Week 38: Where is the time going!?!

This week has gone way too fast.  It has been hot, and we haven't had a
lot of people to meet with, but wow it has gone fast.  It has been
great this week.  Today I don't have a whole lot of time, but I
really am so glad that I am able to write to my loved ones every week,
and I'm so happy to be here in Korea!

So for this week, I want to talk about the Book of Mormon.  Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have a nickname  “Mormons” because of the Book of Mormon.   
So, what is it actually about??  

The Book of Mormon is an “Another Testament of Jesus Christ,” as its title page says, and also contains the record of the ancient Americas, and even talks about Christ coming down and directly teaching the people of the Americas.  Also the book contains many prophecies from people called prophets, who testified of the coming of Christ and even prophesied about our current day.  Through reading this book, I know that everyone is able to learn so many things, especially the fact that Jesus Christ is our Savior, that Heavenly Father lives, and that families can be together forever.  I know that this book is true!!  If someone wants to know these things, and to know that all the things that we say are true, he/she must read this book with a real intent, and ask our Heavenly Father, believing that he/she will receive an answer!!  I am attaching a link of a man in England testifying about this truth,
and I ask that you watch it at least once!

So on to the week.  On Monday, we had P-day!! Last P-day, we had a
district P-day.  So, we went over to some other Missionaries’ area and
played some games, which my companion and I planned, and then we came back to our area, shopped, got to email for a little bit, and had our
Family Home Evening.  At Family Home Evening, we played some great
games - everyone was happy.  Then we returned home.

On Tuesday, we got to study in the morning, and then got to go outside
and talk to people.  Then we visited You Il in the Prison. He was very happy actually, just like he usually is.  Then we again went outside and taught more people, and came back and had a meeting with our sister team. Then we taught English ---- and that was kind of our day!

On Wednesday, we went over to the other missionaries' area and we had a meeting for a little bit.  Then we exchanged companions - I
stayed in that area while my companion came back to Miryang.   For the
entire day, we were outside talking to people, and found a super nice
lady, who has met with the missionaries before.  Then, we looked for houses, and finally we got to teach English class --- the class was great!!

On Thursday, I returned to Miryang, and my companion and I went walking outside, and talked to people for the entire day!  We even met a half Korean, Half American family from Dallas Texas; they wanted to
learn Korean from my companion and me, so we talked to them for a bit.
Then we walked around and talked to other people.  Also, we got to visit our North Korean friend at night -- that is always a blast!!

On Friday, we met with the family from Texas, and had a blast.  We shared a message, and it looked like they had a great time.   Unfortunately they are only back for summer vacation, but that is all right!  Then we got to go clean up the horse stables.  After that, we returned home, got ready, and went outside, and talked to more
people.

On Saturday, we had another baptismal interview.  So, we went to the
church and talked to the person.  Then we went out, had lunch, returned to the church, and had English class.  Then we cleaned up the church, went talking to people, and that was really our day.

On Sunday, we had church.  After church, we went to talk with
other people, and then called one of our investigators to see if he
had time.  Luckily he did, so we met with him.  Then we went out with the sisters and got to share our happy message with others ---and that was really our week!

It doesn't sound as busy as you would think, but it really is and time
sure flies!  I love you and miss you guys so much!!  Hope you have a
great week!!

Love Always,

Elder Wilson
