Week One

Anyahasayo! Week one was probably the longest week of my life! It has been trying and frustrating. But anyway Ill tell you all about my companion his name is Elder Smoot, he is from farmington Utah. He is awesome he is a great example to me. He has a great testimony of the gospel and knowledge of the gospel too. We taught our first investigator on friday and it was so hard because we didn't really know how to say what we needed. But we prayed about it and taught her our first lesson. Our first lesson was on prayer and it went ok i guess she did pray and felt the spirit but we didnt really know she said that at the time haha. But I found that prayer really does work because we prayed that she would understand what we needed to teach her and she understood we got her to pray, read the Book of Mormon, and go to church. Ive learned alot about myself here in the MTC and one of the things is that before I didn't have faith in Jesus Christ I always relied on myself and learning Korean is really hard and you can't learn it in this amount of time with out faith in God and Jesus Christ. Ill be honest and say the first few days I was thinking "why could I just be called to a English speaking mission." but now i know that if I did go english speaking i wouldn't have the faith in Jesus Christ like I do now and I know that is one of the reasons I am going to Korea.

sorry i didn't really take very many pictures
