We are doing well with our finding!!!!!!! All because of Elder Torres!
원주 Is doing really great! I did a Exchange with them! And they are very energetic!~ They are really energetic because of the new English Connect Classes they are going to start up, but because that energy, it is flowing into other parts of the work. I love being the Zone leader of missionaries out in the boonies!
This last week in Dong-Hae I have prayed for a confirmation on whether or not it is possible to hit our Goal for 24 investigators before the end of the year. I was scared that our goals were too high! But, I can say that because Lehi and Nephi or big examples to me, I have learned how to confirm things that I have heard from my leaders. After all that is how Nephi had all his visions, because he prayed about what his leader/father said.
"And it came to pass that I, Nephi, being exceedingly young, nevertheless being large in stature, and also having great desires to know of the mysteries of God, wherefore, I did cry unto the Lord; and behold he did visit me, and did soften my heart that I did believe all the words which had been spoken by my father..."
PMG~ "Hope is an abiding trust that the Lord will fulfill His promises to you. It is manifest in confidence, optimism, enthusiasm, and patient perseverance. It is believing and expecting that something will occur."
I have complete trust in the Lord that if I try my very best and pray every night for how to achieve these goals, I know that he will help us!
The members here are really on board with us missionaries now. Like never before. They too want to be a part of the big movement of English Connect here in Korea!
Elder Torres is doing great! He is so smart when it comes to the Gospel! I love him! I am inspired by him! I hope that I am teaching him as much as he needs so that he doesn't have to go through the same trails that I had.
I am so very grateful for the leaders in the church. Because, I know that the power in a calling all comes based off of the amount of support and respect that comes from those that are being watched over. Our leaders like Parents, Bishops, Stake Presidents, Mission Presidents, Prophets have the inspiration, wisdom, and revelations that we need to hear, right now. I know that our leaders have been prepared to become the spokesman of the Lord for us where ever we are.
"You are in the right time, in the right place, but now it is up to you to do the right thing."
Lots of love,
Elder Alger
The part of Korea I live in it feels very dystopian like, because there are these really huge, high quality buildings in patches surrounded by farmlands and shacks.
Just around.
We are officially starting our class on Saturday and Sunday! We are excited! I love doing service here by teaching English! But, now it has finally became a more organized force Organized by the Church, but in Korea we take it to the next level!
Promotion activities for English Connect!
Elder Torres just taking random pictures of me while I was checking up
on how our investigators were doing
If you want to learn how to make Korean food you need to go to a restaurant and ask them questions about everything they did to make it. Some restaurants aren't willing to tell you everything, like what is in their sauces. haha!
A new person we teach really wanted to treat us with a lunch and I will never say no to a Korean BBQ~! Glad to say we ate it all. Elder Torres got a picture of me eating grilled garlic left overs. haha
Dried persimmon!!! I never knew what persimmon was before I came to Korea, but Koreans love it!
People we teach take us to cafes a lot, because the youth think it is
weird to have us come into their homes.
