The Scrolls

 October 20, 2025

My comp is gonna die here in a week or two so we met up with a man this week who promised my comp earlier in his mission that he would made him scrolls. This guy clutched up for me though and made two for me!  Didn't know it until we met him and he handed me a bag. They're so tuff. He told me to give him a call at the end of my mission and he'll make me more.

I asked my bishop what the pin on his suit was for at church yesterday. Apparently he earned a fat medal because he did 3 years of combat in Vietnam. (감독님 has a kill streak.)

We actually had appointments this week finally. Our English class popped off too, we had three new people come. We watched the Spiritual Message about the boys putting silver dollars in a farmers shoes at the end of class and they were all glued to the story. I love that one. 

I met a college-age teaching friend this week for the first time, he was so goated at English and a super cool dude. Apparently he has beat all of the elders he's met in arm wrestles, and he challenged me right before we left. Bro got his knuckles clacked on the table, twice.

I'm headed to an island right now, and I'm taking my guitar. I don't usually like taking my guitar because because everybody hates that guy, and because that's a stereotype I'm trying to avoid, but my comp is taking a piano-- so I think that people will probably think I'm normal in comparison. I'll put some pictures of the ocean and island in the photos. The weather got mad chilly today, it's absolutely fire. President said we can put our feet in the water today, but it lowkey might be too cold for that. 

Alright I'm back. It was fire. You can't see the horizon anywhere else in Korea cause there's always a building in the way, so that was dope to let my eyes focus on something far away. The ocean is perty and we ran up some football. 이겼다 dw. (I did not play my guitar) 

Spiritual Thought: 

By recommendation from my Dad, I watched Elder Bruce R. McConkie's last general conference talk. He passed away from cancer soon after, and so listening to him speak of the saviors atonement was pretty dang spiritual. His very last testimony is one of the greatest I've every heard. 

"I am one of his witnesses, and in a coming day I shall feel the nail marks in his hands and in his feet and shall wet his feet with my tears. But I shall not know any better then than I know now that he is God’s Almighty Son, that he is our Savior and Redeemer, and that salvation comes in and through his atoning blood and in no other way." 

I reccomend listening to him say that himself, its much better than just reading it. It would be amazing to say that my testimony couldn't be any stronger even if I met Christ in person. Like Elder McConkie we can all gain that strong witness. 

Love you all. Church is true.
