Hallo Familie!!!
This week has been really busy. We have been
getting to know the ward and visiting people so that I can know them.
And also so that we can practice lessons with the members cuz our German
is not the greatest. We both are trying to get better, but we need
help. Lucky for us the ward is awesome about it. They correct us and
some of the members want us to correct them on their English, so we help
one another. We also had a really cool day this week that we both told
you about on the voice recording. So be sure to listen to those. .
We
had a great lesson with one of our investigators this week and she is
awesome. She is so ready for baptism and sees the church making a
difference in her life, but she feels that she hasn't gotten an answer
about baptism yet. So we are just working on that. She is super cool.
We love having her and we hope that she will be baptized by the end of
the transfer.
Then we had our miracle day, then we had
church. I am so glad that we have 3 hours of church again. It is so
great. And actually it flies by now. I never would have thought that I
would say that. But I love having 3 hours of church. I am so grateful. Then we went and had dinner with a member family. It was so
great. They have 3 little kids and I have missed that. And also the
food was amazing. I got to hear Italian as well cuz the dad served in
Italy and so he speaks Italian to the kids sometimes. They can all
understand Italian, but they don't speak it. They can also understand
English a little bit. It is crazy how many bilingual and multilingual
kids there are here. It amazes me.
Then I am having a little
bit of a rough day today. We were at the library for emails, where we
only did half so that we could come to the church to send pictures. The
computers at the library don't work with cameras. And I put on someone else s coat and was totally freaked out cuz it looked just like mine and
I wondered why I had these things in my pockets. So that was funny.
Then I couldn't find the letter from Brother P that he sent me to
send a return one. He sent me a huge package and I was so nice of him.
Tons of chocolate inside. So I need to send something back. Then I
also scuffed up my boot really bad, I am hoping that I can get it fixed,
cuz it looks really bad and It may cause an issue if it rains. And
then now my pictures don't work today. So that sums up the little bad
things that are happening already today and it is only 1:00.
But it is OK. Because that just means that something great is going to
happen and Satan is trying to get me down. But it doesn't work like
that. :) Actually it hasn't been that bad. I actually laughed really
hard when I put on that other persons jacket, and luckily no one saw
me. And the other stuff really isn't bad, just frustrating.
But
all is well here. I love being in Graz. I really hope that I get to
stay for awhile. I am loving my companion and all that is happening
here. We have a great ward. I am so glad that you all sound safe and
sound.
Love you all and think and pray for you always.
