After i emailed you guys we went down to a part of our area called shillim 신림. It's cool. THere are a few less actives down there that we confirmed don't live there. the rest we weren't able to confirm...so that was sad. :( but yeah! We also visited a few members and left a message with them so that was awesome. then we had dinner and then we met 유성렬 Yoo Sungyour. he's a new investigator. mostly just english interest, but we're gonna see if we can switch it more towards the restored gospel of jesus christ. :) he's super cool. but yeah we just did like HTBT getting to know his background and stuff like that. then we came home and made calls for the week!
