That seemed to be the theme this week,
things are going well but there are just things holding people back We had 2 people say they want to get baptized
this last week, but…first off we have Park Jongmoon. We were able to set up a dinner and lesson with
a cool couple in the ward which went super well. We talked about families and gave him a
baptismal invitation for March 13. He
said he wants to get baptized, but he’s leaving this week to live in another
city for a month. Why??? He would’ve accepted it!! Super frustrating. But Elder Warren is in that city, so we’ll
try to get them set up together. That was
disappointing. Our second case was Park Jonghoon,
yup, their names are almost the same. He
has a very slight mental problem but is completely functionable. He loves the gospel, reads the scriptures all
the time, understands super well, and is just super awesome. He wants to be baptized but his parents
oppose church. But he said he will be
moving out next month and will be able to come out to church and get
baptized! So hopefully it works out
well!
We’ve been trying to work with members
better so we set up a member lesson with our 73 year old investigator Na Jinju
and a 76 year old member. It was super
funny and there were several times when I had no idea what was going on. They randomly started talking about South
American society using all these crazy words in their grandpa
pronunciation. I couldn’t help but just
smile and laugh as they rambled on about who knows what. Our church time is changing to 1, so he
should be able to start coming out to church.
I have really enjoyed meeting with
these people and hope to continue to find the great people here in Korea,
whether or not they’re actually Korean.
Things are going well here and I’m enjoying my time with Elder
Groves. It has been fun helping him out
with Korean and what not and seeing him progress. I never realized how hard Korean is until I
started teaching it! It’s even harder
and more complex than I thought. Haha
but we have been helped a lot. Thank you
all for your help and support as well. I
hope you have a great week and read this great scripture: Alma 5:16.
Love you all!
