Week 52- "Slow churned, double cream, free-range, butter. 🐟"

Another week on the mission gone, leider.

I have officially been on German soil for a year now. Crazy how fast the time has gone and how much has changed in just a year.

Happy birthday to the pops on the 9th!

Friday we were ripping in on the streets and found some pretty cool nerds. We have a few appointments that we hope to work out. We had a street display in the blazing heat on Saturday for 4 hours and found 0 people. That was a pretty humbling day.

Sunday was sick. Since the Bamberg ward no longer exists we had a lot of new faces in the sacrament meeting. Elder Whitney and I were asked to speak. He spoke on Faith in Jesus Christ and absolutely killed it for only being in his second transfer. I spoke in Geduld (humility) and that was fun I guess. Afterward, we had the frat opportunity of giving a blessing to a member who was sick. It’s always a special experience to use the priesthood and give blessings.

The rest of the week included us meeting with our girl Mitra and then meeting with our man Gustaf who loves his opinions on the doctrine in the Bible, district meeting, I ate a Döner for the first time in a while and the rest was routine missionary work.

I am more than grateful for this past year of my life. I don’t know how to describe it so I won’t even try, but I will say my relationship with God and Jesus Christ have never been so strong. This gospel is perfect 

 

I and Elder Whitney will be wrapping up his “training” this week. I have learned much more from him than he has from me I am sure of it. It has been some of the funnest times on my mission. The kid is amazing. I hope I get to stay another transfer with him here in Coburg. We get transfer calls Saturday so who knows what’ll happen.

Oh ya, Friday-Sunday is the second biggest Brazilian celebration in the world and it is right here in Coburg Germany for some reason. Coburg goes from 40,000 to 400,000 people for 3 days. Pray for us this weekend!

Love ya guys have a good week.
