A bit of a lot to go over... So, right now
I don't have a companion. I'm in a threesome with the other Mokpo
Elders because my companion has to stay in the hospital for a couple
days. He's had a couple health problems since the start of his mission,
but he has mostly just tried waiting it out and didn't say anything. But
since it hasn't resolved itself, and it's been getting worse recently,
they decided to get it looked at. Keep him in your prayers please!
It's weird not being with your own companion. It's
like a part of you is gone. Even more so because you know he's having a
rough time. But life goes on in the field, I guess. We had an FHE last
night with a member's family, then District meeting this morning. We
think we'll be able to come back around Friday maybe. He has to stay in for more tests for a few days.
This week we had Stake Conference, interviews with
President, and there was a combined missionary activity in Gwangju
yesterday for P-Day. Ate lunch, played a little sports, and did some
service at the new church building. But because of that, we got back to
Mokpo a little late.
This week had a lot of exams, so most of our younger
investigators were busy this week. But with that comes summer break for
a couple weeks. We're looking to arrange a service activity with some
of them and members of the ward. Should be pretty fun. I love service,
and it's been harder to do it recently.
This truly is a great work. The ways that we serve
may seem small, but they are all pieces of something bigger. The Gospel
of Jesus Christ is so much bigger than the little things we as humans
stress over. The answers are all fairly simple. The only complicated
things about life are what we make.
Right now, I'm trying to refocus. My thoughts feel
like they kind of went through a blender. Thinking about my district, my
companion, our investigators, my own testimony and how I can help it
grow... It's all kind of blurred now. But I know one thing. Everything
will work out. And in the meantime, I'll trust God and follow his
direction.
I love you all! Have a great week!
