Hey everyone!
Well, Life is good here in Glückstadt! I really like this little town! Its way fun! Well I have to say I have the best district! Its so much fun being with them! We do the dumbest stuff! haha Ask ben! I mean Elder Gibson lol. but yeah Im having alot of fun! Well my first transfer is pretty much over! We get transfer calls on Saturday so thatll be cool! Im so excited!
So this week, We met with a few investigators: Frau Heyer, She is like 70 years old but we go over there every wednesday and she is so nice! she always feeds us stuff from the backery! But besides that, she has been meeting with the missionarys for like 4 months or so, and now she is actually reading the book of mormon without us pleading to her to read haha So yeah its cool to see people progress. I think the biggest thing she has to deal with is, Why should I join this, Im about to die kinda feeling. So yeah that Kinda sucks but were working with her. Next is Olaf, Olaf is a member but the rest of his family isnt. So we meet with them weekly as well! They are way nice, except we go on tangents about star trek or star wars all the time haha and who would win against each other haha Way funny! We have other investigators but we havent been able to make a appointment out with them so hopefully we can this weekend. Since its such a small town, they do alot of community get togethers or partys lol. So people are always gone at those and its hard to talk with people in those because they are so drunk off their rocker they can barely walk haha People Drink more beer here than water its crazy. Actually i think beer is cheaper here than water! Lol.
Well since Iv been here its been raining alot! so mom I tried using the umbrellas u gave me, but they had no chance with the germany rain!! haha So i had to buy a legit umbrella! It rains like buckets, I cant even explain how hard it rains! like it hurts if it hits you because there is so much lol but on friday we got rained on so hard. It was flying horizontally, like how it does for Nate Waggoner! There was like no way we could go out! It sucked so we were inside for a long time, then it cleared up a little, or should I say eased up lol. So we tried to go outside and as soon as we went outside and were like a mile or two from our apartment, We get hit by a huge rain storm again lol. As Lynn would always say CRRRAP!! hahaha Papa Lynn I miss you! haha But yeah so plenty of fun, excited, tough experiences here in Germany!
Alright so we went and did gardening work for some member here. So how it works here, is people buy house property and then they will buy like gartening property somewhere in the meadows or what not. So we drove out to here garten, man this place was a mess! haha So we went to work. I showed my companion how to use hedgeclippers and lawnmower and what not lol! Im glad I actually know how to work, because that was a tough day for my comp. I was like this is fun! I like cleaning up these gardens! I always like the look of things after you work hard to make it look good! lol. So, the garden is on a acre and surrounding the garden is like a wall of bushes, so I hedged all of the way around it! Man I was pooped! because the germans, they want everything done in order, or neat looking. So it needed to be in a perfect square shape , with the edges shaved down lol So I felt like Picasso! Needless to say it was hard, but something different than knocking on doors, so I liked It!
Well, Thats pretty much all for this week! Oh yeah so if any of you have ideas for object lessons, Send them to me! I will definitely use them. I like object lessons! at first my comp was like thats a dumb idea to do it. Im like well lets test it out, If it sucks then we wont do object lessons. But seriously everyone loves them! So if you got anything let me know!
Well I love all of you! Ich bete für Euch täglich ( I pray for you (all) daily)
Tscüß
