Apr 15 - Apr 21

You can tell that everyone is getting excited for transfers and going home.  We have 6 missionaries going home and 7 coming in.
Our Korean Assistant Elder Kim left for military sign-in for three days.  All Korean males have to serve in the military.  They have to sign up be the time they are 22.  Elder Kim is 25 and his three days of military sign-in is required each year after they have done their active duty.  So Elder Soffe is off with the President driving him around so that he can do interviews.

During District meeting they had Elder Guthrie go out and get blind folded.  He was told to not listen to any ones voice but his companion, who would lead him to the prize.  When he left the room, we were told to say nothing at all, not even his companion.  He came back into the room and just waited to hear someone talk.  Of course no one did.  Then Elder Soffe whispered to him to listen to the spirit.
It probably didn't work out exactly how they wanted, but they were able to make the point of sometimes we listen and sometimes we don't.  We don't get anywhere when we don't listen.  And even after listening, sometimes we make the wrong turn.

He totally missed the table.

Ran right into his companion.

Rice Herb Cake

This was like eating a really thick glue.

Got my hair cut on Saturday morning.  The lady is so nice and she seems to understand my hand signals.  At least my hair looks nice when she gets done.  There were two other ladies in the shop and when I got done, they both said something to me in Korean and then put their thumbs up.👍 I guess they like what she did also.

So, they don't do anything here for Easter.  No eggs, no candy, no nothing.  Even in church, the talks were not about our Savior or the Resurrection.  Kind of sad.  It was the Sunday for a meal after church.  So we decided to stay.  They had rice and a curry ham stew.  It was very spicy and did not sit well in my stomach.  I had to eat some Tums all afternoon.  We watched the beginning of the Ten Commandments in the afternoon.  Also, I decided to make a small cake to take to the missionaries in the office when we went over for our Staff meeting.  But it decided to overflow the pan and we had so much smoke in the apartment, we had to get out the fan and open all the windows.  I'm sure the people that live next to us was wondering what was happening.  Anyway, we did get it all cleared out.  I guess the pans here aren't the same size I'm used to.  Live and learn.

So Happy Easter everyone.

We love you and miss you all.
