Answers: no new area, Keine Angst, Conference is via broadcast for sat am session, that it at 6 tonight and tape delay for the rest. we watch it online at the church tomorrow.Bach is explained more in the letter.favorite part of the last 18 weeks has been the people. nothing what i expected, nothing like i want to be, but somehow i love them. their awesome and crazy
It has been a short week. but its been a crazy one. the last week of the transfer usually is. plus this week we had a holiday on Friday and another on Monday so that's why I'm writing right now. Transfer information... Elder Gallachers stay in Magdeburg was a short one. he will be going zone leader in Hanover and i will be another 6 weeks here. i haven't got my call yet so that's all the info i have. we got that from president last night because he calls all ZL's personally.
Monday was an interesting P day. after we finished E mails we went on a tour of Magdeburg with Kasimir one of the other twos investigators. it was his birthday and he was lonely. but we had a lot if fun.
Tuesday was a crazy day there's not much to say about it because it was nothing exciting. but before we knew it it was time for English and German class and the whole day was gone.
Wednesday was a lot of fun. Dad would be so Jealous. We had ZTM in Leipzig so we went to that. Elder Gallacher and i had to give a lesson there about Repentance and the because of him film the church made last year. that wasn't that bad we just had them do a lot of role plays and before we knew it our 40 min were gone. then we had DL school and before we could get to bahnhof our train left so we had a couple hours before we could go home. Marc from Leipzig (i think his last name is ''From Leipzig'' because that's how he introduces himself. Hello I'm Marc From Leipzig) Took us on a tour of the coolest places in the city. we went to one church(I cant remember the name) but it was a significant church in the re unification of Germany. then we saw the Oprah house and a couple other things, then comes what will make Dad jealous. we went to the St Thomas church. (the one with the picture of Bach) this church is special because Johann Sebastian Bach was the Organist here. and it is now where his grave is. Mozart also played here in Bach's memory. so dad can be jealous. then we rode the subway back to bahnhof and returned to Magdeburg. then we went on tausch for the night I was with elder Gibbs. in Magdeburg we had a lot of fun. we have become really good friends since we got to Germany.
Thursday i was with Elder Gibbs all day and since we thought it would be one of our last times together we had a lot of fun and did a lot of work. we had one lesson fall out Which made me really sad because i was sure id never see Georgia again. then we had a lesson with Dennis. we were gonna commit him to baptism but he started drinking again and wouldn't have remembered the date anyways. then we got Tschues Döners and Tausched back to our normal companions.
Friday we had weekly planning and it was a holiday so we tried some contacting but it was useless. no one on the street, and really angry people inside doors. We had a really cool Lesson with a Romanian family we found. there's a language barrier but the son speaks good enough German to translate. the problem this time is the son was gone. so we had a broken German/English/Romanian lesson. Luckily the spirit was there so it somewhat made sense. Then we went to the Wloka's for a visit. we had dinner and played some games. (i won because the game we played had teams and i had their daughter on my team, and she is evil and heartless at the game we played so we won.) then as we left Elder Bodtcher got a phone call from president. That is always nerve wracking. But it was only wishing him happy birthday so when he was done we all joked about how scary it is when president calls, and then our phone rang...
president called us and said that Elder Gallacher will be serving as a zone leader in the Hanover zone. and i still haven't got my call so i don't know who my new comp will be. anyways that was a shock to all four of us because with him only being here one transfer and me here 3 we were all sure that i was gone. president doesn't usually keep you in your first area that long.
Saturday we got up did studies and came to an internet laden. so now were just chilling here writing e mails. the AP's should call any minute now and tell us about transfers. that's pretty exciting anyways that was my week. the weather makes me feel at home. this week was really crazy that way. if you don't like the weather wait 10 minutes it will get worse. one day we woke up to go run and it was snowing. then everyday it would rain then shine then hail then shine then snow then hail then rain again. it was crazy. This week was a really good week I'm so glad to be on a mission I'm so glad for the stuff i learn the friends i make. i love this church. i wish people would just give it a chance. but i guess that's the hard part about the east. it doesn't change that i know it is true and i know how it blesses lives. I've seen it bless mine and see how it will bless the rest of my life. i guess next weeks e mail will be a little longer hopefully more cool stuff. i love you guys
My new comps name is elder Valinga he will be district leader here. just thought id let you know.
