Well, we now know that Jaden will officially be leaving Korea on August 7th. Exciting!
It's three days later than we've thought, but we knew that nothing was official
until he got his actual flight plans. And actually, he told us that these were his
preliminary flight plans. Didn't know there was such a thing.
I just can't believe how fast it's all happening.
Jaden continues to do well. He told Chris he thinks he will be split from
his companion soon, and he doesn't really want that to happen.
Even though Jaden's the trainer and senior companion, he has told us that
he's learned so much from his companion. Honestly, I think Jaden has
learned something from each companion he's had. I'm so grateful for that.
He's a great example of humility to me. I will share his last letter home and sign off!
Hello again! The cherry blossoms hit their last stand last night. We had
a big wind storm and now most of the trees are bare again. But it was
so pretty this last week. And I just wanted to let you all know that it
was pretty.
The week was good though. Elder Song and I
have met lots and lots of people on the street. I'll share a story
about one man.We placed a Book of Mormon with this man. He smiled at us
as we said hello, and told us he could tell we were missionaries as soon
as he saw us down the street. He told us he believes the Bible because
there are no lies in it, and so he reads it lots. And he seemed so open
minded to the fact that the Book of Mormon was the word of God as well.
He was so fun to talk to, and after we got his number and he left, I
could help but walk with an extra spring in my step. Elder Song and I
were both so happy about it and it made the rest of the day much more
enjoyable.
This weekend we also were able to
watch General Conference!!! It was so good. As always. I especially
enjoyed Elder Pearson's talk on Sunday.
He talked about how we need to read the Book of Mormon and pray,
everyday everyday everyday. And how true that is! Before my mission I
didn't really do it ever, and now on my mission as I do those things
everyday, I've realized how much better it makes my life. And its the
same for all of you, and everyone! So, if you aren't already doing it,
start today! If you already are doing it, don't stop! Yep.
I love you all! I do hope each one of you has a good, fun, happy week!
Love,
Elder Roskelley
