Saving Seouls : Elder Case

Hello Everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed your week and I hope you all enjoyed your general conference! We will watch it this week on Saturday and Sunday because of the time change, and I couldn't be more excited!

Other exciting news this week: I got a new companion! We went to Seoul on Wednesday to drop Elder Christensen off, and now I'm serving with Elder Case. I really don't think I've met a happier person in my life~ He just loves everyone and complements everyone, I'm really excited to serve with him. And I haven't even gotten lost once, that's the most surprising thing. Anyways, Elder Case is the same age as me, is from Utah, Speaks Spanish and American Sign Language, and now Korean and Korean Sign Language. So I'm trying to learn Korean Sign Language from him, I've only got the alphabet down so far though...

Also now that Elder Christensen left, I'm in charge of translating from Korean to English during Sacrament Meeting for the members of our congregation that don't speak Korean. Which isn't too bad, until someone shares a story about nuclear power plants and molecular interactions... At that point I just kind of laughed at how lost I was~

I've been a little sick for the past few days with a fever that has been up and down, so I've had to rest quite a bit but I do have some American brand medicine that does a pretty good job at keeping it under control :) We've got a busy week ahead of us though, so I'm hoping it will be gone by tomorrow~

Probably the highlight of this week was being able to set a baptismal date with 김대현(Kim Dae Hyeon). He is an 11 year old that we have met with a few times, and he decided that he wants to be baptized on the 23rd of this month. He's a super good kid, and I'm excited to see all of the progress he will make!

That's all for this week, I hope you all have a great one!

Love,

Elder Bigelow

PS Last week in English class the lesson was about body parts, so we spent the entire class naming a ton of body parts
