Week 23

March 19, 2017

Wow was this week great!!

First I had to say goodbye to some people I had gotten close with, but I got to keep my companion and house mates which it great!

This week was really busy! We went on splits and taught a lot a lot of really solid people!!!

So Monday we just went bowling and to a Korean spa

Tuesday we had our service activity, where we teach mental people English and make bags with them!

Wednesday me and Elder Young were together and we got a new fridge and we went out and talked to a lot of people! We didn't get much success, but we tried really hard and that's all that matters! But a grandma did tell me "handsome boy" and touched my arm! It was great! haha 12 year old girls always say how cute Elder Young is, but I get the grandmas!!!! whooooohooo!!!!!!!!! Also that same night a guy asked us if we were studying at basically the best Korean college! I guess our Korean isn't too bad haha!!!!

Friday and Saturday were a blur!!! We had tons of appointments and meeting and splits and it was very busy!

But Thursday me and Elder Wadsworth were together and we taught this really young man. He was 12. but he said that his parents were divorced and he heard if you learn about Jesus you can be happy. So we started with Moroni 10 4-5. He read it and then said "so I have to pray? how do I pray?" We told him and he said "Can I pray now?" We said of course. He prayed in his head for a long time then opened his eyes and said "Wow, what am I feeling?" I told him it was the spirit!

I asked him to explain how he felt and he said cold and refreshed and peaceful. He said he prayed about his family and felt super happy. It was great! we taught the whole restoration and he said "Its a little weird hearing all these gold plates and angels, but what I felt earlier means God is real so what else matters? I believe you!"

I know that this boy was prepared. He was humble and willing and eager to seek Gods guidance. I know if we all are humble and go to God he will answer us.

I would like to add my testimony to his! God is real so what else matters? God is real and I know that is true. When hard times come, when doubts creep in, when we feel overwhelmed, or like giving up on this very difficult world, remember God is real, so what else matters? He loves us, He hears us, He supports us, He knows us.

Have a great week everyone!
