Hey everybody it has been a good week! Crazy though! It has been soooo hot here. Oh my goodness! And my comp had a car in this area the last transfer and I still don't have an IPad to help him figure out the bus and train routes so we miss so many freaking trains and what not. It's super maddening but whatever I guess.
The heels of my feet bleed every day. I don't have the best walking shoes to say the least but they will be dope scars after the mission. Neosporin saves lives!!
Hanau is such a ghetto, Turkish town but it is pretty fun. The ward here is all homies. Oh my gosh! The little guys love BVB Dortmund, the soccer team here, and they love the Yankees (mostly because it is the only team they know.) They also love the Seattle Seahawks because the jerseys have green on them. It is pretty funny. Some play for an American football team here so we showed them the football highlights. It was funny. Members are so supportive.
Elder Golden and I have found so many potential investigators here and we are really hoping for some baptisms soon but we don't want to jinx it. Elder Beatson and I went on a split to Wettarau and found 4 potential investigators and it was blazing hot but still so fun. He is dope. He is from New Zealand and he just got done being trained. He will play rugby for BYU and he loves fishing and hunting and surfing. We get along really well.
The work is really progressing. Germans are hard nose people who basically don't believe in anything but drinking and smoking so everyday is a grind and we have fun with it. Reading in the BOM and praying everyday is crucial to daily progression!!! Whenever you need to feel the spirit, read the first vision out loud to yourself. It is such powerful scripture and the spirit always testifies of truth!
There is a car called a DACIA here and i see fidget spinners everywhere so I get a little home sick from those. Thanks, Dacia and Trevin :) and shout out to Jaylee this week! She's turning 15 on the 27th!!!
Here are some pics from this week. Döners here are way good and here are some pics of the apartment and stuff.
Love you all.

This is a family in my ward, they are crazy hahahaha but so fun. They had us over and turns out they are super good friends with the Fraziers back in my home ward! Off the bat, Brother Klien was like you're my new favorite missionary. I wish I was an American. I love big trucks and I love Alpine.
I really wanna bring them over when I get home in a few years. They are so nice. Sister Klien served a mission waaaayyy back when and Brother Klien is like inactive and smokes but he loves the Mormon Messages and believes in anything and is actually coming to church this week, so I'm stoked.
