OK so this week i don't have a ton of time but I will try and say as much as I can!
So this week has been kind of hard, well harder than most of my weeks. Whenever we proselyte we seem to get no success, and it has been really slow. Plus we had a couple of people that we met on the street that seemed really good and had tons of potential, but none of them ended up working out! Ahh So frustrating! However this is the lords work and he is in the timing of everything! Everyone is on there own clocks and we just need to do our best to always be giving them that opportunity so when it is there time we are there waiting for them!
First, yesterday we gave E Sung Joon the aaronic priesthood! Super cool, he is now the first priest in our ward! Next week he can bless the sacrament! Its super fulfilling seeing someone you helped come into this gospel continue to progress in it! The ward members are fellow -shipping him really well and i feel like he feels welcome here!
Next, Kim Jong-Won came back from his 3 week long vacation and came to church yesterday! We had him go to priesthood this time because there were not a lot of people at church and they needed the elders to be in there, and I feel like they did a really good job at including him and making him feel apart of the ward! Hopefully that trip helped him realize that he needs to get baptized! He believes in it all, just wants to decide for himself on when he gets baptized and doesn't want us pressuring it. So keep praying for him and we will keep on doing our best to help push him towards it and see why it is important!
The Shin-Chon-Jee person that I talked about last time, didnt end up meeting us. He called us and said he wanted to meet on wednesday. So we called him again 2 hours before the meeting to decide where to meet, then we found out he was bringing his preacher, and turns out that she (the preacher) thought she was teaching us, and the kid told her that we are super interested. So when she found our we were missionaries she canceled the meeting! Thankfully!
Oh Elder Holland came to korea this last weekend and gave a devotional in Seoul, and it was broadcasted all across korea! There was one Friday night and one saturday night, they were both super good. But the Friday night one I felt the spirit on MTC levels! Super, super good! The spirit bore witness to me that he truly is an apostle of our lord Jesus Christ, and he has the same responsibilities, power, authority, weight and everything else that comes with being an apostle as, the apostles back in Christs time did. Especially with me reading Jesus the Christ, and understanding the apostles a lot more, I really felt the spirit strong and I know that Elder Holland and the rest of the 12 are truly Christs disciples!
On Friday it was Elder Pak's birthday! I bought him Mcdonalds because he thats what he said he wanted, and then the sisters and me ordered chicken for him and ate it while watching Elder Hollands devotional!
Love you all so much! Thanks for all the love and support you give me!
Love
-Elder Stagg
