안녕하세요!!!
This week has been incredibly busy, so I will start from the
beginning. On Monday the elders, Sis. Gooch, and I decided to do an activity
together to start off P-day. In our church, there is this random bag of ball
pen balls. So we decided that we would have a giant dodgeball game. Our elders
decided to make forts out of chairs. One
Elder decided to take it even a step further by making tank barriers. I am not
really sure what that means, but it made it incredibly hard to throw balls at
him. After P-day, we went and had FHE with one of our favorite members. We
talked about how the beginning of the new year is often associated with new
beginnings. Then we tied that to the atonement. Overall, it was a really good
FHE.
On Tuesday, half our district got super sick. Something is
being spread around the missionaries in Korea and it is not good. So Tuesday
and Wednesday, we were sentenced inside to recover and make phone calls.
Tuesday night, we went out and met with Sis. Wright and Sis. Moyer for a
language evaluation. Anytime we meet with those two, we laugh a lot.
On Thursday, the missionaries in our district woke up super
early to welcome the new year with the ward. We met our ward at the base of
this hill and then we hiked up. Once we arrived to the designated spot, we sang
a hymn and the bishop prayed. He then told us all to individually pray for
ourselves, family, investigators, friends, etc. Essentially for everyone...it
was super good because it remotivated us to be better missionaries. After
hiking, we went to the bishops house and ate rice cake soup. It was so good :)
Friday we helped a couple in our ward move to their new
apartment. While we were helping the move, we found opportunities to share the
gospel with maintenance people. It was really cool and we extended an
invitation to them to learn more about our church. We hope they take us up on
our offer.
On Sunday we received transfer calls! Sadly, Sis. Gooch is
leaving but she is heading to Gangnam!! Whenever we talk about transfer calls,
she would always joke about how she wanted to go to the city. My new companion
will be Sis. Reed and it looks like she will be my last. I am still STL and I
am super excited to be able to end my mission here in 만수!!
Can you believe that I only have 2 transfers left? I cannot...it definitely is
not something I am going to be able to process for a while.
