This week I have thinking a lot
about service and what it means to serve. Service is really interesting because
it is helping others without expecting anything back, but in all realisticness,
as humans we all expect something back. But something that I have learned from being
a missionary is that time runs fast and you can't keep track and you end up
serving all the time and don't realize it. Then at some point, you figure out
who you are and it is great because that is who God is molding you to be!
Last Monday we went out to a
little hill and went hiking. It was super great and we could see the airport
and all the planes taking off. Also we went down to some nice volcanic rocks
and climbed on them! It was super awesome and we had a blast!
On Tuesday, we had a lot of
meetings with investigators. So we studied in the morning and every hour we
basically had an appointment. So we went from one place to another place and
then met with some great people and when we had time at the end of the day we
went out and talked to people and shared the gospel with them.
Wednesday was full of
appointments as well. We went outside of a good chuck of the day and then
instead of going to our service project we met with a less active and we had a
great lesson and he is progressing in the gospel very much! Also we went
outside and played some basketball with another less active that was leaving
for America on Friday morning!
On Thursday, met with the
member that was going to America on Sunday and talked with him and had some
lunch with him and then we went and met another investigator and talked to him
about the gospel and he super enjoyed it and then we helped some people come
unto Christ as we talked to them on the street. After which we had English
class and
English class is always a
great way to serve others.
Friday was an exchange, so we
had district meeting and then we had exchanges. I went with Elder Stewart and
we were able to go outside and find some good people and then went to meet an
investigator and then after all of that we went to play basketball with some of
our
investigators! It was an
extremely productive day!
Saturday, we went to a place
caleld Jungmoon and played soccer with another branch on Jeju and then we
started an exchange with our B team! so I went with Elder Seol and we went
outside and talked to people and were able to really get to know tohers. Then
we went and had some great food with a less active member and then we went to shinjeju
and played some basketball with some more investigators and it was great!
On Sunday, I got to translate
and we had a great time at church. Afterwards we watched 17 miracles with the
branch and invited some investigators to come and watch and they did! Then we
went home and then talked to some people and cleaned up the church a bit and
then met with some members and had dinner!
Love Always,
Elder Joshua Wilson
