Week Sixty-eight

OH MY GOODNESS! Skyping was just a dream haha.

I told you like everything on Sunday, so I'll just let you know how the last week went.

Montag: Last Monday was way cool. Writing emails was weird, but everything was so distracting and it was just hard for me to sit down for two hours and concentrate. Hamburg is a cool city. I had NO money though haha all my money was in the office waiting to be refunded. That was rough. But we got to see some cool stores and eat KFC......Yea I ate KFC last week. No big deal. It was way too much food and I just felt gross after. But it was OK. We cut P-Day short to visit Sister S and help her with her apartment. We have this on-going service project to help her chisel the stucco off of her ceiling so she can re-do it all. It's actually kind of fun. It's hard work and really tiring, but  it's always good to serve. After that, we had to walk to the church and pick up our bikes haha. It took like 40 minutes to walk to the church. Kind of annoying. But it was a good day.

Diesntag: Tuesday was good as well. We went by on a referral in the morning and contacted him. He had no interest, but it was good to meet him. Planting seeds of faith over here. We had some good lunch, and then had an appointment with Herr S, who we found on the street last week. It was an OK appointment haha. He talked a lot. We didn't get much teaching in, but we have an appointment today, so hopefully it will be better. We got to take some P-Day time from Monday that we had left over and kind of relax. We went home and did some area book work, calling and organizing and such. That night, we had an appointment with a less active member, who just has a lot of problems in his life. It was great though. We told him that we want to be his friends and help him. All in all, great day.

Mittwoch: We had a way cool miracle on Wednesday. We were eating with the K family (which was way good) and their friend came and started talking with us. He told us about how he visited Salt Lake and enjoyed it a lot and stuff. We told him that we would want to sit down and talk, and he agreed. We need to make out another appointment with him. The rest of that day, we cleaned. The office called and wanted us to move out because of mold. We had to clean up a lot of stuff so our GML could come and inspect it all. We also made a lot of calls.

Donnerstag: The only interesting thing that happened on Thursday was that a Russian lady talked to us for like 30 minutes about how her child's Bible with pretty pictures in it was more spiritual than the real Bible.

Freitag: I was in Lübeck on Friday. I led exchanges with the elders there. It was a really good exchange. I got to see how they work and everything. We had a cool eating appointment with members there and the sisters were also there. It was some good contact to the district. That night, we met with Dr. M. It was interesting haha. He also talks a lot. But we're going to help that guy.

Samstag: Saturday mornings are SOCCER! I love it. I get tan. And exercise. We also planned for the week, and did more service for Sister S.

Sonntag: Sunday was Stake Conference in Neumünster. 

 

Neumünster Zone Missionaries

We had to ride the train there. We also ate with the L family. They made us enchiladas. It was delicious. We also got to skype that night!

Montag: And yesterday was interviews in Kiel. I got to sit down with President and talk about the district and everything. We came home and ate with the M's. Also a very good eating appointment.

Other news: President Kosak is going to look into the ecclesiastical endorsement and the scholarship.

Sorry for the short email! We just talked though haha. I love you all!
