I got my First Baptism! [week 16]

You guys are not going to believe what happened this week! So I was on my way to the missionary house doing missionary things. I was the missionariest missionary that ever missionaried! ...

Just kidding. No baptism.

But what did happen is my companion and I found some great people to teach. Including a cute American from Arkansas. Her name is Mollie and she is cute and she is an English teacher and she is also very cute. Good thing my heart is locked or I would be more focused on how cute she is than how cute her eternal SOUL will be when she is baptized! 

We also kept teaching the 윤s (yoons) I forgot their full names and it's disrespectful to only say their last name so don't snitch. Shhh🤫 the daughter seems like she could be baptized. She believes in God and wants to know more. The father is just happy to let his daughter explore her interests and learn English for free. I like them. 

We played basketball with some guys. One of them just plays basketball with missionaries sometimes and we get to know whoever he brings over. Oh and me and elder Titensor lost three out of four games... I'm 6 foot 4! Losing is unacceptable behavior for a representative of the church. On offense I could just stand under the hoop and Titensor passes the ball high and I can shoot over and over while the guys on the other team try to leap for a rebound. I'm not even jumping this whole time. So how did these super short Korean fellows get the drop on me and Titensor??? They were NINJAS! and it was icy... and I'm not that good at basketball... and I went easy in them to get them to like me and be baptized. 

I have been getting better at the language. I made up some sentences that Koreans could understand. It was good stuff. 

It has also been a good week for teaching and learning. I know it's because of my family's prayers and the help of the Savior. I love you guys, and I encourage you all to read The Book of Mormon and pray every day. It helps.

PICTURES!!!

All the pictures with a bridge or water were taken today at a lake.  That was fun.






I ate an octopus! It was scrumptious.

The statues were made by a friend from hello talk that I am both hello'ing and talking to. Aren't they awesome?

Allright love you guys, that's all folks.
