We had a very busy weekend traveling. We took a train and bus for 5 hours to the very southern tip of Korea and stayed in homestays with people from the sister church. It was out in the country and we got to see rice fields and green tea farms. We got to see the view from the train window the whole way. The mountains were very beautiful. I read Psalm 95-97 in my devotions. It put a cool perspective when you are watching God's creation as you are reading it.
We taught English Bible camp while we were there. Some had never seen Americans before. I quickly learned to be flexible while there. They put me in a room full of middle schoolers and gave me a mic and 1 1/2 hours to teach them. I made the lesson up as I went along, because we didn't know beforehand what they wanted us to teach! It was rough, but a good experience though. While there, we went to the beach and a famous steel factory. We also visited a historic island where the Japanese killed many sick Koreans at a hospital. We got back on Tuesday, just in time to teach our normal classes. We only have 3 more days of classes. They are going very well now.



This is me trying on the traditional Korean outfit called hanbok. It was a lot of fun. The wig is queen's wig and is VERY heavy! I could hardly keep my neck straight.
Thanks for your prayers! We only have 6 days left and we want to make the most of the rest of our time here with relationships and experiences.
