Dear home,
Another whirlwind goes into the books. This was a good week. The
sisters had a Baptism, so I got to meet with their investigator for
the Baptismal interview. She is about 12 in American age, but she's so
mature. When she prayed, it was one of the most sincere prayers I've
heard. Simple, but strong. Definitely well prepared for Baptism. She
got baptised this Sunday, and the service was really spiritual.
Outside of that too, it was great, Lot's of cool miracles, a couple
new faces, and little surprises that keep life interesting.
So, this week was transfer week, and Elder Keyser and I get to serve
together another transfer. Only one missionary transfered in my
district, and he was a missionary I've served together with over half
of my mission. Awesome guy, and a fireball of a missionary. The new
Zone Leader that came in is awesome too. He seems really receptive to
the spirit, and a fun personality. Looking forward to working with
him, as well Elder Keyser again.
After that, we had a really good testimony meeting for the end of the
BoM reading activity. Our District did one together, then we had a
conference call testimony meeting with the rest of the zone. It was a
really fast transfer it felt like, but we all learned a lot.
Had a mini Christmas this week too. A while back, I ordered a copy of
PMG in Kor/Eng (side by side), and it came this week after MLC. As
I've been reading it, it's been really useful for studying, and a
couple other thoughts have been coming to mind as I've been using it,
one of which is using it when meeting or teaching lessons with
members. In the past, my Korean one has been to big and bulky so we
couldn't do it, but I think it'll be a really good help. So much we
can get out of it, I want to be able to share that with members more.
Met an awesome family last week. Found them tracting, and I love them
a lot. I think I mentioned them last time. No religion, but open
minded. And really nice. This past time we talked about how the Gospel
blesses our families, and how knowing about God will help them. Shared
about prayer, and they seemed to accept it really well. Kind of funny
news though. The Mom is leaving to go to Hawaii for a month to train
horses. ...Kind of took us by surprise. Jealous? In another world, I
might be, but to be honest, I'm just sad I won't be able to meet them
very much. Still have another chance to meet them though. We're hoping
to leave them with something so they can keep searching while they're
away.
I love you all. You're the best. I miss you a lot, but I'm glad I can
still hear from you and write to you. The wonders of modern technology
are a beautiful thing.
Gotta run, but Elder Keyser and I went hiking up in a mountain this
morning, so I'll try to send pictures. Love you! Have a good week!

Check that. This computer has a wall between me and the USP port. It wins this round... Pictures next time. ^^
