To all the Elder Dobbins blog readers. I apologize for not posting for the last few weeks. I'm unable to locate the emails for January. If I find them, I'll post them. - Beckie
Im doing great!!! We met Seo minsu on saturday and it went good. he is not progressing as much as he used to be , but he is a really good kid and i wish the best for him. once he gets a testimony we wont have to worry about him at all. we also met Jennifer again this past week and she wants to meet us with her kids and talk about english and the church which was a miracle because they are so busy. she is a less active of about 20 years or so but she has a desire to come back to church that has been getting stronger and stronger.
AND FOR THE BIG NEWS!!!! IM GOING TO JEJU!!!!! actually a rally funny story because i should be on the island rght now, but we kind of missed the airplane due to traffic and a failure to leave 30 minutes earlier than the hour and a half early we left. it was the worst traffic i have ever seen but it was all worth it in the end because when we saw a huge bridge bumper to bumper we knew that we wouldnt make it so we took a detour and a subway and got some opportunities to share the gospel with others. and by the time we got to the airport we were too late to catch the plane.
so because of that i am sitting here in the mission office still and i wont get to my new area until tomorrow, but nonetheless it has been a fun day and now we need to find out what we will be eating for lunch.
The area on jeju i will be going to is the most southern one in the mission. it is called Seogwipo. and of the two cities, Jeju and sogwipo, is the less touristy one. it is a relatively good sized town and the branch there has approximately 20 or 30 members. i will be serving with an elder named elder wienken. and i have heard nothing but good things about him.
i also have run very consistently, especially this last transfer.
so the reason i haven't sent many pictures lately is because i lost my camera for a whole transfer and found it a few days ago, so i will send some today!!
Love,
Elder Dobbins
