Week 22: die beste antwort

 Welcome back to the weekly! We had a crazy week with so many miracles and blessings! 

 

Aight story time!! Every week we have a meal appointment with this cute little old couple and this week they surprised us with some matching pants. Super sweet of them. They wanted us to try them on right then. We wore them all through the appointment and then didn't want to be rude and change so we wore them all the way back to our apartment… it was sooo funny. We were wearing shirts that clashed pretty bad with them and on top of that we had our dress shoes on... let's just say our pants turned more heads than our name tags usually do. And that's a lot haha I'll make
sure to send the photo so yall don't miss out. 

 

We had zone conference this week! And guess what your girl had to do! My favoritest thing ever!! I had to give a talk… Yes, another one! That's two weeks in a row! I thought since I gave one last week I would be safe for at least a little but nope! I can't decide which was worse.. giving a talk in German to a bunch of Austrian people I don't know or giving a talk in English to a room full of missionaries. Both were definitely out of my comfort zone and I am very glad they are over! Zone conference was amazing though and the spirit was so strong. There were so many answers to questions I've been struggling with.

 


These last couple of weeks I have had a hard time feeling like I have been making a difference here. It's been quite the adjustment with everything especially the missionary work. In Mississippi, everyone loved Jesus and talking about Jesus and I feel like we had so many friends to teach and here it's just very different. On Wednesday I said a very specific prayer that I could feel that I had helped someone come closer to god. We went through the day and our very last lesson we had was with a new convert named Mitra. Mitra is an angel. Like seriously the sweetest person I've ever met. We read in the Book of Mormon and at the end, I was able to bear my testimony. Right as we said amen she looked at us and said, "thank you guys, you helped me feel closer to god today." I kid you not it was the same wording and everything. God answered my prayer and it was such a tender mercy that I needed. 


 

I'm super grateful for answered prayers and for tender mercies. God knows us perfectly and knows exactly what we need. One of my favoritest things I heard this week is, "there is no rest like serving the Lord
." I'm grateful to be a part of his work. 

 

Make it a great week! Love you guys so much!

Week 25: Cook the Rice

  Servus! I hope you all had an amazing week:)) I had a wild one and it was awesome!! Also, this one's kinda long so sorry bout it.  I had a funny German whoops this week. I have them at least 5 times a day but this one made me laugh. We were at a members house and the last time we were there she gave us some coupons and so I was telling her that we used them to buy some things but instead of saying bought (gekauft) I said getauft which means baptized hahaha guess that's just what's on my mind… anyways kinda funny thought I'd share. We got to get together with our whole mission for a mission conference and it was sooo fun. I am exhausted tho and think I might need a week to recover haha. It started out with a 7-hour train ride straight into street finding. Picture this… 136 missionaries hit the streets in one of the biggest cities in Germany and give out 200+ books of Mormon. Basically coolest thing ever. And your girl gave out her first book of Mormon in Deutsch!!! Let...

Week 39: tracting! And ET?

Image
  Being on a mission is a roller coaster let me tell ya… some days are just the best and others ya not so much but hard things make us stronger if we let them and that is something I am grateful for.  So I basically got told yesterday that I am being ET'd in a week!!! I am so sad about it! I was almost positive I was gonna be transferred but I was expecting to at least finish out the transfer. Anyways I've basically been living here in Austria illegally for about 3 months.. I don't have any visa and they're basically gonna have to sneak me over the border so that's kinda scary… don't know what's gonna happen because I also don't have a German visa and ya it's just a big mess. Pray, I don't get deported! On Thursday we finally had a free afternoon with no appointments, so we decided to stop by some less active members. The first one wasn't there so we wrote him a note and then decided since we were already let into the building that we would t...

Week 11: Life is Good

  Hey y'all!! We had zone conference this week and oh man it was too good. We talked a lot about giving it our all out here on the mission. We only get this experience once and so we need to give it 100%. I loved hearing all of the missionaries talk about their experiences and it made me remotivated to keep working hard and doing my best every day! We also had exchanges this week which was super fun! I got to go to Madison Mississippi for a day! They actually have stores and restaurants and stuff… very different than our small town here in Mendenhall.  Kinda a silly story for y'all… we were walking to a member's house and this boy was walking right behind us and slowly caught up to us and so we said hi and he had a very thick accent so we didn't really know what he was saying. He went a different direction than us and then about a minute later he ran to us and said, "yal...
