Howdy, today is my pday this week because we have to travel a lot tomorrow because WE'RE GETTING SISTER CANNON AS OUR NEW COMP!! y'all remember Sister Cannon?? She was one of my comps in England, so that's cool! There's so few of us here they're just recycling companions (; jk but we are SO excited for her to join us in good ol Würzburg.
Teaching
Alrighty so because of the weird laws and my genius mom, I've decided to use their initials! Just don't go being creepy and stalk anyone please & thanks (;
S. He's so busy!! But he's been reading the Book of Mormon a little bit which is good! We have a member who's going to help fellowship him and he's really excited for it!
R. He's amazing! This dude keeps on surprising us, apparently he like...won in a tennis tournament this weekend?? I don't really know. BUT he's really progressing with the gospel as well. He really wants to learn more and we're so excited about that.
A. This guy is a lil crazy but he wants to be baptized so whateva. He's actually got a really crazy story with the church! So he was baptized like 20 years ago or something but he really needed a job pretty soon after that and apparently the ONLY job available was a bus driver for the catholic church. In order to work for them he had to be baptized into that church which meant he had to take his records out of our church. BUT he really wants to be baptized back into this church and he has a great testimony of the Holy Ghost.
An. She's so cute!! She's a volunteer for work so her schedule is kinda all over the place but we're meeting with her this week!
L. She's literally adorable!! We can't quite figure out how to grasp her attention with the gospel...she has a daughter so we figured eternal families would be something that could benefit her if she'd like it. buuuuut apparently she doesn't like her parents so she didn't really like that. It was a little awkward but we recovered and we're meeting with her again tonight!
Y. This guy is literally hilarious and I love love love teaching him. He's so funny, and he's super nice about German! I love love love that cause I don't really understand German haha.
E. oh my goodness he's my favoritest. He's so adorable!! Last week we had talked about prayer and prophets and we sent him the link to President Nelsons video about gratitude so he could see who our prophet is and how we pray. HE WATCHED IT FOUR TIMES!! He gave us a literal play by play and told us how much he liked it. And then he asked us what we had planned the rest of the night and we told him about our family home evening/familie heimabend (FHA) where we play some games with our friends in the ward. We asked if he'd like to join and he was like "Yes!" So, he joined our family home evening thing and it was a little awkward cause only one member showed up lol but he had so much fun and even joined us for the prayer!!
Chocolate...oops
So Sister Smith's mom sent us a little box of chocolates and after we had both eaten a few we were thinking they tasted a little weird...so we're looking at the menu (because it was boujee chocolate so it came with its own little menu) and it turns out some of them have a lot of alcohol in them! Anyways that was pretty exciting haha.
Weekly Spiritual Dose
Gratitude!! It's amazing. It literally holds the power to change an entire situation! So I challenge y'all to watch President Nelson's video and then write down everything you're grateful for every day before you go to bed. It will be great, I promise!!
Love you all so much! Somebody watch Friends for me, thanks.
