On Monday, the 4 missionaries that were leaving to go home came to the office and spent most of the day with us. President and Sister Kim took them for dinner and then they got on a train to Seoul.
We also got a new AP and Office Elder. Elder Kim and Elder Seung.
Wayne and I did our first training. Wayne told them about their card and I needed them to sign 3 different papers and return to me.
Sister Kim talked about clothing and health.
This is all of them with their trainers getting ready for their first proselyting experience.
On Wednesday, we went with the District Leaders out to lunch.
This is the pan that you cook with at your table. The meat is underneath all of those vegetables. It is very good, though.
Ok, from left to right (in front) seaweed, carrots, beans (spicy)
and in back, kimshi, vegetable pizza, and fish patties.
On Thursday was MLC with Zone Leaders and Sister Training Leaders. We also got to stay for lunch. They ordered TGIF. It was a hamburger patty and some vegetables and of course, kimshi!
Great bunch of Elders and Sisters!
On Saturday, Wayne and I decided to do some more exploring. This is a walkway along a spillway that lots of people use everyday. We walked about 6 miles.
You can cross over on these stones.
Flowers are just now coming out. It was a beautiful day.
Cherry blossoms.
Don't know what kind of flower, but they were along the path.
On Sunday, Wayne had to talk in church.Elder Soffe translated for him. Since it's close to Easter, the bishop had him talk about Jesus Christ. He did a great job!
Sunday afternoon, I decided to make some sugar cookies. I found a cookie cutter in the apartment of a ginger bread boy. Anyway, I used it and called them Holy Ghost cookies. Brought some back to the office for our 8:00 pm meeting and the Elders thought they were cute. President Jeong choked on how sweet they were. Koreans don't eat sweet, except for ice cream.
Cute, huh?
That was our week. We also got notified that Wayne will be going to Tokyo next week to get his new Visa. He will probably be gone for 3-4 days. Hopefully it works.
Love you and miss you all.
We are loving your blog and wishing we were there (Maye only Andrea wishes it, she is getting a bit tired of the girls camp mission). We think the yellow flowers might be rapeseed. Your pictures remind us of our Hong Kong Mission - same toilets, same food, and everything is made out of rice, which we also though was tasteless and with an awful, rubbery texture. Looks like there are some very beautiful places there. We have a Korean missionary in our stake but we cannot remember where he is from. Love, Stan and Andrea
