Wow it was a good week! Hard to believe that today is the
start of the last week of this transfer this one really flew by! It will be
interesting to what will happen with transfer calls on Saturday!
Anyway! Tuesday was great we did service for Otakar, the old
dude that we met the other week! He's way nice and the service wasn't too hard
just moving stuff around his big yard and making sure that his chickens get
fed! He made it very clear to us that he has 15 chickens! I think he told us
that about 15 times it was way funny! We finished with him and he asked us to
come back this week so we will try to fit him in there somewhere we have a lot
to do this week! After that we got changed had personal study then we met with
Lukas the very atheist person! He will get there sometime he just doesn't want to
try! Oh also right before lunch we ran into this woman from Australia she was
super nice a part of some weird religion but she actually talked with us so
that was nice and it was English!
Wednesday we had Zone Conference in Prague it was good to
see all my buds and catch up! Also the Senior Missionaries that are in Liberec
finally came so we got to meet them! And you'll never guess where they are
from...... GILBERT ARIZONA!!!!!!! Not too far from us either!! They lived on
Cooper and Elliot! So that was cool to talk with them! They are the sister and
elder Jones! ZC was one of the most spiritual ones ever! we talked a lot about
our mission culture and what we need to change! Then President gave an amazing
Training on Being truly converted! And making sure our investigators will
be truly converted! We talked about the last days and how even the elect will
be deceived! And gave examples of some of hi closest friends in the gospel as
they fell away from the Church! It was way powerful and counseled us that we
must continue to the small and simple thing so that we will never be deceived
by false Christs and so forth! Amazing training! When training ended we had to
run for our bus so we could get back for English! You always just feel so
missionary running through a train and bus station wearing a full suit with
your arms packed with things haha!!
We made it to English though I taught beginners it was fun! They hate our tenses haha and its hard to teach especially in Czech but it was
fun we have some characters! The lady that we found on the street came again so
that was cool! Also they started filming spider man so we watched that for a bit
with a member!! Then ran into a potential that set up with us for the next day!
Thursday, the senior couple came up to Liberec and we
showed them around! their apartment isnt ready yet so they are staying in a lil
town about 30 mins away! They are awesome and really excited to get to work! We
took them to our favorite restaurant they really liked it! They already love
Czech food!! After that we did some studies contacted a bit then had dinner
then had our lesson with a new lukas! Hes a believer has a lot of questions we
taught full restoration he definitely felt the Holy Ghost so we will see what happens
with him this week! That was about our day!
Friday we went over to Mlada Boleslav and went on splits
with the other elders! I was with Elder Lund and we went to go visit this
referral that they got! So we finally found his house in this tiny little town
and his friends answered and told us to hang on a sec! So we waited and we heard
this guy in the background say I don't want to talk with them! Then his
girlfriend came to the door and told us he wasn't home! So we were about
confused why we he ordered a book of mormon haha! So we just contacted around a
bit and got our bus back then met back up and headed back up to Liberec! And
right when we got there it started to pour raining like pour pour!!! It
was a good 10 min jog from the bust station to the apartment! We literals took a
shower it was fun though!
Saturday, we headed over too Dana's house for her to teach us
how to make more Czech food! we made this thing were you stuff meat into a
pepper and then boil it in this sauce!! It was so good! Then we made knedliky
to go with it and then made some kolac after it was a great morning! Then we
taught about Jesus and ready 3 Nephi 11 with her! Shes awesome and will be
baptized but the Branch just insnt ready for some of these elect people we are
teaching! Then as we were walking to the Tram we passed this fall festival on
the namesti in jablonec it was way weird haha there were like naked men
it was way weird we didn't stay to long! Then we did studies and weekly planned
that was about it!
Sunday we were small in numbers we had the Mongolian members
then 2 czechs and the Jones so elder wutzke lead and gave a talk and i blessed
and translated! It was just a grand time but we are pretty use to doing
everything! Then we had a meeting with the Jones after church and we already
knew but he had been called to be the next Branch Counselor! (Thank the Heavens)
so we went through every member with them and all that then they came to a
lesson with us! It was about a hour drive to this guys house! It was a way
pleasant visit! he also invited a friend to meet us so we sang a couple song
and then taught the restoration it was way cool! this was that Milan guy that
we have met with in the passes he just lives very far so we dont get to see him
a lot but hes an amazing man!! We invited him and his family to Branch
Conference next week so hopefully they will come!
It was a good week!!
LOve you all
