This week was weird but awesome at the same time, Tuesday Sister Tuschling had to go to the doctors for a blood test and it took like 3 hours including travel time to do that. It was so lame we got to the doctor`s office and waited for like20 mins then she went back and they asked her some questions and then we waited like20 more minutes then she went back again and they asked her some more questions then she came and waited for like 15 mins then she went back and actually go her blood drawn and it took like 2 mins! We could have been done after 2 mins but no haha... Germans. After that we had to ameblen me which is this thing you have to do whenever you move it was pretty easy. On the way there we got on the bus and I forgot to zip up my backpack and this girl said hey your backpack is unzipped and I was just in shock because it was English. We found out that she is a member of the church her name is Diana and she is really nice. So that was cool to meet her. After that we had to go to dinner we ate with the Fernondes family and they are awesome! Their son is the member missionary and is cool. It is funny because the parents speak with Spanish accents and the kids speak with British accents. But the actual dinner was funny. We had like bread salad and these little tostada things, I was like ok a little weird but whatever. So we finished eating that and I was ready for dessert and then they bring out this big bowl of spaghetti.....so I had to eat that...then they brought out strawberry strudel and I ate that ....I have never been more full in my life haha! At least it was yummy food Ü.

 

     Wednesday I had my first split. It was with Sister Stoddard and it was in my area which meant I was supposed to know where everything was...haha that was funny. We only had a couple things we had to do but I had never been to any of the places before, so first we were supposed to go toSister Spittlers house. She is this really old lady that is being taken care of by her son Robbert. He is working full time as a translator and has to be home all the time because of his mom. We go to visit her so that Robbert can have a break. Anyways because we both had no idea how to get there we ended up being an hour late! I felt horrible but once we got there we could tell that Robbert was so relieved and it was really nice to talk to Sister Spittler. She told us her conversion story while we ate once again fish.. :( I didn´t like this so much but we also had really yummy cake and ice cream Ü. After that we went by this man's house who speaks Arabic but he wasn`t home. Then we had ward counsel and that was amazing. Our ward is sooooo awesome and so good at helping us with missionary work! Also I had to call all of these people and I need to text people. One person that I texted was this lady named Justine. I asked her if we could meet with her on Saturday and she said she couldn`t but that she would come to church! I was like ya that would be wonderful! This is really cool because not too long ago she said she would never come to church and now she is volunteering to go!!

 

     Thursday I got Sister Tuschling back!!!!! I missed her haha. After I got her back we went and visited Frau Seipel and it was fun to see her, she is sooo cute. We watched a movie with her about missionary work. So guess what we were talking to her and she just stopped us and was like wait! I have something to tell you! We were like ok... and she said I bore my testimony! This is awesome because last week we challenged her to bear her Testimony in church and she did it!! After Frau Seipel we met up with Sister Mcgill and went to teach Nita. Nita is so awesome I think she knows that the church is true and she needs to get baptized she just doesn`t want to do it haha. We were talking to her about it and she said I can`t be baptized again. Ask me anything else and I will do it but I can`t be baptized again. So that was a little sad but she is so funny. I think one day she will be baptized  but I don`t know when that day will be.

 

Friday we started out with having pancakes with the Offenbach Elders and Nika, Nika is a 21 year old girl who the Elders found and are trying to hand her off to us. Let me just tell you this girl is amazing! She is German speaking and is soo wonderful. She has such strong faith it is crazy we talked about prophets with her and she was like ok that makes sense haha. Then she saw a picture of the temple and was asking about it! She is so wonderful also I was able explain who Moroni is and why he is on the temples hehe woot! (She is excited about that because she was teaching in German)Anyways she is awesome. After that we went and picked flowers to give to Frau Koch. She is an old lady that is getting baptized soon. When we got to her house she said to us come in children and then she gave us chocolate an apple and the nasty German water ..yuck! But you ate chocolate to get the nasty taste out so it was ok haha. Anyways she has been feeling so alone and so when we talked about the holy ghost and how it can comfort her she just cried and then we promised that we would visit her every week and she was happy about that. After that we went to the stake center and had SPORT NIGHT!!!! It was so fun we played volleyball and it was cool because all the missionaries were there and the YSA too. That means Alejandra , she is a recent convert, and she is awesome. We would be best friends if I was in her ward.

 

Saturday was weird because all our lessons fell though but we did meet up with our Elders and we made a little mothers day card for all the women in our ward haha it is so funny but that is really all we did.....oh I also made a pie Ü

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sunday was amazing Christine and David both came to church!!!! All the talks and classes were awesome and then I also got to Skype with family. We also talked with the Brandes a lot and they made us raspberry milkshakes yum. Then they took us home and slipped Sister Tuschling 50 euros! for her going home outfit !! They are so nice and he is such a gentleman. They are awesome senior missionaries

 

Anyways that was my week hope you all had a wonderful week as well love you all
