Hey everybody this week was pretty crazy but a good one! So yeah crazy week here in the Czech! A good one though. Our lessons last Tuesday went good! For Daria we taught the rest of the Restoration and emphasized on the Book of Mormon and committed her read it. She said that she would love too and we gave her a specific chapter to read. Krystoff we kinda had a mutual drop because he just wanted us to come to his business seminar thing so that happened then our lesson with Josef went well and he told us that he would come to church but not till next month which was kind of odd but whatever he is a nice man and is really interested!

Wed. the lecture at the college went well no new investigators but a couple potentials! They had a lot of good questions about the plan of salvation about the kingdoms and our type of hell which we tried to answer as best as we could! It was nice we had the Frydek Elders with us so that helped to have them there. WE also had interviews with president Wednesday and it was awesome I tried to speak as much Czech as possible but when i got stuck it was alright because president speaks really good english! I learned a lot and he gave me ideas on learning the language that i will be trying out.

Thursday was definitely the highlight of my week during group finding after district meeting we went out to the park and.... I set up my first lesson with this guy all in Czech! We talked about families and about how god has a plan for you and how family can be together forever i could really feel the spirit helping me because I don't know how to explain it. It was amazing!! I got his number and set up a time and everything. but the bad news he didn't show up Saturday for the lesson so that sucked i was really excited to meet with him he was super nice! He hasn't replied to any text or calls so we will see what happens! All good you gotta have a good attitude here or else you will die! I love it here even though its starting to get super cold!! It snowed a little bit today but not enough to get on the ground but still it snowed!!

Saturday was good we had our ward Halloween party and about 20 people showed up so you could say it was a success it was actually pretty fun!! We just played ping pong and cards and just talked with the members!

Sunday was good we went Tracting and set up with this lady for Thursday so that was sick! And we taught this nice old lady on her porch the book of Mormon and i gave away my first Book of Mormon so I was happy!
SO my favorite person in the ward is this 17 year old named Filip that was baptized in January! I love him he acts like he is 12 and is crazy hahaha he always comes tracting with us and makes it bearable!!! haha He caught this cat last night it was hilarious, I have pics!

So yeah pretty good week here in Ostrava looking forward to this week! Oh and also out transfers are 9 weeks so i have 3 more weeks in my first transfer!!! I'll send pics!

I love you all!!
