Week 81: Transfers came and went. And nothing happened

This week has been a very quick week of missionary work, and transfers came and went. We didn't have anything big happen. We will be getting 2 new elders in our area and my companion and I will stay the same. It is great to see that missionary work and the gospel spreads throughout Geumejeong, Korea and the world. This last week was such a great week and we were able to accomplish much!

So Easter is coming up and the church has provided a great video that you can watch the Video, Prince of Peace on 
mormon.org!  It is a great short video about Easter and the role of the Savior. The Savior came to this earth and died for us and I love him for all that he did for us. But one of the greatest things is that he was resurrected meaning that we can live again with our families forever. Easter has such great meaning and I will share more later, but just think about what an influence Christ's birth and death have made on your lives and how blessed we are to have him as our Savior.

On Monday, we went to Haeundai beach and took pictures and played volleyball and then went out to eat. Then after which we ate a Indian restaurant and then went shopping and emailed. So we were able to do that and take a nap while we were at it. Then afterwards, we went on a short exchange with Geumjeong A team and I went with Elder Avila and we had a great time talking to people and finding amazing people to teach!

Tuesday, it rained, so we went outside in the morning and tried to find people to talk to, but there weren't that many people on the streets. But we kept talking to people and then studied for a little bit and then went to the church and got a lot of office work done.

On Wednesday, we went outside and we proselyted and found people to meet and talk with. We were able to walk and to find others and it was raining, but... It was definitely a good day doing missionary work and preaching the gospel. Also we met a new investigator who really wants to learn about the church and it was awesome!

Thursday we went adventuring and found some small villages that we had never seen! So we went and found some people over there and then we studied and then we went deep cleaned our house. After that came to the church and prepared for English class and the English members bought us dinner! Then we had English class and then one of our investigators came, so we taught him and then went home.

Friday, we had zone training meeting and we talked about Easter and the new Easter initiative that the church is doing., After that we came home and ate and studied and then went outside some more and then we had to get some more office work done, so went to the church and finished that up.

On Saturday, we were super busy! In the morning we went to meet a less active and then we met with multiple investigators all in different places, so we were super busy! Then we had English class and then the some of the English class members bought us dinner. So we were able to talk about the gospel with them and then we had to come back to the church to clean. Then later that night we got a call saying that the other Elders were being transferred and that Elder Jang and I would be staying together.

Sunday, we had church and church was really good and fun! I loved church and translating was a blast as well! Then after church we had several meetings and then we finished up some work and then went to our house to plan for this upcoming week. After planning we had dinner at the church and then got some more work done and that was my week!

It was a super busy week and we were able to meet some great people this week! I love being able to see the smiles the gospel brings to other people! It really is wonderful!

Love Always,

Elder Joshua Wilson
