새해 복 많이 받으세요!

Happy New Year! What it says at the top is "please receive New Years blessings!" and you say it seh he bok mani pad uh sey yo!

Here's a holiday card* I got from one of our investigators!



New Year in Korea is INCREDIBLE! They get to celebrate it TWICE!!! First they have the regular New Year on January 1 like everyone else, but later they also have the Korean New Year, and it's a three-day celebration. Sis. Clabby says that it's like everything closes down and everyone goes to their ancestral home and all the girls wear their hanboks and it's a big celebration!

Our night was pretty quiet last night, but we could hear people in the neighborhood celebrating and making noise, almost like home. I can't wait for the BIG celebration!

I may see if we can go shopping and get a hanbok for me. I think that would be soooo AMAZING!

Anyway, New Year's blessings to you!

*It's a Christmas, New Year and Korean New Year card all in one. The picture is some of the things they do at New Years (except for the picture on the bottom left...hey do that all the time).

Love and testimony to all!
