This week’s big event was our musical concert. Our ward mission leader planned it with us, but he was trying to make it a huge event. So he invited some area 70's and our mission president to speak at it and we were supposed to get 5 investigators each (us and the elders in our ward) and then invite other missionaries in our zone to bring thier investigators too...so we had been advertising like crazy and practicing our 2 songs (Koreans sing sooooo well....I have no idea why they made the 4 deaf tone Americans sing) so that night, all our investigators were "maybe"s so it was stressful. The ones we thought would come for sure were all busy...but we did have 3 come! One of them came with her husband too! So it turned out really well! The other one that came is pak-jung-won... she should be getting baptized on the 19th! :) She’s a cute little lady 32 maybe, with adorable little baby girl, just needs to stop drinking coffee...and possible only attend our church and not 3 others haha. We are working on it :). The last one that came was a miracle..we met her on the subway, she gave us her catholic name, ree-oh-ba, but she took a Book of Mormon and we met her once after that, she studied German, and was a German teacher for like 20 years. My comp studied German too so they had fun talking together and I just tried to keep in the game of 3 languages at once haha. We weren’t able to teach a real lesson, just got to know her and then she said she couldn’t meet for a couple weeks but we invited her to the music program...and she came! She stayed after for the food and talked with a lot of members, and our mission president! :) haha Apparently her husband works at same school as president did , they might even know each other! Crazy, but president pretty much taught her the first lesson for us haha so hopefully she’s not too overwhelmed. but we can’t wait to meet with her again.
