Servus!

I think this week has been by far the best of my mission. I'm not going to lie,  I was really struggling for a while, and then this week everything finally clicked.

It started off when we got to meet the New Deutschers at the Airport! It was soo fun being able to pick them up and see them again from the MTC. I was soo excited. They all apparently knew I was serving in Munich because one of their moms saw my blog? I am not sure. But it definitely was a happy reunion. I got to take 3 of the sisters out and help them contact on the Ubahn. Contacting on the Ubahn usually terrifies me, but because I had to take them, it helped me soo much and I am not scared anymore. I was so proud of how brave I was and that I was able to do it. The new sisters did really well.  Because they were so great at it, it helped me overcome my fear. It was such a blessing that Sister Stowell and I were able to help because it was just what I needed.

On Thursday we got to help again with the Deutschers to get them to Hauptbahnhof to get transfered. That was fun because there were like 50 missionaries in the train station, hopping on trains to their new areas. It was like a huge reunion. How cool is that? The missionaries in the mission are now my new second family. It is really cool and I feel so lucky that I get to experience it. We also picked up our new companion! She is actually way cool and she is perfect for our companionship.

So many wonderful miracles have happened this week. First, last Sunday this lady just showed up at church. Her name is Britta and when she was about 10 her family was taught by the missionaries. The missionaries were actually a huge part of her life when she was younger and she said when they were around she was the happiest she has ever been. Well her family did not get baptized and she stopped meeting with them. Now 35 years later she wanted to try out the church again. She loved it and asked if she could meet with us. That seriously never happens. People don't usually come to you in Germany. haha But we met with her and all I could think about while we were teaching her, is that the Lord has prepared her. She still has a lot of questions and is way skeptical about the church, but I have no doubt that she will get baptized. I just know it.

Saturday was my favorite day so far. First we went to the Jadike Familie's house who were a referral. They were being met by the missionaries in Frankfurt but then moved here a little outside of Munich. They are this couple with 4 kids ages 7-14. As soon as I walked into their house I just looked at them and I knew they would be baptized one day. They already seem like a mormon family. In fact, they would be the PERFECT mormon family. We ate lunch with them and then talked with them and they are amazing. I love them so much. We have another appointment with them this Saturday and I just know that they will be baptized someday. I am so excited.

Later that night we had an appointment with one of our investigators Andreas. He was met by some other sisters. He had gone up to them at the Bahnhof and told them the spirit told him to talk to them. How awesome is that?? We have met with him 3 times, and the 2nd  time he had already read from 1 Nephi thru Mosiah, and then this 3rd time we met with him he had read Alma to Mormon. We had a really wonderful lesson with him and I was able to commit him to baptism!!  It was so cool that my very first time asking, and he said YES! I was so happy. We didn't set a date, because he wants more time, but it was just cool that I was able to ask and he said yes. There still is a lot more that needs to happen, and just because he said yes doesn't mean anything, but the Lord has truely prepared him. I just know it.

It is so cool to see the Lord's hand in this work. I have never prayed so much in my life, and wow has the Lord answered my prayers. I am really falling in love with Munich the longer I am here. There are just so many wonderul people here and I just feel so blessed that I get to teach them.

This church is true! It really is. I miss yall so much. and I hope yall have a wonderful easter!! Just know you have a daughter in Munich, Germany that loves the heck out of yall:)
