I will start with my companions:
Elder Diamante is from the Philippians. He is 24 and has a lot of experience. He is an amazing elder and has a awesome testimony.
Elder Peterson is from North Carolina. He is 18, I am younger, and is also amazing. They are great to be around.
I was called as a district leader so that's new!
Starting on day two of being here we also started teaching Kimsumi, in Korean. That is a story. We went into teach her and couldn't understand her. We spoke very slowly and she probably didn't understand us. We didn't know how to say good bye or how to say we are done or can we come back tomorrow. There was just this very awkward pause. When she closed the door after we left, we couldn't help but laugh. It was definitely a learning experience.
Korean is ... hard! Haha, I have had a ton of fun here, and I'm learning a lot.
The food is getting old, but that's ok, I have a secret stash of snacks :).
Sunday we had an amazing devotional. I also had to teach the district meeting. That was very interesting. We also got to walk around the temple. I woke up to an amazing seen of the mountains. They were covered in snow and clouds. They looked amazing.
I forgot to bring my journal with me . . . so I am trying to remember everything.
Tuesday we had another fantastic devotional. It was on the kind of missionary we want to become.
I love my teacher. His name is Brother Sung and he is awesome. He believes in teaching through... torture? He calls it positive reinforcement. He wants us to be able to withstand the pain that the North Koreans will inflict on use if they capture us. I will send some pictures if I can.
Love Elder Brown
