Hallo zusammen!
So, another week down. I think this was week 75 or something
like that, according
to someone from my MTC group. It's even weirder because the
sisters of our group go home next week. What?! I can hardly believe
it.
So I have a pretty good idea of what's going to happen to me
next transfer. I've heard thins... So I'll tell you next
week when it's official. (:
Cool story from this week. I was on Austausch in Augsburg with
Elder Maw which was
really cool. We had a really good time. But we were on the way back,
and we split up on the train, and Elder Maw started talking to an
old guy, and I sat next to
this older lady, who laughed, got up, and
left. So I was sitting there throughout the train ride, and the ticket
checker came around. He checked Elder Maw, who had a 2 person ticket,
and I had a 2 person ticket as well. So we just used his ticket, and
I saved mine so that Elder Carr and I could get somewhere later
in the day. Then, the ticket checker moved onto the next girl, who
had run to catch the train to visit her sick Grandma in Munich, and had
not bought her ticket. So she was begging the controller to
let her buy a ticket from him, which would cost about 13 euro, and he
wasn't having it. So that meant a 60 euro fine for her. So I saw this
going down, and realized I had the extra ticket. So I got up and asked
him if I could just put her on my extra ticket. He didn't seem
rather happy about it, but what was he going to say at that point? He
said, Ausnahmsweise, then swiped my ticket. She was obviously
breathing sighs of relief and was really thankful. So she came and sat with me
and we had a really good talk.
She was a really cute 18 year old
girl from Poland. She's been here for 5 years and has learned perfect
German. She and I just had a really great conversation on the train and
she gave me her number. Then offered to come home with me hahaha.
But now she's being taught by the Elders in Augsburg and who knows
what will come from it. Cool deal right?
So yeah, it's been around 70 degrees today. Holy cow it's
been great. We went out Mountain Biking today with a
member and it was tons of fun just to be out.
Investigators are doing good. D is a little less ready than we thought he was,
but is coming pretty well. I think he'll be definitely baptized, it's
just a matter of when.
M is doing alright, just hard to get in
contact with and lost his job as well.
S is nix. Unbelievable.
Frustrating too.
S is progressing, has been to church a few
times now.
A is coming along. We are trying to teach all the lessons
to him slowly through scripture stories this time around. It's
working pretty well. That man loves to read...
