KOREA SEOUL WEST MISSION!

We report to the MTC October 6th for one week and then we are off. It's a proselyting mission. We need to do a few things first, like sell the house get Ben & Olivia married on August 5th, and see Katy and Ryan's new baby in June and Ann and Brendon's new daughter in September.
Korea wasn't even on our list. We are excited! Keep us in your prayers, please! I've ordered beginning Korean CDs and we will start a tutoring program via the MTC before we go. So KimChee! (that's the only Korean I know)

(this is Christina Smith, Ann's friend from college) Korea?! Hooray! My husband Nick went to the Korea Seoul mission, and he LOVED it. It's so wonderful. We have Korean books all over the house. It's a fascinating language. I'm really excited for the two of you. I've really looked up to you through the years that I've been friends with Ann. You'll do an amazing job out there! Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions (I'm sure a million people have said that to you, but there you go). Nick (my husband) worked as an MTC tutor to a mission president and his wife to Korea, so he's got some good basic Korea teaching skills. Just in case you want a head start!

Elder and Sister Knudsen!!! It was so fun to be on the phone and hear Mom's shocked "Gasp!!" as you read KOREA in your call. I'm so happy and excited for you two to do this. Finally, a mission...we are already making plans to come visit!

I'm sitting here listening to conference and got thinking about my mission to the Korea Seoul West Mission. Your blog came up on a Google search for my mission homepage.

You guys will love it! I'm looking forward to going on a mission or two with my wife when the time comes. Hopefully you guys can blog about your experiences. It's been long enough that a lot has changed and would be fun to see. Korea is a beautiful place with wonderful people that truly NEED the gospel. Best wishes!

Oh my favorite Elder and Sister Knudsen! Hello from the bright and sunny St. George, Utah! I miss you both already and have a big hole in my heart where those wonderful Korean people once were. I look forward to staying updated on what's happening through your blog! Keep up the great work and remember I love you!!!

Amazing!!!! I hope you have so much fun serving. The Lord will surely bless you and your family as you serve your mission with Faith. What will happen to the KurtKnudsen store while you are gone? I better order a bunch of stars before you go. Have fun with all your family before you go.
Blessings
Dani
