5th MTC Letter

아머니와 가족: 안녕하세요!  (Hello Mother, and Family!) 

Holy Cow! It amazing to think that life still exists outside of the MTC and all the learning that goes on here. This week was absolutely great! There were many good things that happened, many lessons taught and learned, and progression in the language. Time could not be going faster!

On a sad note, the Provo Temple is closed every July for cleaning (?). It makes me really sad to think that my last visit to the temple for two years happened last Friday. The temple is amazing and I will miss it. 

On another good note, the MTC had a July 4th program for all the missionaries to celebrate the independence of the United States. At the program we had a speaker, and then we had an awesome patriotic musical number that was a flute piano duet (it was very good). Then, we watched the movie "17 miracles" about the Martin and Willie handcart company. It was pretty powerful considering the spirit of the event and the tone setting "They the Builders of the nation" and "Press forward Saints" that we sung right before the movie. Then, we went outside to enjoy an ice cream treat and the 4th of July fireworks. It was a very good day.

Today we get to Skype and teach real Korean members in Korea for our teaching practice!

I have learned a lot this week. And, as usual, the learning that comes to mind first is what impressed me this morning. In Preach My Gospel it states that the Gift of the Holy Ghost brings a host of blessings and is the key to salvation. Don't live under your privileges with this wonderful gift--it is amazing. "Angels speak by the power of the Holy Ghost, wherefore they speak the words of Christ; wherefore I said unto you, feast upon the words of Christ, for behold, the words of Christ will show you all thing what ye should do." This verse has defined the last 3 years of my life. Let the Holy Ghost guide you to greater happiness and enjoyment. He will--if you ask, in faith believing.

 여르분에게 저를 받은 도음을 위해 감사드립니다! (Thanks to everyone for the support that I have received!)

Have a wonderful week and good luck with the adjustment in Minnesota!

Ps. I would love to have a Corvallis Stake directory so that I can write people!
