Hello Family!!
O it has been a wonderful week in the beautiful, rainy, cold Munich. Can you believe that it is already June? I can't because I am still wearing a jacket and a scarf everyday. The weather here has been so crazy. It has rained everyday for like 3 weeks now and it is freezing but I am actually loving it!! Everyone hates it, but I am loving the rain. Even though I come home completely soaked every night, but it is fun. Supposedly a lot of the place in Germany are flooding? I am not sure though, but that is how the weather has been here! All the Germans are saying this is crazy and not normal.
I am LOVING MUNICH so much right now. O my gosh. Yesterday was just amazing. My ward and those I teach are seriously the coolest and the best ever!!!!! Ahh I am just so full of gratitude and love. I am nervous because there is a HUGE possibility that I will be getting transferred. I will find out on Friday. I am one of the older sisters in the mission because their are so many new younger ones. Isn't that weird? I have only been out 3 transfers and I am an older sister. It blows my mind and freaks me out. haha But yesterday was an amazing fast Sunday. Sister Smith and I were able to fast with Marja so she would receive the answers that she was looking for. The spirit was so strong at church and it was just such an awesome experience to be able to fast with her. Before our ward potluck, we were able to go into the other room and say a prayer on our knees to break our fast. The spirit was so strong!! So strong. Marja told us that she loved church and really loves the people. She also said she needs to remember the answers she has already received and just remember what she already knows to be true about the church. We were so excited. She has come so far and is making so much progress. I know she will get baptized. I know it, and she will be such a strong, solid member that the church here needs. I am just so grateful for Marja. She is just amazing and I want to be best friends with her forever. She is so cool and is such an example to me. She is really huge into cross fit and yoga and she has inspired me. I will be doing those when I get home. haha Marja actually texted us after church yesterday and told us that she made us workouts for the mornings. I am excited and also really scared. haha
Also, yesterday I just couldn't stop talking about our family. I love our family so much. I love how diverse it is. I just feel so blessed that I was placed into our family. Mom and dad, ya'll are seriously the best and I am so incredibly grateful for ya'll. I wish I could just give both of you a huge hug right now!!
Sorry I can't contain myself right now. I am just soo happy!! Really. It is awesome. Munich is wonderful and I have finally fallen in love with it. It is the BEST. German is slowly coming along. Birko is so nice. Yesterday at church she was telling me how shocked she has been with how much I have improved with German. She said I am doing really great with it. That gives me hope, but I know I still have a LONG way to go. REALLY LONG WAY. I want to get so good at German. This week is Sister Smith and I's only German speaking week, so it should be interesting.
Mom, i got the packages this week! Thank you sooo much!! The peanut butter has been the best. I love peanut butter! hahah Also, tell Shaun and Rachel to wait just a few months to get married so i can be there!! Tell all the family they are the best and I love them. I talk about ya;ll all the time to my investigators and the members in my ward.
O also! So last week we had an appointment with a lady in our ward and I told her that I was related to Hyrum and Mary Fielding Smith, well it touched her and she bore her testimony about it in church yesterday. Well then the whole ward kept coming up to me and asking about it and they seriously think it is so cool that I am a descendent of him, because so many of them are converts and they don't come from a line from the beginning of the church. It is really cool how excited and happy they were to find that out. ahh My ward is just so awesome.
Well I have to go, I love you guys!! Today we are going to BMW Welt with our district. It should be fun to look at all the cars. Also, mom, when ya'll go on your cruise, make sure you are here in Munich for a Sunday and go to the Munich 3 ward and meet the ward where I serve in!! Would'nt that be awesome???
Okay love you!!
Sister Allman:) Sorry this letter is all over the place!
