OK first before I forget answer the questions MLC is
Missionary Leadership council 2nd cycle is the same as 2nd transfer. Transfers
are this Saturday. I think when I come home I will be pretty much fluent but
not good grammar. There are a lot of people that live here that are not native
Germans but in our ward I think most are. Something different is a lot of the
women wear pants to church also not members (hopefully haha) but everywhere
there are SMOKERS!!! SO annoying also you have to carry your groceries home in
a bag. Umm ya that is all I can think of now. Ok now on to comments!!!! I like
your choice of car it looks really nice! Also good color choice! That is so
awesome that you got to go to an Elton John concert I am so JELLLY! It looked
so cool. Ok now on to the week!!!!
Tuesday was kind of boring, first I must say Sister Miller
was sick almost this whole week, ok so on Tuesday she started to feel worse and
it was funny because we had 3 appointments but 2 of them fell out. That gave us
time for Sister Miller to stay inside and not get other people sick and it was
really good because we got to catch up on some of paper work. We did meet with
Sister Wieker though and she was super nice. She ended up giving us a referral
and making us right then make a card to put into the referral´s mail box haha.
She is so cute and she was super concerned about Sister Miller and how she
looks sick. After Sister Wieker we got to be in charge of the mutual which
ended up being just one young women but it was still fun. We did a scavenger
hunt that used preach my gospel. I think she had fun and learned. We had this
one stop where she read about the fall of Adam and Eve and about how they had
to partake of the forbidden fruit to progress and then we cut up an apple and
wrote forbidden fruit above of it and she had to eat some before she could
finish the hunt haha. I thought it was cute. It was really fun to do it. I hope
they ask us again.
Wednesday Sister Miller was felling worse so we wound up
doing some more paper work and making a lot of phone calls, which was good. Then
we had ward night where everyone told Sister Miller she needs to stay home and
SLEEP so Sister Miller canceled the split we were supposed to go on and Bishop
and his wife drove us home but not before buying prune juice for her to drink
the next day haha and Sister Miller went to sleep
Thursday Sister Miller slept 17 hours! It wasn´t so bad for
me except feeling like I didn´t get much done. I got to read a lot in the Book
of Mormon which was good. And I organized the pantry the cupboards and the
fridge so now our apartment is super clean :) Good thing Heavenly Father knew
what she needed because we did have 3 appointments scheduled but all except the
last one fell out. The last one was Sister Kozlik and I didn´t care how sick
Sister Miller was we were going to that appointment haha. Sister Miller felt
the same way so she woke up in time for us to plan a lesson and to get there on
time. We get there and she had forgotten that we were coming haha. She let us
come in none the less and we had a really good lesson but she told Sister
Miller to go home and go to sleep haha. All the members are soo nice here. They
all were giving Sister Miller things that they thought would make her better
and all said if you need anything CALL ME I don´t care what time of the day it
is CALL! So sweet! Love this ward!
Friday Sister Miller still wasn´t feeling too good but we
had Zone training where she was part of so we had to go and I am glad we did. I
always love those meetings I love to hear from all the different missionaries
and get new ideas and find out what I need to change so that I can be more
effective. It was also funny because in the morning I said to Sister Miller I
am going to miss watching the Polar Express this Christmas and at Zone Training
during the break we listened to the story the Polar Express while drinking hot
chocolate! Heavenly Father is taking good care of me haha. After Zone training
we went and taught our English class and that went well except Sister Miller
and me don´t know enough about ´´´´´those things apparently whoops! After we
played ping pong with the Family that always comes. I don´t know if I have told
you but Ping Pong is SUPER popular in Germany! They have ping pong tables all
over the place in parks it is crazy!
Saturday Sister Miller was feeling better but not all the
way and one of our appointments fell out so she took a short nap. It was funny
after her nap I asked her how she felt and she said like I have been hit by a
truck...so not too good ha-ha. At one point she just stood looking out the
window and said HIMMLISCHER VATER! (Heavenly Father) ha-ha she is tired of
being sick. But then we had an appointment with Angelika and we talked about
service. It was a really good lesson. She talked a lot and that always makes
the lesson better when the person we are teaching talks a lot. After Angelika
we went by on our referral again and this time her mom/grandma (we don´t know)
answered the door and said that she would tell her to call us so hopefully we
get a call this week or else we will have to go out there again. She lives
about an hour and a half away so three hours total that is a lot of time!
Sunday was cool. We were able to give the thought in Relief
Society and that went well. We talked about Family History and how it is super
important to read D&C 128:15 and you will find out why. Then we were able
to teach the investigator class which was on Baptism and it was fun to hear
what people thought and said about it. Then in sacrament meeting one of our
investigators just showed up and we were able to set up an appointment with her
and it was nice for me to meet her haha. Then we went to the Skopek´s for
dinner and that was really nice. They are the cutest couple! So nice. Yup that
was my week hope you all had good weeks too LOVE YOU ALL
