"Dream Team"


Elder Lufkin and Elder Heyrend at Seoul Temple

Hey everybody!
Things are going awesome in Korea! Elder Heyrend and I had a really good week. The other missionaries in our zone are doing awesome too. There are 8 other missionaries in our zone and Elder Heyrend and I think they're pretty much the "dream team." We are all meeting up at our church today, since we have a gym in ours, to play some games and eat some lunch during P day.
Lots of cool stuff happened last week. A lady named Lee Mi Oak randomly showed up to church last week and afterwards told us that she wanted to meet with us to learn English and learn the gospel. During the week we met her and found out that she had already met with missionaries before and she believes in Jesus Christ and that Joseph Smith was called as a prophet and that the Book of Mormon is true. We set a date for 9/12 for her to be baptized through the priesthood! She does have some weird concerns about things like the word Jehovah being used in the bible and stuff, but we should be able to resolve them.
Another cool thing happened when we went to meet our investigator from South Africa named Earnest. We went to his hair shop and he wasn't there yet, but the girl that was working told us that she had been baptized in Nigeria and was looking for our church in Korea. Her brother is actually a Stake President in Nigeria! She plans to come to church at the English branch next week and she's going to refer one of her friends to us! Pretty sweet huh!
The Lord is definately guiding people to us that need the gospel and us to them.
Elder Heyrend is pretty good at making Korean food so we made some good stuff last week. One thing that was really good is called Boo Day Chee Gay. It has hot dog, spam, onion, green onion, Raman noodles, rice cake, Kim Chi, and Tofu in it with some other Korean seasonings and rice on the side. It was soooo good! We usually still eat American food for breakfast though. I'm not hard core enough to eat Kim Chi right when I wake up.
Well that’s what I've been up to. Have a good week!
Love,
Elder Lufkin
