this past week was AWESOMEEEEE!
so we had our english class presentation on saturday and it was SUPER SWEET! we had a rehearsal before the presentation and it was chaotic! and the kids were just being kids so they were having a hard time focusing and it was especially hard because we had the youngest class! but everyone had a prayer in their hearts and the presentation went soooo well thanks to all the amazing members who put a ton of work into english class :D so instead of just doing a presentation, i thought it would be cool if the theme of our presentation was presenting what we learned in the format of the viewers flipping through different korean TV shows! so we turned our stage into a huge TV screen and sister hill and i made signs of different TV shows and had someone walk across the screen with the sign so that the viewers would know what they were watching when each act got on stage! yay for watching lots of korean TV :P
i hosted the beginning of the presentation (elder choi, another 교포, hosted the other half/ while our class was presenting and he did a great job cuz he's really good at korean and english!) and started off by asking everyone to help me turn on this huge TV with my cute remote control (sister hill made it and it was so huge and SO CUTE!) so we did a 뽀뽀뽀 act and everyone loveeedd it when sister hill started off by saying "HELLO MY PPO PPO PPO FRIENDS! i'm ppo mi unnie!" it was super cute! and our students counted to 20 with the song "1 little 2 little 3 little indians" they sang the wiseman built his house upon a rock and popcorn popping that we taught them and our last act was a news desk and we had a little girl be a reporter asking all her friends "where are you? what are you doing?" which is another thing we learned! and the upper class did lots of acts of describing their family and mini fable skits (sister hill made all the animal posters for them and they looked fabulous! SHE'S SO ARTISTIC!) as part of different tv shows. they were sooo adorable! and we finished with the upper level class doing a puppet show of Finding Nemo! It was soooo fun!
At the end, the audience had to give compliments in english to the performers and the performers handed out fake american money and the audience had to collect them to "buy" their refreshments (cookies, sandwiches, drinks, 떡볶이) this was our bishop's wife's idea and it turned out so cute!!! other missionaries from 2 other zones came to watch our presentation to figure out how our awesome members run english class here and they seemed to have enjoyed it too! our members are SO GREAT!!!!! they worked so hard and invested a lot of time intoenglish class! yay for motivated members :D
so as if that wasn't a cool enough day, we had an appointment after the english presentation with the miracle 구도자 that randomly came up to is a few weeks ago at 구로 digital 단지, remember that one? so we were going to go to a choir concert with her and we were super excited! but then she was feeling super tired cuz she works 11 hour days! so we were kinda bummed but we decided to just spend time with her at her house. and we taught her the plan of salvation and the spirit was just so strong, and she was understanding real well and what sister hill and i taught flowed really well together. and she was excited to hear that in the celestial kingdom, she'd be able to be with her dad and husband who both passed away a while back. and then we felt prompted to invite her to be baptized. AND GUESS WHAT. SHE SAID YES. we were both thinking, 'wait, what just happened? does she know what she just said? we just met her a few weeks ago! she trusts us that much? wha???' and then we set her baptismal date for the end of this month (last saturday of this month!!!) and she got super excited and WROTE IT IN HER CALENDAR THAT SHE IS GETTING BAPTIZED!!
sister hill and i are just feeling so blessed and happy!!!!!! our week in a nutshell: our members are awesome. and miracles really do happen. all the time.
look for miracles. every day. and you will find the tender mercies of the Lord that guide you and uplift you every moment of your life.
love you all :)
