Dear Home,
Missionary
work gets more and more fun. We had over 3/4 of our appointments this
week cancel on us because of work, weddings, or funerals. Pretty
intense, but we met some pretty awesome people. A scholar who wants to
learn about the Book of Mormon, an awesome lady we met at her house (we
talked before, so we wanted to stop by again. We talked, then she gave
us her number and asked us to visit again. Really awesome, diligently
studies the Bible, just can't really learn much about other churches
because of a 90 year old mom that's really strict of a specific church.
Nice though. ^^), a student that was curious about what we're doing in
Korea, lots of other too.
Some things have been rough though. Our mission office
is still shot. So we're almost out of supplies. We're serving in a four
man house. Between the four of us, we have two copies of the Book of
Mormon left. I'm 전도ing with an English one now... The hardest part is
when you meet someone cool and you have to gauge whether or not to give
them a copy. Hopefully we get up and running again. We meet supplies...
Also, the weather is a little funny now. There's this perpetual
humidity. I can't tell if the sky is haze or cloud anymore. No shade
though. Just solid white. Always sweating... I miss winter.
Anyway, that's fun. I've also got a picture to send you guys. You
see, we live in the old sister house. And they left a TON of stuff
behind. Weird to go through, but among those things is a very large
supply of soaps. I found a small collection of skin creams and acne
treatment stuff that I'm going through now. Kind of fun.
Outside of that, Life goes on. We helped a drunk guy
cross the street. He was laying in the middle of the road with this
other guy trying to help him up. He didn't realize we were there until
we were halfway to the sidewalk. Took him by surprise a little. Will he
remember us when he sobers? Probably not. And h may attribute it to the
drunken haze, but it makes for a fun story.
We also tried singing in front of people's door as a new
teaching approach. Didn't quite work... needs work. The initial
surprise is fun, but they usually just slam the door again... We also
got an old guy to dance, started speaking gibberish a little, did
back flips with the Bishop's kids. (he comes out of a meeting with his
kid and asks us to keep him happy while we waited for an appointment)
It'd take too long to explain everything, but we were very dizzy when
our friend came. (어지럽다 if you were wondering. Dizzy...)
Good times, keeping active. Anyway, picture time.
There were more district pictures, but that was the
most official looking one. and I'm out of time. I love you guys! Thanks
for your love! Until next week!

PS: busy week this time. Mission Tour, welcoming
President Shin, President Furniss's farewell, should be fun. Yet another
change. =D
