Short week this week seems like I was just sending one of these a few days ago. This was an awesome week Monday we did a district p day, Bernburg brought John the guy that was baptized the night before. We played soccer and had a ton of fun.
Tuesday was a holiday and i was with another elder because we were on exchanges. We tried to do some finding but the Germans take their holidays seriously so nothing is open and no one is out doing anything. Then Tuesday night we had English class. (I like this part because I understand it all) we had quite a few people show up and we played charades with them. We all had a really good time.
Wednesday and Thursday were normal days not much happened but people would at least talk to us so that was nice. Thursday night the Romney s took us out to eat and we had a lot of fun with them. Its been raining a ton the last few days.
Friday we had to get up early to be on our train at 5:00 so we could go to Dresden for mission tour. Elder Kopischke of the seventy came and talked to us. He ran a fantastic discussion with us and I got a ton of revelation for myself. After mission tour we got back on the train and went home.
Saturday transfer calls came. Its crazy to think that I've been in Germany as long as I was in the MTC now. That 6 weeks went by so fast. Well anyways about the transfer calls. The only one in our district to be transferred is Elder Pilling from Bernburg. The rest of us are staying. Its sad to see him go, he was a fun elder to have.
After transfer calls we went to Köthen for Johanna's baptism. That was a really cool experience. It was a nice service and it was cool to see how happy it made her father to have one of his children find the truth. I can only imagine how much happier our heavenly father was to see it.
Then we had another lesson to go to after the baptism. It was a nice adventure finding it. We went with president and sister Romney. He didn't want to listen to his GPS because it doesn't like to use the Autobahn. But he still likes to have it on so we listened to it talk but didn't do what it said. We finally got to our appointment and we were only one hour late but Daniel, the kid we went to teach was gone. So we sat down with his parents and gave a little spiritual thought. We were glad to have his dad sit in on the whole discussion with us. (his dad is atheist his mom is a member) hopefully the spirit will touch his heart and he will take the lessons himself.
Sunday we had church and Johanna was confirmed. Its so cool to have been able to see an investigator through from beginning to end. Then after church we went to an eating appointment with Familie Staiger in Wulfen. They made these sausages wrapped in cabbage and they were really good. This week has been an awesome week.
The picture of the cathedral I sent is the Dom it is over a thousand years old and took a hundred years to build. it is probably the biggest landmark in the city. the train station is the one in Dresden it is really big but the one in Leipzig is bigger. I would like to send a lot of pictures of the landscape but I don't get to see a lot. (daylight is only from 8:30 until about 4:30)
I'm praying for all of you guys
