Ahoj Rodino!

Had a very solid week here in Prague! I think I'm finally used to Prague haha It took me long enough! I don't know why it took me so long to adjust? Anyways...

Sunday was a solid day! 1st Sunday of the year and two hour church! It was good! I cant wait to study with you all with our extra hour of church! Also the Aps came in clutch and put these people on date so we hit standard so that was awesome! Then we had lunch at a senior couples and she made Costa Vidas' burritos with the ranch dressing, I was literally in heaven! I ate 3 of them! Then we met up with our group of investigators and members and headed to inspiration night it was good! 

Monday we started an exchange with the aps because I'm their DL so I get to go on exchanges with them! I was with Elder McQuivey he's a way cool guy and we get along great! We taught that woman Stepanka at a cafe and it went very very well. Shes very interested and said that we could meet again this upcoming week! She wants to come to church but is out of town today and tomorrow so next week she will come to church! She was so nice! Not really a believer in God but a believer in a higher power (classic czech) but it went well we really focused on the Kniha Mormonova with her! She had already read a lil before our meeting! It was so cool the spirit was super strong! Then we contacted the rest of the day and got a couple numbers but no one wanted to set up right then and there! Then we had FHE with some people at the church and then went home! It was a good day!

Tuesday we met with a LA guy that we have been working with and he really wants to get to the temple so we made some goals with him! It was an awesome lesson! After that we had district meeting. Then we did studies and so pretty crazy story so Sestra Desantiago contacted this woman from Brazil and told her that we teach English. SO this woman put it on facebook so we walk down stairs and there were 18 Brazilians wanting to learn English, it was insane!! SO it was pretty hard teaching in Czech to the Czech people and in really slow English to the Brazilians!! It was a bit hectic but so much fun!! Then turns out the girl that invited everyone was a member haha! But we gave a fire spiritual thought about the Book of Mormon. Byla skoda that we didn't have more Books of Mormon in Portegues. But we gave away 2 and told them we would have more next week! Then after English we had a lesson with Ilona! She is great and so nice she really loves the church. She read some Anti stuff on the internet but she didn't believe it because we are too nice of people for that stuff to be true! We taught her the Plan of Salvation and we tried to get her to commit to church but her work is crazy so she can't come but shes coming to inspiration night tomorrow! it was a fun day!

Wednesday I woke up with my Stomach killing and a lil bit of a fever so I slept most of the day which sucked!

Thursday I woke and felt pretty good so we got to work! It snowed all day so we spent time in the metro! Also we had a lesson with Denis. It was good he just progresses very slow which is frustrating but he's at church every week so he will get there. That night we had our interviews with Prez. They are always the best. We talked about a lot of things but mainly on how we know if someone is elect or not and how we should measure success. Two things that have been hard for  me out here! It was a great chat! I love Prezident so much! He is the man! 

In the Metro!

Friday we had studies and contacting we found this way cool guy in the metro that set up for next week! Hes from Liberec but studies in Prague so of course I got way hyped haha! Hes cool so I'm excited to meet with him next week! Then we had our Culture night we went to this like String concert/opera/ballet, it

was cool but one hour was enough for me haha! Then we headed back home! It also snowed all day that day too!

Today was good we went on a lil nature walk/ hike with the other elders to get out of the city for a bit then did our 3 hours of pross and cleaned our apartment nothing to special! 

Overall a way solid week here in Prague! I love you all! The Gospel is true!

Ahoj Vsem a Strasny Novy rok

Finally got his package!

Hey everyone! Happy 2019!! Crazy that a new year has already come!!

Church was good it was last week of 3 hour block thats about all I remember of Sunday.

We had a good week here in Prague! Monday we had some time to do some contacting! So we went around with a picture of all the apostles and prophets asking people if they knew these men? It lead perfectly into teaching the restoration so we did a lot of teaching just no one wanted to set up with us which was a bummer but it was good we got to testify a lot and I felt the spirit so I can't complain on what I can't control! Then Jindra my old buddy from Liberec called Elder Wutzke and wanted to see us because he was in Prague. So about 4:30 me and elder Witzke went on a lil split and went and saw him! I love Jindra he's such a good guy it was fun to see him! Then Prezident had us all over to celebrate new years we played some games and ate food he made some traditional dishes like some sausage thing then he made tatrak for us all! (the raw meat) it was good! He told me i could make it at home but we just have to find really really ground beef! so ill make you some when I'm home! Then it was about 9:30 when we left so we got permission to stay the night at the Aps because they live super close to the building rather than a 30 min metro ride to our flat. Czechs know how to do fireworks thats for sure! Its a war zone out there haha!

Tuesday we went on a trip with some investigators to Karlstejn castle! One of the best castles in the Czech its so pretty! The we had district meeting after that we contacted around and that was our day!

Wednesday we had a lesson with a new guy, Vojtech. He was taught the resto on the street and had questions about plan of salvation. So that's what we taught it was a very good lesson the spirit was definitely there! Then we had some time to contact and found a super awesome lady named Stepanka we have a meeting with her on Monday I'm excited for that! Also my companion had visa work so we also did that! Also prez told me I'm getting me license so I might be driving here pretty soon! He found out that I can drive stick haha it was pretty funny! Thanks mom and dad for teaching me!

Thursday we had contacting time and a lesson with Denis! It was a good lesson we went over the great apostasy again and why we need authority! It was good hes progressing slowly but surely. Then we went and got some dinner with him. Then went home! Good day!

Friday was good we did weekly planning and had a lesson with a woman from Jamaica that was found before I got here she was interesting but she coming to church tomorrow so that's cool! then we had correlation later that night

Representing Gilbert Football on the St. Charles Bridge

Today was fun we went and played squash with the district this morning! I have never played squash but once I got the hang of it it was so much fun! It was nice to get a nice sweat on! Then we went and walked around Prague and got some brunch! Then we went home showered and did our 3 hours of pros and have been just hanging around ever since its been a fun day!

I'm so grateful for this gospel! I love it so much! I have been studying all the talks from last general conference! I'm so thankful for a prophets and apostles! I highly recommend elder Christoffersons talk from General Conference for you all to study this week!

Love you all
