| Elder Kim, been out 1 year now on his mission. |
Hey family, this week has been a really, great week! We’ve
been working hard, talking to a lot of people, finding some, and teaching
others; it’s been great!!! Also, I made a year on the mish, so that’s cool,
haha. I am soo grateful for my Heavenly Father blessing me and helping me to
become the missionary and the man He needs me to be.
Some of the highlights from this week:
We did a division with the elders of Leiria, and I stayed
here in Coimbra with Elder Blackmore. He’s been out on the mish for about 5
weeks, and he’s from northern Idaho, like almost Canada, haha. It was super
cool working with him, and we were like running around all day. I was really,
impressed by the great attitude he has and was like wow, I wish I had thought
more like him when I was in my first transfer, haha. He said two great quotes
that I liked. "Walk everywhere, talk everywhere, smile everywhere" (In
relation to what we do as missionaries, I really, liked the smile everywhere
part cuz you don’t really, think about that, but it’s very important). "Milk
and cookies, that’s what got me thru high school" (lol sooo true haha).
We’ve been teaching this Romanian family and we got them
to church!!! They speak Portuguese, but it’s kind of so-so sometimes especially
with the gospel as the subject. Some of the words they don’t understand, so it’s
helping us to teach simpler. Also, the mom just got a job and it turns out she’s
working with one of the recent converts of the ward, so she’s got friends
already! We’re super excited for them! They also have a little girl whose just
sooo cute and reminds me a lot of sister when she was 4 years old.
Other than them we are working with a few other families
and its going really, well. Sadly, Elder Bortolo got sick on Saturday which
kind of held us back on Saturday and Sunday but he’s feeling better now.
We helped the other elders cuz they were having a hard
week, and we ended up finding a few cool people! Also, I helped another
missionary sort thru some doubts he was having. Really, helped me to see how
God has helped me in my life.
Family, I love you all! Thank you soo much for all your
love and support! I loved the pics! Right on with the fish!!! I love you guys a
lot. Have a great day!!!
com amor,
Elder
Kim
