I think I have found my niche in this area

Hi mom hi dad!
Sorry my letter was supperrr lame last week, so I’m going to make up for it this week! This week was senior week for me, and let me describe it in one word for you... STRESS!!!!!! Anyways, besides all the chaos, we experienced an amazing miracle. I told a lady I liked her purse and then we started talking.. and now we are teaching her and all her friends our English/gospel program!  We will have 8 new investigators! They’re all Christian and had interests in the book of Mormon. Missionary work isn’t that hard, you just have to complement them and they'll accept you into their home! haha just kidding, but that day we talked to 47 people! and one accepted our program. It just shows how much we need to do on our part, and the Lord will bring the people to us who are prepared, we just have to be looking for it and working for it. The goal I made this week was:
1. Live worthy to be trusted in God. -doing the things I should be doing at all times, work hard.
2. Trust God.- trust that he can perform miracles, faith.
3. Act. act upon the promptings and thoughts that are put into our minds.
Two weeks ago I was willing to talk to everyone that was put in my path; I was able to talk to people freely and openly, just getting to know people.  Not perfectly obviously because I’m not the best at this language, but I was willing. And when I came up to these ladies, I had the most direct prompting that I had to talk to these people. It was actually very weird, but it didn’t go away, so I tried talking to them. Nothing came from me talking to them, but I hope in my mind that maybe I helped one of them at that moment.
 
Anyways, I think I have found my niche in this area. The only friends I have in the ward are the children! and I feel the reason for that is because I am a child at heart!!  All that occupies my mind in the little free time I have is the cute lil mike wazowski from monsters university!! haha but actually, the children are the best teachers. This one cute girl taught me origami, and how to play Korean games, and taught me Korean words, even with the language barrier! I am so grateful for her and her sweet spirit. She is so kind and understanding of my inability to speak, but we find so much joy with each other! And because I can communicate with the kids, the families see that I am not a lame missionary! They speak so fast and we don’t know how to really communicate and they are wayyyy too serious. hah I’m learning lots and enjoying the little things! Loves and hugs!!!

Sister Wright 사랑해요!!!!!
