Week Sixty-Four: Chistmas

Dear People,

Gwanyang has on average about 40 members each week, for the last several months we have been trying really hard to push it up to 50 with is when we can get a bigger building. The week before Christmas Eve 49 people came and so we really wanted to make Christmas eve push our average over. President Ahn committed each of the members to invite someone to church and they followed through. 
We spent this whole week preparing for the seventeen people who the members, Elder Jackson and I had committed to come to church. On Saturday night we exercised some faith and set up all 74 chairs we had in the building.
On Sunday morning, not all the chairs were filled, but almost. We had 20 nonmembers show up making 66 total.
So yeah, we're getting a new building!

Lot's of spiritual experiences and growth this week, we actually have investigators with some potential right now so hopefully stories to follow. Sorry my emails have been really lame recently, I'll be better. Maybe.

-Elder Brown





I finally got to make lemon squares.



This guy occasionally walks through the Suncheon shopping center dragging a cross and preaching calls to repentance through his loud speaker. I love the expressions of the people looking at him. 
We got to talk to right before I took this video. He said he really likes our church's Bible videos.
