I will do my best to make you all proud. if you have any questions just ask. and if you need any encouragement just ask. i dont really know what else to say other than i will be sure to not start a war with North Korea while i am gone. fingers crossed. lastly i have also done lots of thinking concerning what i am going to do after my mission.

There is no greater calling i could have accepted at this time in my life.

Please read it. it is my solemn testimony to you all that i am not ashamed of this Church and Gospel. if i ever was before i no longer am now. the senior districts left on monday and i miss the so much. below are pictures of me with the Korean Elders and Sisters. we get the new branch members today. im so excited to meet them. its going to be a great mission. i have become great friends with so many people. especially the Koreans. i miss them so much. almost as much as my family. and i will be able to see several of the Sisters when their missions end before mine and they come into my mission area. its where most of them live. so thats going to make my last months fun and powerful. i am so glad to serve the Korean people. and i cannot wait to some home and use korean. and i am actually considering maybe i should live in Korea afterwards. Who knows? only God. I'll leave it to him. God be with you all till we meet again.</span><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Pictures...</span></div><div><img id="id_423c_18b5_bf9e_97b" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh975SP919SBWWsQ2srL-sdrgKY-YwC6OSWnA-b80L4ub5kr8FbIneB5bq0zmWdx2coV1RvenT34N4i5uiPd8Zbz0OJSxf5QWmI1bKt8OVZAKTbwFZM_2h95AFZdd2-JZWXjCRb/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><br></div><div><img id="id_e37b_806e_88f3_10c8" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcz7SBsJjBRNhL9UlgPO07D3OtsU1rGgg48B1sc2n63oCyzW29LnNLolDoCwkYeC-gd-hqTRY7uFwO_RoCFzk8ZHXKU04xeBkTblXNW-wzu1XvbZX50AMBRJ8V-qgL9iNHULxt/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <br></div><div><br></div><div><img id="id_a997_a3d8_de57_1b98" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjm74q_CdL5kKNeCwm_23k6Tfa0HFI9v_SXGHaMUeE1ZQLuY1f6Du_lXdtl6X04PW4B_aANC7qOmGMtF4Gb5XSGN6FaPNNfA4NaFZ8mj-PwUj3_frxyNPAMryhlwcDMb0OxD0XC/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <br></div>Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04713370806337926891noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36190449.post-41346208069502843962016-05-30T18:47:00.001-07:002016-05-30T18:47:10.295-07:00MTC week 6<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hello everyone. Elder Pettijohn here. So this week is just great. We had Dallen H. Oaks come speak to us on Tuesday for our devotional. He spoke mostly concerning missionary work and ways to better effectively conduct missionary work. but to our surprise these were the exact same things that our teachers had been telling us since we had been here. i testified to me that we had the best teachers we could possibly get. I underwent more grief this week. i was teaching an investigator again and we had for 4 weeks and he wasn't understanding what the Holy Ghost was. so i tried to expound onto him what i know and feel through the Holy Ghost but i did not know the words. it filled me with so much grief that i could not tell this man, this living soul in the way i desired that we know how to save him and bring him unto Christ. but i couldn't. i sobbed from this grief and understood through it that maybe i should strive harder in my learning and studies to become more wise and learned in the language and ways of the Lord. i hope and pray that each of you are safe and blessed where you are. God has a plan for each of you. even though you may not see or understand it now, it is there, and He is there to help you if you only come to him with a broken heart and a contrite spirit and real intent having faith in Christ that your prayer will be answered the Lord shall shew unto you what he wilt that thou to have.

Our teaching is not progressing. it is so hard. I need to keep my head fixated onto the end result and that is to invite others to come unto Christ to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man. I miss you all and i am glad to know you. I would ask that you keep me and my companion in your prayers to help us. I have one last thing. an experience of mine. I was in the residence on Sunday and i had been feeling distraught and not really feeling like i belonged in the MTC and one of my fellow senior elders gave me a blessing that actually became direct revelation given through the Holy Ghost. i sobbed from my joy of being able to know through the spirit that i was to stay and be a missionary and that my Heavenly Father loves me. I love you guys and thank you.</span><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">No pictures😟</span></div>Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04713370806337926891noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36190449.post-9823316073982890142016-05-30T18:30:00.001-07:002016-05-30T18:30:28.906-07:00MTC...week 2 or 3?I think he missed a week or we didn't get the second week.<div><br></div><div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hey everyone,</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> Your favorite missionary is still here and very surprised at all that has been happening to me. I am now able to testify my feelings into Korean which is very good and i also learned a few other things. like how to use to spirit to testify of my feelings and not my knowledge of words. it was really humbling to have no ability to tell my first investigator what i feel and know about this gospel. then there was General Conference... Ive never seen Elder Holland cry...ever...and i really felt that he loved me and that all the leaders of the church loved me. and that my father in heaven loved me, that he loved me so much he sent his son to take all our sins and suffer agony and turmoil that we couldnt imagine even in our darkest dreams. i now have a renewed testimony in this gospel that it is the restored church of Christ. it also made me realize that even though i am a missionary i have so much spiritual growth to undergo. i hope i will be able to make you all proud. thank you for supporting me. i am doing well other than that. the food is good and the people are great but i am having trouble with my companion. its my fault mostly but im working on it. i have been incredibly busy and hardly had time to sit down and just think but i know its for the best. If any of you have questions please let me know. if you know anyone who would like to email me let me know as well. I miss you all, and i love you all from the bottom of my heart. thank you for being there. until next week. </span></div></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Pictures...</span></div><div><img id="id_22f3_dc94_5ed6_c6da" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-jgqimQrG07-RvQnAy733jUxM0h2BDdBgxwnFz_lj_K8veMDUz6m_q6JSwUOuZ8SrUHSIJpC-SXG2FGswuFsrGrAow3RqlV7emtDfDTb0vKmWiJbUFcsei-6XBpGmh111p5rj/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div>Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04713370806337926891noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36190449.post-26143056300085525242016-05-30T18:24:00.001-07:002016-05-30T18:24:48.474-07:00Missionary Training Center week 1 <b><u>Week 1 email</u></b>...<div><br></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Hey everyone. so i made it through my first week and it has really been quite the experience. i didn't cry until the day before yesterday even though i expected myself to do so way sooner. i have been learning the language every day and i never would have gotten to the level i have gotten to in a week than i would have at any other language class. this really is one of the hardest things i will ever undertake and i hope i will be able to endure to the end. my companion is a very kind and spiritually minded Filipino Elder who is actually from Manila in the Philippine Islands. the remainder of my district is very spiritual and actually quite fast at acquiring an understanding for the language. Korean is actually simple in concept but to carry it out is an entirely different thing all together. imagine how Yoda speaks like his sentence structure how its subject object verb while regular english is subject verb object. imagine it in a different language entirely and add word markers for the place a word is in a sentence and depending on if a word ends in a consonant or a vowel it car change the subject or object marker that ends a sentence. yeah its pretty confusing. we are also teaching return missionaries who pose as investigators who speak only korean and understand no english whatsoever. i was practically dead weight in these lessons becuase korean is very difficult for me to memorize and after my 3rd meeting with him i cried so hard because i couldnt let him know with all my limited knowledge of Korean how i feel about the gospel of Jesus Christ. when i would teach people who understood english, i being wise with words would use my knowledge and vocabulary to say the things i thought they wanted to hear...I never used the Holy Ghost to guide my words to tell them what they needed to hear. and in here i am learning to do just that. to put the power of the holy ghost behind my words. even now as i type this i feel a burning in my bosom that what i am doing and learning is necessary in order for me to progress in this life to be a better son, brother, grandson, cousin and future spouse to that one lucky gal...who i will hopefully find someday... anywho so in other news M. Russell Ballard came on Easter Sunday to speak to us. and it was quite moving. i have 7 1/2 more weeks here at the MTC and im sure they will be chock full of good times. what else... oh the food here is good im sure i gained 10 lbs since being here i really need to eat healthier. i can exercise pretty much every day and i know from that that i am also very out of shape from all the working and job aplications i filled out after getting out of Youth Challenge. i need to get back in shape. if you know anyone who would like to email me or would like me to email them let me know. but only if i know who they are alreay cause if i dont then its just weird. anyways i you guys are awesome for letting me email you. Thank you and Laters.</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Elder Pettijohn</span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Pictures...</span></div><div><img id="id_acc2_43f7_f3f_9c3" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_UBb6U5LkT5LRr2N26-faZZd7elzktFDwhE4GQvmnI1u3vFKRnS1I4hrzEjwphZElbx3DI32JP2du1fTXfPwagZEIOtgzgnWTBV0TcRaD47EyY3nQSp_nwjs2U0iPwEZhB0TI/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><br></div><div><img id="id_b5cf_20d_47b_5ff2" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmE-0tI-sO8HcECnNxRPpBQVMnRpgN0Q1awwzPEbRCDScQrBXD_GGLY7X838EA4LUVfTUAECB6N343Cm40-33LksJ8WqXIM9M2A75Df7_pB_AVor05s06HEWXJPhrHah-shZgb/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <br></div><div><br></div><div><img id="id_a644_bf06_e736_3f69" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3rx6gE5LnRSU9akc7r2Mbir3rJn47oaS6p1bPvHjeBYxwQwIvBAck0NseWzxHHsW0H27TY161LwYPR98DhLV3mmzfRvcUwWxor6tFJOAv9LpiVqgyzPypJmYd2pYgoLk5n94g/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <br></div><div><br></div><div><img id="id_6da7_a640_6139_4e98" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7uj49Dh4i7t5SUhX8c0v6UCu4xoBqmpmjqpDE8OLKlIlZDTDnoBfBiEMw7dQAQRLEkU7VR_5dItUGamOg1VJ2PfNh2_A2HsUphFP3d6CT5qIyIaAGUIidd_HMGkU7ul6Ua22T/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"></div><div><br></div><img id="id_c0df_55e3_a9e3_3486" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhizwa0NoTyXl6xQACeDV3Io7S671Mt7HgtSRWpMKDcnk46y0krQOr3AgXKPK7WK0dRFbG9j-enEORx-aNraR8m4bl_3AlvGKAqaTHo4XMimArGsaxZk8HHdLMHl7xkBFDO5FbD/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <div><br></div><div><br><div> <br></div></div>Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04713370806337926891noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36190449.post-82638928278463453152016-05-30T11:11:00.001-07:002016-05-30T11:11:30.123-07:00Carson's mission call<div>Just after Christmas Carson submitted his mission papers. </div><div><br></div><div><img id="id_3fd1_bbb8_e981_e5c1" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ1fIWpdEiViJYhTfSxDtLjdtNes4dOAnlYWHpek-NyOjgsjuq4X3ppxEh2_amgmUf6V7NLOHeCOtKKSIJkQztp1Q40RX0mEwwzXq7AZDVN6sQANLjXG4r816BfgkbPuaBtT-H/" alt="" title="" tooltip="" style="width: 353px; height: auto;"> <br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>On January 21st, Callie's birthday, Carson received his mission call in the mail.

We took some family pictures a couple of weeks ago. Most of the family ones didn't turn out because we had a cranky teenage boy. I thought these were cute. I am having trouble putting to many pictures up on the blog and I don't have the time to deal with it so here are a couple.<br />

Here is an assignment she had at school near the end of the year. I like how she changed it from a boy to a girl in the picture and story.<br />

Yesterday while eating dinner Ginger spilled a little milk. She grabbed the closest thing to clean it up, a dish towel. I got after her about it and reminded her that a dish towel is only for clean dishes or clean hands. After a few seconds Liza chimed in and said "and shoulders". When Liza wants to be like mommy she throws a dish towel over her shoulder.Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04713370806337926891noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36190449.post-73866558145737051052012-04-30T23:08:00.002-07:002012-04-30T23:15:30.008-07:00Carson taking pictures of Liza<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
