Cau


Man what a week!! A lot happened!!

Tuesday we headed over to Mlada Boleslav to have district meeting with the other elders! We got to watch a devotional from the MTC by Quentin L Cook it was good! About 5 things to be a successful missionary!! It was a great reminder why I'm out here and what our goal is! Then we had to head home because we had a lesson with a dude that is interested in English then headed over to this one guy's house that we set up with last week! It was kinda awkward though he never showed up but his brother and his girlfriend were there so it was like awkward small talk for a while then we just kinda taught them because he never showed up! Way awkward! haha! They were gypsies and kinda crazy so we aren't gonna spend a whole lot of time on them; they have our number they can call if they want to meet!

Wednesday we went to a mall and had a meeting with a member from Bulgaria he needed help obtaining a debit card but turns out he is illegal so we cant help him there! Then we headed over to this lady that checks out our food at the grocery store and is from Cuba! She was an evangelist missionary and wanted to make us food.  It was a pleasant visit, her faith is amazing and we gave her a book of Mormon in Spanish but I don't think she will be changing religions anytime soon but so so so nice!
Then we taught English and had a lesson with Helena! shes good still crazy!!

Thursday I had visa work in Prague so we were there most of the morning then got home and had lunch and then we had a a lesson with Karolina she was a lil more normal so that was good and she moved out with her boyfriend so that is progress!! That was about our day!

Friday we did studies and then went and visited a member who has a  daughter who  just had a child so we brought her some fruits and flowers! It was a pleasant visit then went and visited this weird family! They were weird and the lady just cut us up a thing of salami and gave it to us! it was disgusting!! The dad comes out of the bathroom and he's this huge guy with no shirt on! so like wow! haha we just gave them a pamphlet and had to leave! yeah weird stuff I still don't know what happened there!



Saturday was the best day ever but it had a crazy start! We headed over to Pavlinas house (crazy women in the woods) and thats always an adventure but it was extra on saturday! So we get there and we go up to grab her water jugs to fill them up because she doesn't have running water but it smelled so bad and I look down and just see a jar of meat with maggots all over it! So we ask Pavlina what is that she told us the smell will keep the gypsies away! Yeah shes crazy it was disgusting!!
Pavlina grabbed this item for the picture...
Then we get back on put her jugs by her door then a squirrel falls out of a tree into this huge blue barrel of rain gross water and before we can do anything the squirrel drowns and she just leaves it so she now has a dead squirrel too! After that we decided to leave so we prayed then headed out!
The next picture we all grabbed items to hold up for the picture.
Then later we headed to Ceska Lipa to teachTturru! We had an amazing lesson about temples then related it back to the restoration it was good! Then we asked how he's feeling about baptism and he said.......I'M READY!!! SO he will be baptized the 9th of September!!!!!!!!! We are so excited and so is he!!! He had a very spiritual experience while he was giving the closing prayer too it was an amazing atmosphere!! Also they went to church in Prague and saw the baptismal font and loved it! He's Golden!

Sunday was good! Me and my comp both had talks this time! Oh and idk if I told you all this but I lead when we sing hymns every week haha I don't know what I'm doing! Then we had a lot of area book and calls to do! Then had a lesson at 5 then another at 830.

SO yeah it was a solid week for sure! Love you all!
