we had a zone conference and we talked a lot about
setting/keeping goals and A LOT about relying, recognizing, and
feeling the Holy Ghost. I just want to first say that not only
missionaries have to rely on the holy ghost everyone at home should
also be doing their part of trying to feel the spirit in their lives.
For some reason it has been really hard for me to recognize what the
spirit is prompting me to do. I can definitely feel but sometimes I
don't know what it wants me to do. So In the next few days I am going
to try to pray hard to feel it, search scriptures to apply it, bear
my testimony, share experiences with people so that they can relate
to it, and lastly express love to the Lord and to people around you.
In lessons especially it is extremely hard to do theses things
because I am not even close to knowing what the language is
(sometimes I think I have gotten worse, but I keep trying) but I
promise that even not in lessons and you express these things to
people they can know for themselves the things you believe. This will
help you bring the spirit into the home, school, work.. So my
suggestion to you is to try to bring the spirit where every you go.
It requires a lot of work. Pray often and show your love to the
people around you. So I am going to ask you all in a week how you
have done this and I better get a response back haha. I don't write
this stuff for fun because honestly my hand is crmaping up write now
so please try this next week to be a better example of the believers.
We also had this Fireside last night (which was in half Korean half
English because everything was translated depending on the speaker)
talking about media. I know we hear it a lot but we have to spread
the word of the gospel because I think we would be wasting our time
on earth. "The worth of Souls is great in the sight of God"
So just think about that okay... Facebook anything that Christ would
post, ( I am not sure if that is appropriate to say haha but just
pretend) Tweet uplifting gospel quotes, Instagram a picture of
service.. I don't know you all have brains use them for good! haha
seriously though what good have you done today? Elder Whiting (of the
quorum of the 70) talked in our English branch yesterday and fireside
and he talked about sacrifice. What must we sacrifice in order to
become the men and women god would want us to be... Do something
differently in the next week. I am going to check up on you all so...
DO IT! Please :)</span></span></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">So
let me just tell you what I have experience so far since I have been
here. I have eaten octopus jerky, lots and lots of rice (hopefully my
stomach doesn't explode) lots of different spicy soups. My trainer
Sister Kim cooks us Korean lunch everyday so hopefully I will pick up
from her.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">That's
me in my 2 Week. Everything is good so far.Pray for me! I pray for
all of you! Love you all! Remember God loves you!</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">HELLO
EVERYONE!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br />
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">What?
I am in Korea... This is so crazy to me that I am here. Uhh...
yeah... I still don't understand a word anyone is saying but I love
it here. I also love my new companions. I am in a tri-o. I have my
trainer who is Sister Kim and my other companion which is Sister
Allred. I am sooooo blessed to have them as my first companions. My
trainer works me hard which I love. She is from America but she has
lived in Korea and is full Korean so she knows the country and the
language super well. I will be her last companion. She will be
leaving in December which is super sad!! Sister Allred is awesome!!
She works so hard even tho she doesn't think she does. The are too
nice to me too!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"> <span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
am also blessed to be in the best area in Seoul! </span></span><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">영등포
</span></span><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">(yongdunpo) our
area has literally everything. The members here are amazing. Even tho
there isn't a lot of them. Ohhh... let me just tell you... We are
learning KSL. Korean Sign Language. It is way awesome. We are apart
of a deaf/Korean ward and english ward (which is huge, about 400
people). It is really awesome. Also in the english ward there are a
lot of Filipinos so I probably will learn like one or two words in
tigaglyon. (have no idea how to spell that) Like in a few weeks the
English ward is singing tigalyon music in one of our firesides I
think so... yeah. A lot of new learning. We also see a lot of Chinese
and Japanese people. My companion knows a little bit of both so I
hope to pick up on some of that as well. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">This
week was crazy good. So we first started off the plan by proselyting
on the subway and then going to the Mission home. We had dinner all
that fun jazz. Woke up did some meetings and then met our new
companions and headed to our new areas. And on our way there had to
do more proselyting again. The next day we met with a investigator
that I couldn't tell you her name right now because they all kind of
sound the same to me at the moment haha. Anyways, we also met with
some of the young womens. Every Thursday and Saturday we play
basketball with the members and (future) investigators. We also teach
a english class every Thursday and Saturday which is really cool. I
never thought I would be using so much English here. But I am
striving to get better at my Korean. Hahaha it is funny because
sometimes when we are proselyting I only know like two phrases when
we are handing out our English flyers and our Gospel Question cards
and its. "Is your english good?" and when I say that they
hurry say no and like run away and I have to chase them to say "its
okay we teach English classes" so my trainer said I have to find
a new way to say that because it is intimidating hahah. The other
thing I know how to say is " can you play basketball well"
to invite them to basketball but most people don't understand me
enough so I get embarrassed and start laughing and they get all
confused and walk away. Ohh I guess there is another thing I do say
and I say it wrong every time is. Have you had these questions
before?" (pointing to the question card) They never understand
so they eventually take it and hurry off. I actually like proselyting
but the only hard part is keeping a conversation. So that is when
Sister Kim does her magic and gives them a Book of Mormon. So that
what I do is scare them until Sister Kim comes and saves them. hahaha</span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">Ummm...
food here is amazing... I haven't had anything too weird yet. One
night as like a 10 o'clock snack we had octopus jerky... It was weird
but they made me still eat it haha.. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a;"><span style="font-family: Apple Casual;"><span style="font-size: small;">This

pictures of them and the stuff we did.</span></span></span></div>
