Just another week, but great food!







branch bbq! 

tree removal 



Hello everyone! 

Its been just another week out here in korea! One fun thing we did this week was we helped a member with some work at his house and we removed a tree from the ground. But it wasn't a very big tree, so it actually wasn't a great fall, but I enjoyed it :)

A member in our branch also took us out for dinner the other day, and we had this steak that my comp thought had to have been expensive. So it was very kind, and very delicious!

Church of the week: so it isn't actually a church, but I found a high school called "The Holy Ghost High School" that was literally what it meant and I know that for sure! So I can just imagine it must be a good school, I'm sure they have a good mascot too :)

Our branch also had a branch BBQ and let me tell ya, Koreans know how to grill some meat! But I think people have the idea that Missionaries like never get full, which I do believe that when you become a missionary your stomach does change in someway or another, but it is rough cause people just keep giving you more and more!  But anyway it was good, we had a lot of people there who weren't members, so it was a great activity!

We're hoping to get a baptism next week! It'll be a little hard, so send prayers for this wonderful boy to be able to receive baptism next week please!

Much love for you all,
Elder Hanks

Baptism!


So yeah it was a good week!! We got that Baptism! Her name was C......... ( i don't really know how to make it english sorry) But she is actually a chinese girl who has been living here with her mom for a few years! So it was a really great service and there was a sweet spirit there and it was just wonderful! I was able to play the piano too, so glad i was able to use some talent Heavenly Father blessed me with (also thank you mom for making me learn piano ;) )President Jeong came too and it was just a great great experience! Ah the gospel is just amazing! So it has just gotten us really excited about like baptisms and stuff, and we're hoping for another one in the next 2 weeks or so, hopefully March 10th!

So that is just the good major news of the week, other than that we just did some group proselyting activity with our district, which was great cause with 10 missionaries you can literally talk to EVERYBODY! Also did an exchange with our Zone Leaders and those are great cause I am always able to learn so much from other missionaries and how they work

Church of the week: The church that I found this week was "The Great British Church"! So kind of fun that Britain's got a great church over here!

So there wasn't too much else this week, just a blessed baptism! So just so grateful for the restored knowledge that we have! I love how this church was "Restored" and not just made, it really has so much more meaning and strengthens my testimony of the church

Love you all!
