Final goals... and blessings

Wow this week has gone by so fast and i have truly been so blessed. I don't have a lot of time so  ill make today's email breif but this past week has been amazing! :) so i set my goals for my last transfer a couple weeks ago and as time has been going by i have been really wondering how on earth i would be able to accomplish these goals. Ill be honest i was starting to get a little down towards the end of last week. The one that was particularly bothering me was that i had made it a goal to baptize one more person before i got home and long story short there wasn't anyone they we could find that would be able to get baptized in that time. I had been searching and asking members and praying harder than ever it seemed. and nothing was happening. last week i was starting to have the sad thought that i ddidn't think i would be able to accomplish that goal and that i would simply have to do everything i could to accomplish my remaining goals. But then i got a phone call. :) one of my old investigators from Daejeon committed to get baptized!!! IN 3 days!!!!! And not only that but he said He had to get baptized  by me and that he didn't want anyone else to baptize him :) anyways president gave me permission to make the 3 and a half hour trip up to daejeon to baptize him last saturday! and it was just an amazing experience all the way around! Just a testiment to me that even though it may not be the way we expect it to happen, the lord will always answer our prayers. :) anyways i truly have been blessed. and i know i have so much more that i still need to get done and that is simply one of my goals i wanted to accomplish but i am so grateful to the lord for all the blessing he has given to me! :) anyone i hope you all have an amazing week and remember the many tender mercies of the lord are with us every day. Usually not the way that we think but he is with us and will always answer our prayers! :) I lov eyou all!!!!:)

Time is flying... Lots to learn!

... haha its sure crazy how fast time is flying by. I still feel like i have so much to learn and do....haha wish me luck :) gotta become the man the lord needs me to be! anyways things here are going well :) we have been doing a ton of street contacting lately. haha it has been so fun to get to meet a whole variety of different types of people and hear their stories and talk with them and share our unique and wonderful message to them. some accept and seek to learn more and many refuse, but in the end i feel so blessed to know that the lord loves each and everyone of them and continues to give opportunities that they too might find the joy and happiness that comes from this message. so thats that but the highlight of my week was definitley conference. im sooo jealous you guys got to see it a week before me. but wasn't it absolutely amazing! :) so many of the answers i was looking for! :) The thing that really stuck out to me is how when we truly seek for the witness from the spirit, that the lord will give us that witness so that we can know for ourselves of the truthfullness of everything being taught. anyways things here are going well :) the work is going and the Lord is leading us everyday. im learning a ton and am looking forward to learning so much more. I sure love you all and hope you have an amazing week!

Last transfer

Hey everyone! :) Well this week has been crazy busy! I got transfered down to a little city at the very bottom of the mission called 순천 {Soon Chun}.It is really close to the beach so the weather is just amazing and the area is absolutely beautiful :) Still zone leader down here but instead of working with wards up in 대전 {Dae Jeon} im working with 3 small branches :) im super excited! Its definitely a lot different from what im used to but i know ill be able to learn a ton. my new companion is elder {Kim, Dae Won} 김대원! he is a recent convert and so it has been super cool to get to know him and hear his testimony and stories. He is the only member in his family and he came out here despite the fact that his family and friends all told him not to. He is the best! im excited to get to work with him. Anyways it is so crazy how fast time is flying by. i wish it would slow down a bit! :) haha anyways i hope you all have an absolutely amazing week! I love you all and am praying for you everyday!

Closeness to Heavenly Father, pics!

dang time is flying by crazy fast! heres the weekly update! :)
 things are going well here in 둔산. It seems as thought the ward's thoughts on missionary work are starting to really change. and we have seen lots of miracles lately. This past week we found 3 new investigators who all seem very golden. They have some word of wisdom problems it seems but i definitely think they will be baptized within the next transfer or so. we have also been really blessed as we have followed the spirit on the streets to find several less actives in the area that have been thinking about getting back in contact with the church. One guy we found this week was from south america and he has been baptized for two years now but hasn't been to church since he moved here. But since we found him and told him were the church was and got him hooked up with the english branch he is back on his way down the straight and narrow :) anyways i sure feel blessed to be serving here in the Daejeon mission. I have learned so much and the lord is continuing to humble me and teach me so much more everyday. I truly dont want this time to end. The spirit and closness i feel to my heavenly father that i have found on my mission is something i never want to get dimmed by the world. I know the Lord is with each one of us. and often things don't go the way we want them to, or the way we think is best; however as we trust in the Lord we always come to realize that the plan he has for us is so much better than any plan we could make for ourselves. anyways i sure love you all and hope you have an amazing week!

Being a progressive investigator

Hey family! :) well this week has been crazy busy! haha i barely had time to sit down for a meal most of the days! :) but that is just the best feeling as a missionary, and when you feel like you are just dragging yourself into the apartment on sunday night because you are so exahusted is awesome! :) haha anyways this week we were blessed to meet a new investigator named Spencer :) haha ya he is an american, so looks like im gonna have to brush up on my english :) haha but he has a ton of potential! he came out to church on sunday and absolutely loved it and wants to continually keep coming out so we are really looking forward to getting to meet with him! Keep him in your prayers, hopefully his name will be easier to remember than some of our other investigators :) anyways it is so great to get to be a missionary and to be so blessed to get to learn so much everyday. :) haha my new goal is to always be a progressing investigator for the lord! :) haha anyways not always is it comfortable or easy to learn, but it is definiltey always worth it! :) anyways i hope you all have a super awesome week! sure love you and am praying for you!

New comp

so got my new companion elder Hughes this week!!!:) he is so awesome! it has been so awesome to get to serve with him already and im looking forward to seeing the many miracles as we continue to serve together! :) we were blessed to find this awesome less active this week who says he wants us to help him get back on the straight and narrow! :) haha he says its going to be a bit of an underground straight and narrow at first but he will slowly tell his friends and try to prepare them to all hear the lessons as well! :) haha anyways me and Elder hughes 귀환 at pretty much the same time, so neither of us have much time left and we are planning on just baptizing Korea before we head home! :) Haha we started this 40 purification fast to basically try and prepare ourselves as best as we can to call down the powers of heaven, strengthen our zone, stake, and investigators and to do all that we can to truly become the men the Lord intended us to become while we are on our missions! One thing i have truly been grateful for recently is the power of the holy ghost! the power, comfort, strength, and guidance that come from the Holy Ghost are amazing! i feel so blessed to have such a glorious gift from my father in heaven! And i truly want everyone in the world to be able to experience such a wonderful gift! anyways im praying for all of you! :) i am so blessed to know the lord is with you all through all the trials and struggles of this life! I know he truly loves each and everyone of us! we are his children and he is our father! as we rely on him there is truly nothing we can't overcome! I love you all!!!

Families can be together forever, and pics!



wow another transfer has come and gone! I can't believe it! this morning we got transfer calls. I can't believe another transfer is about to come to an end. The time keeps going so fast i feel like i don't even have time to blink :) haha. anyways things here are going super well! we had a great week! One family we have been teaching has really started to opened up and the mom even said that they are already members of our church :) haha. i also had the cool opportunity to teach two people from ethiopia this week with the other missionaries in our district. it was so cool to see how the lord brings people together in all sorts of circumstances to provide them the opportunity to hear about the gospel. anyways so as far as transfers go. my companion 박재우 is getting transfered out ㅠㅠ it has been so great to get to serve with him! he is a great missionary and i have sure learned a ton from him. but im also looking forward to getting to serve with my new companion. His name is Elder Hughes and he comes from good ole' Gilbert Arizona!!!:) haha he went to Highland Highschool and im pretty sure we played against eachother in volleyball a few times! :) He is my younger 동기 so I cant wait to get to serve with him! :) anyways sure learning a lot that is for sure! :) recently i have been so grateful for the Topical Guide and Bible Dictionary in the scriptures! They make morning studies super exciting and they truly help to open the scriptures! :) they have also been super helpful in helping a lot of our investigators! :) anyways i am so grateful for the scriptures and the blessings and knowledge that come from them. There is definitely no doubt in my mind that this church is true! and that our savior, jesus christ, truly suffered for each of us, and that through him we can truly return to live with our heavenly father, and our families forever!  i sure love you all and hope you have an amazing week!
