Week 32: From Jordan

Well, it seems like the summer has completely settled in. I'm glad everyone is well and enjoying their time. I especially look forward to trying that fish fillet when I get back!
 
This week has mostly been a quiet one, though tttthere were a couple relly high points. The highest is probably our run in with Malvis. He's a student from Nigeria who loves God and all the ideas of religion, but doesn't like how churches force people to come. When we met him, he said he was interested in what we were saying and thought he should listen because he had a dream a couple nights before where he was on a stormy sea headed toward rocks, but he was saved and there were two guys "preaching" to him. We are looking forward to teaching him more. We also met a man from Iran who doesn't like what Islam has become, but would like to find another way to know God. We have been able to find some really prepared people. We just hope to start doing the same in Korean soon. ;)
 
Transfers are this week. Elder Redd will be training (probably a Korean). Elder Osborne is going to the next area over. I will be with Elder Pons in the other Imun area. Sister Deng is going over to the temple. We are back to one pair of sisters. It is going to be an exciting transfer. Elder Pons's area had already been doing a lot of foreigner work, so now that the Chineses part will be there too (unless Elder Redd's greenie speaks Chinese really well) we will be a bit hard pressed to teach a lot of Koreans... in Korea... That's a little goofy, but we'll see what happens.
 
Other than that, it has been a pretty normal week. The weather is getting hotter. Monsoon season seems to have skipped Seoul this year. Investigators are doing well, but everyone is still really busy... I don't really know what more to say. Things are good. :) I'm always grateful for your updates from back home and look forward to hearing more as time goes on.
Press forward with steadfast faith in Christ.

Best wishes,
Elder Jones
