So last week was pretty good for me here in Suwon. My old companion Elder Wedam switched rooms and is now serving with the other Elder in my area, and I picked up my greenie on Thursday last week. His name is Kang Ju Yur and he is super funny. He's 20 years old and was actually called to serve in the New Jersey mission, but because of school he was allowed to start early here in the Daejeon mission, then in May if he gets a visa in time he will go to the MTC and then out to New Jersey. So he literally started his mission last Sunday and has now been serving for about a week. He's really awesome though, he's studying to become a pilot and he's really good at soccer so last week we played soccer with some members up in Suji and they loved us because he could play really well. We got invited to play with them again so we'll probably go up there this week again. We're looking forward to good things in our area though, today I got a call unexpectedly from a Choi Sang Seop (the drunk man that accepted a baptismal date about  2 months ago) saying that he wanted us to visit him again so we're going to probably visit him tomorrow and see what we can do to help him out. Our investigators are good too, like always none of them have made a commitment to be baptized yet, but we'll get them soon haha. Right now in our ward we're focusing on working with our members and getting close to them so last Saturday we went out and played some baseball which was pretty fun. I suck at baseball and so did everyone else there so we all had a pretty good time. This next week is looking pretty busy for us as well so we're looking forward to it for sure!
