November 2, 2020 Richland, TX (Week 2)

This week was pretty good! It’s crazy how fast time is flying by!!! I’m doing really good and I still love it over here! This week we had a few miracles and we found some more people to teach which has been amazing. Sorry these are so long haha. You don’t need to read it all in one sitting. I broke them up into days that way you can just take it one day at a time haha. A lot has happened this week though which has been exciting and also disappointing haha but its ok. There was more good then there was bad!
Monday we woke up and went and worked out then we went bowling which was way fun, then we went back home and we all changed and got ready for the day and then we went to Cavender’s and I got me some Justin boots which are wayyyy nice I absolutely love them haha they are the best. I also got a belt, belt buckle, and a bolo tie to complete the outfit. Then we all put our cowboy stuff on with our church clothes and we went to Texas Road House for Elder Johnson’s birthday and it was way fun and super gooood. 
Tuesday It was super rainy and freezing, but we biked to a members house for dinner which was super fun and then we went to Walmart right after to buy some gloves haha because it was freezing. That’s pretty much the only thing we did on Tuesday. 
Wednesday we went to the food bank in the morning and it was also a rainy freezing day but the food bank was pretty great. There was a lady there that wanted to pray with me, so that was pretty cool. Then after the food bank we went to Bishops house for dinner again and it was good. We rode our bikes there and it was like a 25 min bike ride and my tires were both super low with air, so it felt like I was biking a tank to their house. I also had a Korean tutor which went pretty well. After bishops house he drove us home because we went to go pick up some pumpkins and in his trunk he had these super creepy sculptures from his moms house and he said he was going to put them in his friends house for fun and he asked if we wanted one and so we took it and its the funniest thing ever. 
Thursday we did some facebook work at this office at our apartment complex. then I had another Korean tutor which was good. We went to Walmart to get a pressure gage for our bikes and while we were there we were trying to find a super cheap one and there was a Walmart worker that came over and asked if we needed help and he told us what we need was a pump that had a PSI gage on it and we told him we don’t want to spend a lot of money on one and he ended up buying one for us which was super cool. We biked back to the apartment and realized we didn’t’t give him our contact info, so we biked back and found him and gave him a card. We went to Brother Karl’s house for dinner, he was a less active but now he’s coming to church, and it was way fun. I talked to him all night and he opened up to me a lot which is super good. Then we went to the church and met with this sister who almost got baptized but ended up having troubles with the ward but she wanted to meet and ask us a ton of questions she found while she was doing more research on our church. That went pretty good, but she said she would come to church but she didn’t end up coming. 
Friday we biked to the church and we met with this lady from the food bank and she brought her husband and daughter with her and we set up family history for her and then I explained why family history is important and we went on to talk about our beliefs and it went really good! I expected us to only meet for like an hour but we ended up meeting for like 2 or 3 hours. Then after that we went over to another guys house we’ve been teaching lately and brought him a pumpkin and it was good. Then right before we went to bed another guy called us back and said he wants to learn more about who we are and what we believe in, so hopefully it will work out. 
Saturday I woke up and went to the church for meetings with President and it went really good. I told him I use to make videos for fun back at home and I did photography and I have a ton of camera equipment at home that I could have my family send me if we needed it, so if I end up in the tech zone I wouldn’t be surprised hahaha. then we went to the church to make a video with the tech zone and I met Beccas friend Sister Bergstrom and she is super nice and it was fun to talk about Becca and everything so that was really awesome! then we went bowling as a district for halloween and it was super fun! 
Sunday I went to church and It was my first fast Sunday which was really awesome. None of the people we are teaching came to church which was pretty upsetting, and they said they’d want to meet after but that didn’t end up happening either haha but its ok. Hopefully this next week we’ll have more luck with them. We made a huge dinner and a couple other elders came over and it was great haha
I’m doing great! I love you all so very much!! I hope things are doing great back home! 사랑해요!
