July 31st

HI! another week. it kind of feels like a month but only because we were SO busy!

We are teaching this old guy who's a retired lawyer and brilliant. He's spent his whole life single just hanging out having no purpose. He asks intelligent questions and its a lot of fun to teach him. He actually keeps commitments and It makes me SO happy. Elder Chong keeps offering for us to go over to his farm and be his slaves. I was really bugged about this until he came up to us and said, "you know, lots of christians have tried to tell me about jesus who are smarter than you- but they just talk. You girls actually do what you talk about"  Cool huh?  

I got a wedding invitation from Karen Gourley this week and I was SO HAPPY that i showed all my friends at the post office their pictures. One of the ladies asked me why mormons are so beautiful. I told her its because the gospel makes us happy and happy people are beautiful. and guess who showed up to church with her two daughters!? haha yes, It was AWESOME. Afterwards she told me that the people looked like normal people haha.

We picked up a new investigator this week. Our fan broke and while we were paying for a new one we were talking to the people at the checkout about our Gospel english program and one pf them actually called us. He's 24 and pretty much the sweetest purest weirdest kid i've ever met. While practicing english i asked him what he wanted to be and he told me he wanted to be a Friends (yes, the tv show) character. I was going to tell him the show was cancelled but I didn't have the heart. He will get baptized.

its peach season in Naju and I am in heaven. These peaches HAVE to be injected with illegal substance because they are UNREAL. Elder Chong and I have bonded this week over our love of peaches. I bought him pizza this week because we got in a mini fight about how he needs to stop promising to buy people things if they get baptized. Anyways- he liked the pizza and then he told me that he liked me and I was a good missionary. I almost had a heart attack. It was the best compliment i've ever gotten in my life.

Oh and we haven't even had that much rain so don't worry. Naju is too far away from ANYTHING for something exciting like a flood to happen. Thanks for your concern im perfectly safe.

My compy and I are bonding. She gets mad that I sleep with a fan but I stood my ground. She's kind of hilarious. I want to know what is going on in her korean head?! love her. love korea. oh and I love the Gospel. Its amazing how the lord lets you know what people need to hear. Heavenly Father loves the people of Korea. I can feel it so strongly as I teach. Its also amazing how somehow through my terrible korean and crazy invented sign language they understand and can even feel the spirit- the only way that is possible is because the church is TRUE. I promise.

kk lovsies. Keep praying for my brain. Korean is a beast.
