I might by a hair trimmer soon, like what you used to cut my hair.
I'm actually getting really good at cutting hair. I cut the elders' hair
that live in our house. They love it. BE PROUD OF ME MOM!
I also have a problem with my shoes, they split at the seam of the
shoe and sole up by the toe, by my pinky toe. I am trying to glue it
shut, hopefully sealing it before it rains or snows, but it's not
working. I might need to buy a new pair of shoes for the winter. These
shoes are just fine for the summer, I don't mind the rip. But I can get
some good shoes here in Korea. I'll just need to look around.
I'm thinking of buying a new camera, mine is still having the
problem with the spots and stuff, and I don't think the pictures are
good quality. I can go to Costco and get a new one for a good price,
what do you think? I can send this camera home and have you two use it,
but otherwise, I wouldn't use it. It's just a little bulky and not the
best. But I don't NEED a new one, so I'm kind of stuck. I don't want to
be wasteful. I'll think about it.
Speaking of which, thanks for your thoughts on pride. I'm trying to
prepare well and watch and learn from other leaders. Thank you for
your advice on humility, I'll study those and think about it. I need to
become more humble. Honestly, my Korean is good, but it could be a lot
better. Also, the way I use my talents to help people is more of a 'hey,
I'm doing good, let me show you what I can do and you can learn from
me' instead of a 'hey, I learned this the hard way' or helping in a more
'humble manner'. So I'm working on that.
This week was good. We met a pastor, who goes by the name Pastor XXXXX. He and his wife are both bible scholar evangelists, but when
they visited America, they toured through the states and stopped in Salt
Lake. They visited our HQ and met a Korean Missionary at Temple Square.
He's fascinated with the Book of Mormon and wants to learn so much
about it. But they ask questions like, 'were the Nephites Palestinians?'
and such. Not like questions we're used to getting. But they're really
sincere and would never dare to bible bash. I'm so excited to teach them
more.
We're revamping our English class and have so far, found 4
investigators through it. The sisters in our area have found 2, and we
have 2.
We're continuing to see miracles on the street. I gave a book of
Mormon to one guy, and he was so nice. He thought he should give me a
book in return. He had just purchased a Hardy Brother's book, and gave that
to me. He was Korean, but spoke mostly Russian. If he meets us again, I
think he'll be interesting to teach:)
Elder Diede's Korean is getting really good, he's improved so much. We really get along well.
Not much else to report this week.
LOVE YOU!!
