This week was a kind of slower one for us. We had a lot of meal appointments with our members which was really good. On Monday we ate with our Bishop's wife because the Bishop was still at work and we gave them Step 1 of our member-missionary work program. The program is supposed to help show members how they can do missionary work in small ways and we're hoping to see some success out of it with our ward members. On Tuesday we ate dinner with one of our less-active members who loves missionaries. His name is Kim Seung Nam and he was baptized maybe 6 years ago. Anyways, we ate with him on Tuesday and Wednesday which was really good, we were able to share a message with him and we're hoping that he starts coming out to church soon. We've been meeting with another semi-less active guy named Kim Jong Chur and he is reall funny. He's 60 and he lived in New York for 10 years during the 80's so we occasionally visit him and speak English with him. He came out to church this Sunday though which was really awesome. We visited a couple of our investigators as well who have been in the hospital (the one from North Korea who's son has brain problems) and they were happy to see us. Her Husband (super less active member) to be (they didn't get married this week because her son has to stay in the hospital so it was cancelled) told us that we needed to baptize them while we were still here so that was reassuring to hear. We also have been continuously meeting with our alcoholic investigator and he's kind of on pause mode right now so we're figuring out a way to get him going again.
