Elder Brinton Johnson's Mission Site

Hey family,

It was wonderful to talk to you this last weekend. It was really good to hear all of your voices. How was the rest of your week?
I had a wonderful week. On Monday we went up on a little mountain next to the church for a hike with our ward. It was way fun and I got some cool pictures. Then we came down and had lunch at the church. There was a huge pig laying on the table and I felt like I was at a Tongan luau. It was way good.

Yesterday, though we went as a zone up on this big mountain near Seoul and had a zone conference. It was amazing and I learned a ton. It honestly changed my mission and my life for good. I'll write a letter about it.

Our investigators are doing well...we're picking up new ones pretty steadily. I hope I can give you more news soon.

Thats really sad to hear about Ali. Tell them im praying for them...

Tell Griffin I said hi and that I still have that "fitness authority" dogtag thing. He might not remember. Tell him to send me a real letter!

I'll have to send some pictures of our church and the big one in our stake. They still look like mormon churches but they're just cooler.

So the reason the house is so small in such a rich area is becuase well...it's rich...missionaries are not. So we live in a ghetto apartment. We found out its officially the smallest in the mission though! That's braggin points.

I really like the ward a lot. A lot of them can speak english really well. Most of them have been to America at least a few times. They don't feed us like the last ward but they do pretty good. I'm still getting to know them better. The bishop is great though. I like him a lot.

I'm really really sorry...I haven't sent dads birthday gift, moms mom day gift or a letter yet....no time lately...I'm doing my best! Sorry this letter is so short. I love you and have a great week.!!

Love Brinton

p.s. I made myself a Korean name...(from chinese characters, thats how all Korean names are.)
