I got sick this week, because we spent time with a member that had a cold... that was our bad. (I’ve been drinking a lot of ginger lemon tea!) It kind of hindered our ability to go outside for a day, but we had planned an activity for Saturday that we had to prepare for. We were a bit stressed because we were scared no one would be able to come at all. We were texting and calling everyone and everyone said they weren’t able to make it! We wanted it to be a small gathering but if no one came it would be a big flop. We planned to not cancel it, go to our lesson and then go straight to the church and get it all ready for 7pm. WE had an interesting lesson with the Kim sisters, they were a bit tired and were acting differently than usual. We committed them to keep the Sabbath day holy. They are getting a little run down with these commandments we are giving them. They are keeping the word of wisdom, they fasted, they are reading the Book of Mormon. We reminded them of how these commandments make us more perfect, just like our father and as we can’t let the world’s standards affect our Fathers standards. Anyways, we got out of the lesson at 6:15 took a taxi to the church, told him about our thanksgiving party and invited him to it; I had sister Moyer sing him a song in the taxi! Ha-ha that was pretty fun, he dropped us off at the church, and we made sure he knew the thanksgiving party was on Saturday (he got a personal invitational jingle!). Then got to the church at 6:30 got the chairs set up and some people started coming. One family (an English class member who went to the Halloween party; her husband is a less active) and a less active member of the church with his friend that we play soccer with. Their names are Ben and JK. Our recent convert of the church came and played her violin after an elder played the piano. A member came a little later because he was teaching seminary in another room. Sister Moyer and I sang “Be Still My Soul” in Korean along with others. We bore testimony after our performances. During be still my soul, I felt the spirit so gently. As I sang the words, I didn’t worry about how I sang at the time but more of what I was singing. I felt that what we were singing was sincere and real. That brought the spirit and I bore a very simple testimony. That moment touched me and the music spoke to everyone, along with the spirit. Another elder brought the spirit as he played the piano "If you could Hie to Kolob” and “Come Thou Fount”. We asked after wards if anyone had anything to say. The wife of the family stood up and thanked us for this meeting. She talked about how she felt a special feeling that night. After the meeting others asked when we are doing the music night again! They loved it, when we thought they may have been bored! I believe they can find solace and peace as they meet with the missionaries and go to these sorts of activities. It was a very positive experience. The member that attended spoke in church the next day and talked about how he was thinking "there’s not very many people here, why aren’t there many people here?" and in his talk how that the meeting was amazing and that the missionaries are doing amazing work. I was really grateful for his talk. We are just the Lords tools, and He does the rest! I truly have a testimony of that. Ben, the less active came to church as well. Next time, we want to have an art gallery with someone playing the piano as they walk and look at all the pictures and read the descriptions of each one. We are keeping missionary work fun!!!

Great week!
