1. so last week, we had our second lesson with a new investigator we contacted a few weeks ago by phone and we have done 2 out of the 4 lessons with her already! she's really sweet and she's super cute and seems to understand things real well but we're kind of nervous because she doesn't have any questions on anything and she's progressing so fast! i guess that's a good thing though :P we're hoping to set a baptismal date for her so hopefully that'll go well this week :)
2. we had one of our investigators leave to her home country yesterday! she's the one from kirikistan (sp?) and she's going to be gone for 3 months for vacation so we might not be able to see her when she gets back if one or both of us get transferred then! we both want to stay and see her when she gets back because she's already been to church 2 times and she is receiving the gospel well! we're gonna pray that she doesn't forget anything! we made that funfettie cake that you got me jee for her as a good bye surprise and she was so happy. she said that she is so grateful to have met us :D she had a hard time believing that someone would take time to meet with her and develop a friendship with her because she and her husband don't have a great relationship and because she's from another country, sometimes korean people look down on her. but we promised her the gospel would help her be happier so hopefully she continues to seek after it after she gets back or while she's there! (we don't know if the church is even there! :P)
3. we had ward conference in the first ward this past weekend and we had a fun ward activity on saturday to get ward members to get to know each other more before ward conference. the missionaries were in charge of the activity and so we played volleyball but with different utensils found in our apartment! like a rice paddle, a ruler, a ladle and a chopstick! it was really fun! before the activity, the men in the ward all cooked things in the parking lot and everyone got to eat things like french toast (minus the syrup cuz apparently they don't do that here. so basically egg dipped bread. but it was interestingly really good!!) fried rice, dumplings and stuff! man i love this ward :)
4. ps it's getting so hot now. the weather of korea i guess decided that korea doesn't need spring. so it just skipped to summer. so now i get sweaty and gross. and i hear it'll get worse! lol it changed so fast! but yes, grandmas still think it's the end of winter so they still wear their coats and scarves around. welcome to korea? :P
5. i know this church is true. and no matter what happens, who says what to you, where you're stranded in whatever stage of life you're in, it doesn't matter as long as you know that God loves you. and you're a part of the one true church.
6. love you all :)
