Question of the Week: What is a favorite feature of your new apartment? Answer: Hahaha funny you should ask that question. So to preface this, it is one of the newest houses in the mission (missionaries moved in just a few weeks ago) and it is a smart house. So you can call the elevator from inside the house, control the the lights and everything from one panel and a ton of other stuff! It's so much tech I don't know how to use it all. Oh, and you can set the house to wake you up, so I haven't had to use my alarm clock at all. So there's a lot I like about it, but my favorite thing... I don't know, haha it's all really good (: Anyways, on to my new area and stuff! Ahhh I love it out here in 이천 [ Icheon ]! It's great! It is soooooo much more country side though!! There's fields and street markets (I love those, haha I'll have to send a picture sometime of those and the fields and the houses!!! (yes real houses!!! I haven't seen one of those

This week we recieved transfer calls. On Wednesday I will be going to 이천!! [ Incheon ] And will be serving with Elder Forthman (you might recognize him from earlier pictures, he was in my house before it went down to a two man house). So there's that. I had to say goodbye to so many friends here in 교대 on Sunday and it was really sad, but I know I will see them again in this life or the next. I'm also really sad to go because we were really seeing some success these past few weeks, but I know it's God's work and he'll use another tool to finish and make sure the work continues here (: And I'm excited to find out what he has in store for me in 이천! God has always guided my paths so this one will be no different. Excited to tell you all about it!!

Where to begin this week? So many amazing experiences but too little time!! (and I can't remember them all) I guess I'll just talk about love, charity, and fear. Those were a big part of my personal study this week and came up in comp. study as well. Anyways to tie it in to some stories from this week, basically I was having a little trouble with 전도 [proselyting] and talking with people because honestly it is a bit scary sometimes to just go up to the big guy on the subway who looks like he's having a bad day and say "Jesus loves you! Do you want to know more??" (ok a little more elegantly than that and in Korean, but basically the gist haha). So something I've been working on is loving everyone and trying to love them and see them as Christ would, and every time I fear talking to someone saying a little prayer in my heart and then going for it. This is because through those studies and talking with my companion, we came to relize/re-relize the truth that Sa

Temple Temple Temple!!! yay!!! This week I got to go to the Temple!!! It was pretty great if you couldn't tell, haha. Which also meant I got to go to the Seoul Mission! haha that was fun!! And I actually saw one of my friends from the MTC!! So that was cool (If pictures work you'll get to see). That whole day was amazing! After the temple on the train I had one of my best Korean only conversations with an old man on the way back! What a good day.

The members were amazing again in helping him feel comfortable and then later when we taught a lesson one of the members helped, and it was honestly one of the best lessons I've been a part of!!! Member missionary work is soooo important! I would also like to share and invite you all to read a chapter this week that really impacted me i
