Week 11

Hey everyone,

 

This week was sweet as usual! We started off the week by visiting our recent convert brother Yi in hang. We wanted to talk to him about faith. we shared some scriptures from alma 32 and kinda went through them with him. When we asked him questions about what some of the scriptures meant, he answered pretty much all of them perfectly (so my companion said, i had no clue). Everytime we meet with him we have given him homework to read certain passages of scriptures and he always does them so I think he is beginning how to learn from the spirit better. Even as a member, he is progressing very well and I can see the growth hes had.  He is so Awesome! I can always feel the spirit so strongly when we talk with him.

We also were able to meet with brother Kim Dae Hun. We made a message card for him about families and how they can be forever through christ. When we got to his cell phone store, elder Jeong realized he forgot the message card. Disaster! So we thought... We just talked to him for awhile about cell phones and about his business. It got a little bit awkward and quiet because there was nothing else we could really think of to talk to him about. He broke the silence and asked me why I wanted to serve a mission. I shared my testimony about the Book of Mormon and about Jesus Christ. After that, he asked us if we can really know the church is true. He told us that his sisters are very strong members of the church, they cannot deny this church's truth. He is a little bit confused because they both went to a very prestigious university and are smart people. He said they couldn't just be fooled. He wondered how you feel the spirit and what its like. Awesome question! haha my companion talked to him for a little bit and we gave him homework to read from the book of mormon. Maybe he has some interest! We are hoping and praying that he will read from the book of mormon to feel the spirit.

Transfer calls are this week! By next monday, I will have been in Korea for 3 months! dang time flies. If I get transfered I wont be able to see the progression of vicky, julie, and kim dae hun! This week is very important! Hopefully I dont get transferred though! sorry im short on time this week. Oh and conference was inspiring wasnt it?! so great! Probably the best one Ive heard! love yall
