HELLO Whats up everyone??? Hope you all had a fantastic week and are enjoying July!
Well its kinda sad we are going in to the last week of the
transfer so it will be interesting what happens next transfer we had gotten
word from prez that they are closings the sisters area in Liberec due to lack
of new missionaries coming in so we are all kinda stressed whats going to
happen! But all in all we had a good week here!
Tuesday oh man what a day!! We went and did service for Jindra and he had just bought a garden and Czechs are way serious about their
gardens and I've always wanted to work in one so my dream came true and we
helped him with his garden! It is going to be quite a project! Then we got home
showered and then we were about to study but sister Horakova a less active lady from church who we had an apt with that night called and asked if we could come earlier so we headed over
there with the sisters! So her situation is a lil different so she is a single
mom and lives with 3 other single moms in this house and they just kinda help
each other out which is way cool! But a lot of little kids! So me and my comp
took all the kids to go play futbol! It fun but one of the moms was
watching and she was probably like 3 or 4 beers deep or something so she was a
lil typsy and her radio was going with music and she kept turning it up and up
which was funny! But then she started playing with us and she was intense!! She
was going like way hard!! So this mexican song comes on and you all know me I couldn't help but shake my hips just a lil but then all the sudden the drunk
woman comes out of no where and grabs my hands and starts like dancing and
twirling haha it was so unexpected! And there I am a sweaty gross missionary in
a shirt and tie holding hands with this drunk woman while she was dancing! It
was all the awkwardness you could think of!! Yeah after that we decided to go
back in and do our spiritual thought!! What a day that was!!!
Wednesday pretty normal just regular stuff then had Helana
English and Radovan! Pretty cool experience with Radovan we talked about the
book of Mormon and that he could find help on any page! and we were like open
up to any page and we will read that chapter! So he opened up to Helaman 12 and
we read that and it was all about good and evil which was perfect for and and
repenting!! Way powerful moment for us and him!! The Book is true and can help
us in daily life!! That is a promise from almost every prophet that there ever
was and ever will be!!!
Thursday! Well I hit my year mark! It wasn't as special as I thought it was going to be haha but it was still fun!! We had Jiri in the
morning and he read again!!!!!! Wooohooo then we talked about the Atonement with
him! He is progressing slowly but surely haha!! Then went out to lunch to
celebrate then got on with the rest of our day and then I got a mcflurry on the
way home to end the day! I gotta a lil homessick at the end of the day which
was a little weird because I haven't really got homesick at all while being out
here! I woke up the next morning fine!!
Friday we finally had time and planned to go contacting
after lunch but nope haha our Mongolian friends called and asked if we could
come today and not Saturday and because we no longer have a car we had to find
a train then we found out it left in 20 mins so we had to sprint to the train
station and buy everything then race to the the platform! We made our train by
a minute and then went on the hour and 15 voyage to ceska lipa!! Then we had to
find there house because we didn't have a gps or anything anymore so that was
way fun!!! But we found it after walking a freeway and climbing in and out of
a ditch but we found it! And turned out to be an amazing lesson and we had
everyone share there testimonies which was awesome because Turru likes
everything but just doesn't have a testimony but wants it to be true!! He just
needs a lil more time!!! Then we headed back home and that was our day!
Saturday was normal day not much happened we weekly planned!
Sunday was great!! We had Sunday and it was good Karolina
came again which was good!!! Then we had branch council which was actually
really awesome the members gave us a lil praise just cause we do everything so
that was nice to get a lil recognition! Then we went over to our grannys
house and they fed us so much svickova it was insane me and my comp were
struggling to not throw up thank goodness there wasn't any dessert!!! They are
so sweet and they love us! And we asked if we could pray at the end and taught
a lil about prayer then Elder Wutzke gave an amazing prayer and after they were
crying and stuff! The spirit hit them hard! They told us they have never heard
a prayer like that before and only knew the Lords prayer! So they are awesome!
Then the the sisters called and where like hey we need you to come to our
investigators house with us and so we can go in his car we were like what??? SO
turns out that this guy that they met tracting the other week collects old
world war II jeeps and cars!!! HIs garage was insane!!!! He has 12!!! Dad would
be in Heaven I was in Heaven it was way cool!! Then we went on a ride with him
through the countryside with him in this old jeep!! it was so much fun!! Ill
send some pics!! YEah my week was awesome!!
Then today we went to another way pretty church!! We
have a big zone conference tomorrow and are going to the Castle where our mission was dedicated and every missionary from the Czech will be there so I am
way pumped!!!
Love you all!!
