So this pasat week was pretty awesome!! It started off normal, being super busy, eating a ton of food with the members and stuff like that haha but Tuesday was a crazy day... so the sisters called us and told us that they wanted to do a proselyting activity together to help our english calss get some more members. So we got a board that people come and stick stickers on and have to answer some questions in english which allows us to introduce our enlgish program! So while we were doing this a huge group of highschool girls came by and started to stick stickers while my companion and sister Oh were telling them about why we we are here and stuf like that. I was standing a little of to the side trying to get more people to go and stick on stickers. Haha so apperantly while I was doing that a bunch of the girls started talking about me to Elder Lee and sister Oh. They were saying I was really handsome and they wanted to come to english class if I was there... and Sister Oh and Elder Lee encouraged them so much that they came over to me and wouldnt leave me alone for like 10 minutes... and they were trying to get my autograph.... hahahahha that day while doing the activity we were able to get 18 contacts!! sadly only 4 of them were guys..... hahaha, The sisters got so much contacts they want to do this a lot more often.... Then later that night a member that Elder Lee knew from Busan came to Jeju for the new year holiday (because he is originally from jeju) And he bought us soooo much good food!!! He is such a cool guy haha The things i ate that night were this, Sushi, raw beef, Sashimi, tons of seafood, tons of ice cream, things like that.. I will send a picture later haha, it was so good! I dont think I have ever eatnthat much in my life though... and later that night we met with a new investigator that we found who is from Canada!! He is a really interesting guy, and he asked tons of super deep questions!! He is really kind and is super curious about life in general! his name is Andy.
Not to much crazy stuff happened after that!! but we had a sister who just fed us a few weeks ago take us out again to the same buffet haha I dont think I have ever eaten as much food in my life as I have in Jeju... I am gaining a tonnnn of weight nowadays!!! And Thurdsday night we did a zone proselyting activity haha it was funny becasue the seogwipo elders carried a table halfway across the city.. hahaha we sang hymns for the activity!
Friday was Lunar New Year! In korea it is a big holiday and we were lucky toh ave our ward mission leader invite us to his house where we ate a ton of food!! haha and and becasue it was a big Korean Holiday Elder Lee got to Skype to his family!! And then later that night we actually went to his aunts house haha his mom is from Jeju so his mom side off the family all live here!! The weird thing is is that he doestn really know them that well and they arent memebrs haha, he was worried about coming here, but presidetn just told him to meet them anyways and convert them hahah so we ate dinner there and played a fun korean game!! Apparently im super good at it even thoguh i dont really know what I am doing... hahahaha
Saturday was a really really tiring but awesome day! In the morning we played tons of soccer with the branch and then later we met with the same member who fed us Tuesday and he bought us chicken and then we went and played basketball!!When we were playing basketball we met this super awesome kid! Sadly he is going to Seoul this week.... So Seoul gets a super awesome referal soon!! Me and him might be going to the same college when I come back to Korea!!
Sunday was a super crazy day! So I had to give a talk, and I also translate here becasue there are 2 members from philippenes and we have an American family here as well. I actualy met them for the first time yesterday cause they have been super busy for awhile! They have three daughtrs who are super cute and remind me of my little sisters Emma and Piper hahah I was really jealous of them becasue apparently they met one of my favorite athletes shawn white after he won gold at the olympics.. Speaking of which I didnt even know he was in the olympics this year until yesterday?? hahahaha I was super jealous ㅠㅠㅠ and while at church a new member who jsut moved here brought a freind and a kid randomly called us and wants to become am meber now??? Super awesome!! And our investigator Brother Jwa is doing graet!! We had an awesome lesson with him yesterday!! It is a really awesome feeling to be driving home after a really succesful lesson :)
This sunday is Jeju district conference and we are hoping a lot of people are able to come out!!! It should be another graet week here in Jeju :) Love you all <3
