Wow wow wow

So, it's already the end of my first transfer in Korea. What the heck?! That means only one more transfer left of my training and then I will be like a real live missionary. Okay, so I already am, but once I am done training, my study time in the morning gets cut by an hour and a half, so I will be doing a lot more proselyting with a lot less prep time. I hope I can survive! 

The language is coming really well actually. My understanding level is FAR above where it should be at this point, and it is truly humbling to feel the Lord working miracles in me. My speaking ability is significantly lower, but it's still better than what I would have been able to accomplish on my own. 

So, this week was spent mostly on splits with another Elder in the next area. He is on his 2nd transfer, so basically there were 2 brand new Elders walking around the streets of Korea doing the work. It was FANTASTIC! I was so scared because we are both so fresh, but the Lord helped us every step of the way, and we had really successful lessons, talked to a lot of people and we just opened our mouths and were blessed because of it :) So it was a really good experience.

Last night, Elder Atkin and I saw a great miracle. We were door-knocking...? Is that how you say it in English? I only know the Korean for it. But we were doing that thing where you go from one door to the next, knocking and trying to talk to people. Anyway, the last door we knocked on, a  woman answered the door. We gave our standard introduction and she motioned for us to come inside. We were a little confused because that had NEVER happened before. We talked to her a little bit more when she gestured for us to come inside again, so we did. Wouldn't you know it, her son was there, her husband was there, they know one of the key members in our branch, they wanted to know about the Book of Mormon, it was just wonderful! We are really excited about them :) It was such a great miracle! I'm not sure if I described it as miracle-like as it was in real life, but believe me when I say It. Was. AWESOME! :)

Okay, my time just vanishes when it comes email time, so I have to go, but I love  you all and hope you are doing well. Send me letters if you haven't heard from me, because chances are, I don't have your address and really want to talk to you!! It only costs like a dollar to send me a letter and I will try as best as I can to make it worth your while :)

Oh! One more thing. My absolute FAVORITE scripture right now is Alma 37:34,36-37. I love it so much I wrote it in microscopic handwriting and have it taped to the back of my nametag so I can keep it with me all the time. Read it, love it, and cherish it. Deal? Great!

Have a good week!
