Week 76: letzter

Image
  Well, this is it... I cannot believe this day has come. My mission means everything to me. I have learned so much and have really relied on my Savior. He's been with me every step of the way and I know that he will still be with me and I'm excited to keep walking with him. Here are a few things I've learned:)) 1. You can't find comfort in someone you don't know. Get to know your Savior.  2. What he wants is more important than what I want. 3. God has a plan, and it's a perfect one. 4. His love gives me confidence. 5. It's important to focus on what we do know.  6. Jesus Christ is the source of all Light. 7. Prayer is our personal key to heaven and the lock is on our side of the veil. 8. Complete healing comes through faith in Jesus Christ and his atonement. 9. Don't let fear replace faith. 10. Conversion is an ongoing process. 11. It's never too late to change. Start now.  12. Sometimes we get to do things we don’t necessarily want to do, but we do...

Week 75: divine trash

Can you guys believe that next week will be my last weekly ever? Ya me either...  Wednesday we were both just having a rough day. Our ward needs lots of help but no one ever answers us, we don't have a lot of friends, and it's just hard to feel like the work we do is even helping or if it's what we're supposed to do and ya basically we were crying in the kitchen trying to make banana bread... kinda funny looking back but not so funny in the moment. I said a prayer and told god that we would go out and find a miracle but we needed his help. We went to try and go visit a lady and she wasn't home and then it started dumping rain on us and it was getting late so we decided to grab dinner and get on our train back. The train hadn't quite left yet and I had finished my food and wanted to throw my trash away and I looked at my watch and saw we had 2 minutes. There is a bunch of trash cans on the platforms of the trains so I told my comp I wanted to throw my trash away....

Week 74: got robbed...

  Banger of a week! So I'm still confused and don't know how this happened.. but on Sunday we had a box with some food in it, and on the Ubahn this guy was like, "Ich will deinen Salat" (I want your lettuce). We just kinda laughed thinking he was kidding but long story short he just took it out of our box as we were exiting the ubahn... we were caught so off guard and were like did we just get robbed? So ya basically I can say I got robbed on my mission... We did give him our card tho so we better have gotten a new friend from that at least.  Wednesday was such a happy day! We had a baptism in our ward for our friend named Valera. He is 18 and from Ukraine and just so awesome. The whole night he just had the biggest smile on his face. The meeting was in English, Ukrainian, and German, and even tho I couldn't understand some parts, the spirit was so strong. After the baptism, he got up and said, "I don't know a lot of German but I will try to say what I fe...
