안녕하세요!

Hello all (안녕하세요),
 
Well, it's transfers once again and I'm staying here in Bellevue 7th, but something crazy happened. Now don't think I'm kidding when I say this, but this area is combining with the Bellevue Korean area. So my new companion's name is Elder Song. He is actually from Orem, UT, but he speaks Korean and don't worry, because he grew up here in America, his English is just fine too. So together we're going to not only teach our investigators, but also Korean people in the area, helping teach the ESL class on Wednesday nights with the Chinese and Spanish missionaries, and possibly still go to the Korean branch in Federal Way on top of our ward. So right now we don't have a ton of direction, but we're talking to President Larkin for further insight. Maybe when I get home I'll know a little bit of Korean. That will be strange won't it? But in all honesty, I am excited for this new adventure for the next 6 weeks. It will keep us busy and give me a new challenge.
 
This was an interesting week. We continue to meet with Ashley. She has come a ways, but still has a lot of challenges to work through. She has a really stressful life and she worries about things that she doesn't need to. And she has a lot of concerns. Many of them stem from her somewhat abusive past. But time and most of all, the Savior will heal those wounds. And she will continue to learn.
 
On Saturday night we had dinner with our WML and his wife, brother and sister Yool, and also Nathaniel and his wife Siti. We watched the film "Joseph Smith: Prophet of the Restoration" with them. It was a good reminder about the life of the Prophet and his work. And it helped him understand their new church also.
Sushil is back this week so we'll meet with him soon.
 
So I'm in for an exciting last transfer! Things are going well, and the Lord is blessing us because this is His work and this is His true Church!
