Hey Everyone!
Well this week was just full of non stop movement... from being in Stadthagen to Hannover to Minden... I was just all over the place haha...
One Monday to Wednesday Morning I was in Stadthagen with Elder Blauer! Man We had so much fun! On our tausch I decided to go through their Area Book because they have 3! Which is rediculous and they are just full of people that havent been contacted for years! So I went through them pulling out as many numbers as I could find... and I got like 58 or something like that haha So I just called Everyone! haha some of them had no idea who we were, others told me I was crazy ( Like I dont already know that! Jeeze!), but there were 2 ladies I called and both of them starting yelling Elders! Elders! Iv missed you, you have to come visit me, so I sent up two appointments with these ladies for Stadthagen and they are eating appointments! Man, lucky punks! I want eating appointments, because my cooking is killing me! haha
On Wednesday we met back for District meeting and Elder Lersch(Zone Leader) Stayed with me in Minden... Which wasnt very fun... lol We went and visited this 90 year old member again... and she forgot who we were and then said we didnt have an appointment with her and then E. Lersch was like lets go... then she said wait I have cake.. So I said to Elder Lersch, Well we should probably stay and eat cake with her, that would be nice :) haha So we somehow got sucked into a 2 hour eating cake appointment... which I thought I was gonna die because she had so much cake...seriously she bought 2 big cakes and then was like '' cut both of them you can eat them both'' and we knew there was no way we were going to eat all the cake... but she made us cut them.. then when we couldnt finish the 1st cake she got mad saying why did you open and cut the 2nd cake! haha I was dying laughing... i guess its just probably one of those things you have to be there to understand... Then Right after her we went to an investigators house named Herr Schneider and he is just flat out rediculous... he doesnt let us talk and just wants to know what we know about the roman catholic church hahah and he takes notes throughout the whole lesson, so he makes you repeat yourself just so he can write the notes down! haha but it made me so mad, Elder Lersch just got fed up and just walked out of his house, and left me in there... so i had to apologize to the guy and set up a new appointment, while Elder Lersch was outside... Dumb Elders, someone lets you in their house, Have Respect for them!!! That was pretty mucht the extent of our tausch for that day.. and we met in Hannover the next day so we could exchange back..
On friday we got a call from Sch. Neubauer.. We eat at her house every friday at 12.. She is in her late 70's. She called and said sorry elders cant meet cuz I hit my head on the wall and hurt my hand and back... but then she was upset because she already made the food and wanted us to come over at 2 to pick it up... so at 2 we went over and seriously she looked like she was gonna die any moment... she was so pale and at the top of her head was a gash with dried blood and she was wearing her back brace... and she cooked everything for us in that state... I was so shocked, i told her she shouldnt worry about us when she is hurt.. we offered a blessing but she didnt want it but wanted us to eat right then even we were there to pick it up... so we ate and as we are leaving she had gone into another room to grab something and so we waited and she didnt come back.. so I walked into the other room and she was sitting on the couch staring out the window... and I asked if she was okay and she asked how I got in there.. it was pretty scary so I called people in the ward to take care of her... but right now she is doing okay.. im glad. so on thursday this week were gonna do all her shopping for her..
Saturday we had Spiel Abend ( Game Night) at the church it was way fun... and I beat everyone at kicker or table soccer.. So that was fun.. and Sunday was just our normal sunday except a member passed away, it was pretty sad. Her name was Sch. Riechmann, President Hinkleys son baptised her... She took E.Christensen to Mcdonalds and also made us dinner twice.. really nice lady! Well it was a interesting week... but still a good one... I cant believe were almost in Febuary, soon to be 2 E. Popp's in the Field... Das Kann Gar Nicht Schief Gehen!... haha
Schöne Woche und Alles Gute!
