This week was super awesome!!!

Last p-day we had a super fun time with some of the other missionaries and with some members who came and hiked a mountain and took us to a cool lighthouse! Later on we played some intense rounds of ping pong with some members at FHE (I came in 2nd out of everyone..  only person who beat me is my ping pong trainer).  And, I had a fun exchange the next day with our zone leader!

Wednesday wasn’t to crazy or exciting but on Thursday we had Zone conference!! At zone conference President Barrow made some cool little cards called our faith project cards. On the cards are some great faith promoting scriptures! So the purpose of this is to help us increase our faith for finding people and doing everything else. So we try to read one care everytime we go out to proselyte or do other things like that. I had a really cool experience using this card!!  One night while i was contacting (the past weeks, whenever I call nobody seems to be answering, and it’s been very frustrating), but I decided to read one of the verses on the card, and say a quick prayer for someone interested to answer. So I called maybe 3-4 numbers and no one answered and when I got to the 5th one someone answered and he seems like he at least will be willing to meet later! I am very grateful for the power of faith and what it can do!

After zone conference I went on exchanges with one of my new favorite missionaries (Elder Lee JaeBoak) We had a super fun time together and we are really great friends now!! It is fun being the District Leader’s companion because of all the exchanges that we get to go on with everyone! It’s an awesome friendship building experience!!

Later in the week we met a new investigator, he is a referral from one of the members. His name in Kim JunSeo, he is a freshman and his mother is actually a less active in the church. He can’t remember anything about the church, only that he has been here once or twice. He is a super cute Korean kid and pretty good at basketball! He really wants to go to BYU in America, so he wants to get baptized, haha.

Also this week the Bangeojin sisters got a baptismal date!! It’s the last day of the transfer!! Also we had the opportunity to go to the Shinjung/Hogye sisters baptismal service too!! (Sister Yoon and Sister Pak) I won some ice cream off of Sister Yoon because I beat her in ping pong, but she won’t buy it until we do best 2 out of 3... haha.

So the reason I’m emailing so late today, is because we had a fun district p-day, and had to leave on a bus early in the morning!! It was super fun!! This week was awesome, and I’m looking forward to another great week!!! Love you all!!
