September 2, 2013

O man. It sounds like both of you are having some much fun with your adventures in the British Isles. I am jealous! But like mckay said, after the mission, you can take both of us:) 

This week was good/really hard! We are having no sucess finding people to teach. We are talking with everyone, but we just can't seem to find those people being prepared to accept the gospel. I am not going to lie, it is SUPER frustrating. But it is okay, because like Ether 12:6 says, "you recieve not witness until AFTER the trial of your faith." O man, are we having trials of our faith right now, but it is okay. Seriously, the mission is the pure refiners fire. but o boy- I am learning so much. I am really struggling with the language as well. I just cant seem to get it down. Sister Freimann and the members are really trying to help me-and I am working way hard to do all I can. I am really nervous that my German is not going to be very good when I get home, but hopefully with diligence, hard work, and prayer/fasting, I will get it down. German is so stinking hard. 

One thing that has been really great about singen is that we have really been able to get to know the branch. President told us that he doesnt want us filling out time in our planner to contact or find, but that we should contact and find on the way to visit members, potentials, and less actives. So we have been going by so many people in the ward every week. Everyone has the coolest stories, and it is amazing to hear what they have been through and how they found the church. The members here are soo strong and just the greatest examples ever.

Tonight Eva, one of the ward missionaries is having a birthday party in the church for all the less actives. She is super close with a lot of the less actives, and is doing this just so the missionaries can come in contact with them. She as called all the less actives and have made sure they are coming, so today we are working with the gurney's to get prepared for that. How awesome is eva? She is constantly trying to figure out how to reach out to the less actives because she was once a less active herself. When members help the missionaries, it is the best!!

Well have so much fun in england, or ireland! Wherever you two are. Find One Direction for me and tell Harry Styles to wait for me:) heheheh

LOVE YOU GUYS
