Skateboard To Find!

Hey everyone!

 Well this week was completely, utterly just work! Im am so exhausted... Do you know how many new appointments we made out this week??... wait for it.... 21 new appointments! hahah So sweet! like our goal is to get 7 a week as a mission and we got 21 because we.... well were are just blessed haha So my new comp is Elder Hunziker... He is pretty cool. But pretty much its a business relationship haha if thats what you want to call it. Its all about missionary work here, we dont play around haha Na Ja, I probably have to learn to be more serious.. But yeah we had a super busy week..

So the coolest story of my mission happened this week... We saw some kids skateboarding and we were like what the heck, lets go ask if we can skateboard with them. So we went up to the kids and just started speaking flat out english with them.. HEy guys can we try? and then they totally let us skateboard with them and we hung out and talked with them for like 30 minutes and I showed them pictures of motocross and what not, oh man it was so sweet, there all coming this wednesday for english class.. and were gonna teach them about the gospel after! Is that sick or what?

Then we had to do another 2 Service projects this week, one with Ringo, moving is trash from his old apartment to some dumpster... but like seriously 4 germans came out and yelled at us and ringo and said we couldnt do that and what not, so they called the police and we had to book it to the bus! haha It was crazy. But we made it out alive and home safely.. Supposedly ringo had a permit or something for it but didnt have it with him to show the police.. Probably just lying.lol Then we went to my good friend Ruhnau again and help finish cleaning his apartment, from where Elder Colton & I left off.. man that sucked, his bathroom was disgusting, i will spare you all and just not even describe it! haha

Oh man it gets better, We met with a eternal investigator on Friday night.. and he knows the book of mormon is true but just wont admit it. He is just afraid that his wife who died is going to come back and haunt him from the grave, if he gets baptized..So we totally taught a way cool lesson, about how to find a true answer to the book of mormon and what that means, and how the priesthood can pull families into the eternity. He is also afraid that he would go to the celestial kingdom without his family and he would rather go to ''hell'' with his family then to heaven with them.. So we cleared everything up and the spirit was way strong, and he accepted to be baptized on May 26th.. So cool!!! haha

Saturday was just flat out rediculous.. we had to wake up early like at 5 to go to Neubrandenburg for a training meeting, and we were waiting for our bus right, and we realized the bus wasnt going to come and take us to the bahnhof (train station) and so we had to book it all the way down, seriously I almost died, and then we reached the bahnhof and walked over the bridge just to wave goodbye to our train that we were supposed to catch...( this is when I needed the guy to come out and play a song on the small violin hahah).. oh man I was so ticked.. we had to wait like a hour and half till the next one but it worked out and I got to work with my comp from the MTC for 3 hours while the others were in meetings, so that was fun..

Church was great as usual, but after church was the best part.. We went and visited Schwester Scheleit and her mother.. Her mother turned 102 and they had a ton of cake they wanted us too eat.. Oh man, seriously, this 102 old lady is probably the smartest lady ever, and she is in super good shape for a 102..Oh man but she was hilarious, she was totally hitting on me! haha Who can say that, a 102 year old woman hit on you? This guy. haha Seriously she was like, Elder when I die, im taking your eyes with me! haha and then she kept trying to get E. Hunziker and I to give her a kiss.. I wouldv given her one on the cheek but, yeah...E.Hunziker wasnt down for that.. But when we were leaving she shook my hand and was like wait, I just want to look at you handsome face for a minute! hahhahaha oh man, it was hilarious..

Well thats all for this week, im totally pooped.. Elder Hunziker, talks to everyone and everything lol.. So that means I do to, which is not bad, but tough.. but yeah Thanks for all your prayers, und Alles Gute!

Schöne Woche

Tschüß
