Hey family,
I'm in the the Changwon Stake, Masan ward. I'm not sure if I told you
anything about the ward here. They are amazing! The entire ward is like a big
extended family. I can't tell whose kids are whose because they all take care
of each other and are all really good friends regardless of age. It makes
everything really fun.
Saturday we had a ward music night. All the missionaries, the youth and
some non-members from English class all performed and then we ate rice cakes and
kimbab. The ward mission leader, Carter (that's his English name), put the whole
thing together and we spent a lot of time last week helping him get ready. Its
purpose was to get non-members to church. We got some people from English
class, a less active, some random dudes off the street, and Carter's family to
come. It was way fun.
We keep running into Nepalese people here. They are super nice and want to
hang out with us but never in ways that missionaries are allowed. Hopefully we
can meet some interested in our message.
This is the last week of my first transfer! I don't expect to be going
anywhere though
.
.
Sorry to hear about those investigators cancelling. All of ours (except
the Jehovah's Witness) have cancelled every time this transfer. Until
yesterday. I finally met Kang Sung Hoon. He has the most potential out of
everyone we have met with so far of becoming a potential investigator. He has
been busy studying for a big test and hasn't been able to meet. He took it and
we thought he was done but it turns out it was just a practice and he failed
it. He has a little time before he gets busy again though. We hope for a
baptismal date this week!
I have been better fed this last week than any previously. Some rich
members took us to a really nice buffet. It had statues and fancy waiters in
bow ties. More exciting was the cheescake and ice cream and beef! Anything
that comes out of cow is expensive here and we save all our money for milk each
week. Worth it. Anyway I ate until I got sick and was happy. The next day we
had another lunch appointment at a member's home and on Saturday Baskin Robbins
had a sale and we got half a gallon for dinner. Today we have plans for a meat
buffet!
As for other names of people we are working with; we have Bak Hee Sung, the
old less active we have been visiting. Kim Hee Sook is the recent convert. We
are trying to meet with her husband Kang Yong Ee. There is a boy, Pang Hyun Oo,
who recieved all the lessons and comes to church but faces opposition at home
and isn't sure about baptism.
안녕히가세요
