Finally Investigators!

We finally have investigators! We have three and they are all teenagers. So that's fun. Its a lot harder to teach teenagers than adults.
One we got off of an English flyer. His name is Kim Woo-Joog. His mom forced him to study English with us and it was slightly awkward and he's really shy but he's in middle school and I would be scared to if I was a middle school boy and two girls in dresses came to teach me English. His mom said that she would be okay with him joining our church, mainly she just wants him to talk more. Apparently he doesn't really talk to her at all. But she told us that when he commits to stuff that he throws himself into it so if he joins our church he will bring his friend too. We are meeting with him again this week and we will bring the elders to make him a little more comfortable.
Then our other two are a former investigator's kids. One's in high school her name is Choi sung-He. and the other one is in middle school his name is Choi Joog- Huk. Their mom wants us to teach them English as well. The boy seems a lot more promising than the girl right now. But they remember coming to church when their mom was investigating the church so we'll see where that goes.
Also one of our members, Sister Oh Kyung-Me gave us two referrals! One is a family that is just English interest right now because they will be moving to North Carolina in December for a year because the husband will be working at UNC so they want to be able to speak the language. They're great but mainly the elders have been teaching then so far. Then the other one is a girl named Da-Yeon she is in middle school too. She's one of Sister Oh Kyung-Me's students (Sister Oh Kyung-Me teaches English).

When we were soaked
We actually went to horse ear mountain with her on thrusday (its a montain whose peaks look like horse ears) and it was so much fun. There is a Buddhist temple at the top of the maintain and when we were there it rained SOOOO hard. I literally have never seen rain so hard ever. We couldn't see anything and we had to scream to each other to be able to hear. We got SOAKED. But it was so great haha. It was great: at one point I said that I miss going swimming and I wanted to go swimming because it was so hot, then after it rained and we were soaked Rebekah (who was also with us) told me "be careful what you wish for. God grants missionaries whatever they want." It was great :)
