Week 38: Hallo! :)

Hallo! :)

Well, I hope you all had an awesome week!  We had a busy week here ... We had a lot of appointments and "go bys" that kept us super busy through the week, so that was fun.

 

It is exciting times for the mission here in Frankfurt because on Friday, we will be blessed to have the opportunity to have a Mission Conference with Elder Bednar.  We will be receiving iPads to help with our mission work here.  So, this week should be wonderful. 

 

The ward here is so awesome and basically every appointment we have, the members are talking about families they could invite to church activities and how they can be missionaries.  It is so great to see how hard they are working to help, because without them, we missionaries wouldn't have really any work to do in the Military Ward.  We can't exactly go door to door here with the Military ward. 

 

We had a neat experience with a member ...  She invited her friend over because she heard she was looking for a new religion.  So, she came late and just for a second, but we told her a little about what we do and what we believe, and we gave her a Book of Mormon.  The next day she text the member and said how grateful she was for everything she was doing for her ... How it may just seem like talking and handing her books, but how much it meant to her.  It was really neat and I hope that we can continue to talk to her, and hopefully teach her the lessons :)

 

I am excited that it is warming up here.  Maybe I can get a little tan and not look as white as the walls (haha).  Sister Peterson and I also had a challenge to memorize (for a box of Chips Ahoy cookies) the order of how long each apostle has been in the presidency!  That was fun!

Woo hoo :)  Sorry if I spelled them wrong, but for those who are seeking a challenge ... there you go.  Have fun! (haha)  Well I hope all of you have a great week.  I hear it keeps snowing, so that's good that you wont be in a total drought (haha).

 

Take care!
