Goejeong: Humpday

안녕하세요!!!! So as some of you might know this thursday (8/17) is my year mark. The best part about that is that I get to celebrate it with my companion who is also celebrate his year mark!! This has been one fun year of my life, probably one of the most influencial and important years of my life so far. I am ready to hit this next year with renewed vigor give all to the lord and see some miracles!! There truely are going to be the "Best 2 years"!

So this week me and elder Matua were talking about our year of missionary work, whats worked what hasnt worked. And we came to the conclusion that missionaries in our mission when they have free time they just instantly without thinking right down 전도 (street contacting). This is good but missionaries have been doing this for 60 years, and its gotten to the point where people dont even listen to us. They never get a chance to feel the spirit, or open their hearts to the message because they are just biased against us. So we were talking about some ways or methods we can do to help them talk to us first that way they arent biased towards us and they are a little more open to listen and talk.

One thing you guys might not  know is that most Koreans have an inner burning desire to beat 外國人 (foreigners). So we are starting this campaign called (Beat the foreigner!!) We are going to different activities everyday, (soccer, pingpong, basketball, rapping, uno, etc) and have a sign saying can you beat the foreigner? This way people will first come to us have a fun time which will open their hearts and hopefully we can get thier number and meet again and start teaching them s imply. We talked with our zone (my  zone leaders are Elder Youngblood (my trainer) and Elder 박휘선 (pac hwi son)(my follow up trainer)) and we decided to do this as a zone. I am excited to see how it works! But because of this  me and my companion are trying to learn the Ukelaliah and we are writing raps in korean  about each of the lessons.(its a lot harder then it sounds)haha

The work is moving forward! As Joseph Smith said

“The Standard of Truth has been erected; no unhallowed hand can stop the work from progressing; persecutions may rage, mobs may combine, armies may assemble, calumny may defame, but the truth of God will go forth boldly, nobly, and independent, till it has penetrated every continent, visited every clime, swept every country, and sounded in every ear, till the purposes of God shall be accomplished, and the Great Jehovah shall say the work is done” 

Lets do it! I love you all!!
