Thankful interludes -- Chuseok 2014

From the editor: Sam has written quite a bit in recent weeks about Chuseok, the Korean national holiday of thanksgiving. The PR people in his mission have posted some photos of their mission-wide conference, where 212 missionaries met to sing, pray, eat and hear some instruction from their mission president about prayer. Here are some photos.

Sam is serving as a Zone Leader--meaning he's caring for around 30 other missionaries or so--in the northeast of Seoul just under the mountains. He hasn't put that in his letters, but we got a note from the mission office informing us it was so.

The Seoul Mission, all together. Sam is on the left side--about 8 missionaries in from the left, and about 5 rows from the top.

Sacred singing, with President and Sister Christensen.
Looks to me like the Koreans are singing and the Americans
are squinting intently at their hymnbooks.
