Week 27: coolest week ever


The prettiest hike

 Guten tag! Another great week here in Vienna! I feel like all the days and weeks blend together and I struggle with remembering what I did for the day so writing for the week is a challenge... So sorry I'm always so scatterbrained.

This week was super busy! We had two exchanges so that was a bit hectic but super fun. We got to watch the best 2 years and oh man I don't think I've ever related more to a movie. I don't know if it was the funniest movie ever or if I just have been on the mission too long and I'm at the point where everything is funny. But either way I was dying laughing. Highly recommend. 


How I met your mother?


Yesterday was such a good day. We have been working with a part member family in our ward and have been doing come follow me lessons with them every week. They are the cutest little family. There is twin girls that are 9, a 14 year old boy, and a 15 year old girl. All the girls have been planning to get baptized on September 19th which is seriously so cool and we are so excited! The boy hasn't really been participating in the calls and we don't really have a great relationship with him but this week he went on a temple trip with all the youth and had such a good experience. He was on the call yesterday and told us he also wants to be baptized with the rest of his siblings!! The mom asked us to do a quiz with all of the lessons so we literally were able to teach all of the lessons and it was such a cool experience. They all bore their testimonies at the end and they were the most pure, simple testimonies and the spirit was so strong. They all are so excited and just seeing the mom feel so proud of her kids was so cool. Seeing the change the gospel has brought to their family has been such a blessing and I am so grateful I have gotten to be apart of their journey. The gospel seriously brings so much joy.

One of the little girls testimony really just hit me and it was so simple. She just said how she can't fall sleep until she says her prayers and that's how she knows that God is there. I loved that. That's all she needed to know that God loves her and that he is there. A lot of times God works in little ways and we have little experiences that remind us that he is there. This week I want to challenge you guys to look for the little things that remind you that God is there and is mindful of YOU. He knows you, he knows what you need, and he is there for you.

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...
