this week was good in jinhae! so we started off the week right by playing basketball with a less active about the same age as us. After, we talked about doing the small things in order to achieve great things and eventually recieve salvation in the celestial kingdom. He hasn't come to church in awhile so we invited him to come to church and he came! he only stayed for sacrament meeting but he talked to my companion after and said that he got a really good feeling when he was at church! we are going to play basketball with him again and try to invite him to other little things like read the scriptures.
We met with a different investigator named daniel seo. he lived in america for 20 years so he can speak really good english! this was my first time meeting with him, whenever we called him he always said that he was busy and couldn't meet with us but he finally was able to this past week. He works all day and his sister just got in a car accident so right after work he goes to the hospital to stay with his sister. we met him at the hospital and just talked with him for a little about his family. We talked about the restoration and he said that he is open and willing to learn about other churches and said that he wants to come to church when he doesnt have to work so thats good! but, when we continued to talk he said that he believed in the trinity and that all you needed was the bible. ahh... so we tried to explain a little bit more about God and Jesus Christ and he just nodded his head. He is a very good guy and really open, but he still believes in the trinity. Just my opinion, but i think if he can come to know that Heavenly father and Jesus Christ are separate beings, he will be a golden investigator. It seems like he really wants religion and just wants to find truth!
The members in Jinhae are really great, this past week i think we had probably 4 meal appointments which never really happens too often! I ate delicious shark this week and lots of good kimchi! it was weird, i was thinking about what food will be like back in america and i dont know how i will survive without korean food everyday... it will be a struggle.. haha anyway, thanks for everything everyone! keep praying for the missionaries, we can feel your prayers! love you all!
