Wow this week has been quite good despite having a lack of lessons. We had some service and mission tour this week which was amazing.  This week we had the wonderful opportunity to have a mission wide conference with Elder Kopischke (co-pish-ka) one the councilors in the Europe area presidency. Elder Kopischke is from Germany and he spoke to our mission about a few different things. He emphasized the role and power of the Book Of Mormon. He talked about the concept of "walk with me" in this case walk with the savior. We don't just give our friends the knowledge of the Gospel and let them get to the tree of life. We walk with them and bring them along the path. Elder Menzel and I are really going to try to implement this into our work. We loved all the insights and the spirit testified to me once again and assured to me that the Book of Mormon is indeed TRUE. Other things I liked were the tools we have available for us to help those around us come to know the truth. Tools ...

What's going on everyone? Hope you're all doing well. This week was quite average for the most part. Nothing tooo exciting except for turning 20 officially not a teenager anymore!  So weve done a bunch of service and that has been going well. Our friend Vanda that we are doing service for was planning to have an elderly day center but because of covid that idea wouldn't work and she was getting stressed about not being able to pay for the center and that she might lose it. Luckily the spirit inspired her and she is switching it to a doggy day center instead! We are helping her get everything set up and hopefully will be able to help her play with the dogs when it's up and running.  We also taught our friend Amanda and she is doing well. We are involving a member who has had similar experiences and a single mom as well so I'm excited for that. We are planning to have another call with Mary this week. We had a really good call this past week and we felt a lot of love/...

Hey everyone how are you all doing? These past two weeks have been fairly good. We had transfers and it turns out I'll be staying and given some responsibilities to train and lead a district. It feels a bit overwhelming and wasn't too thrilled but excited to grow and stretch from this experience.  So no real big updates on our friends we are slowly working to meet with friends in person and over call. I would love if you could include them in your prayers if you could. There names are: Mary, Corrie, Amanda, Tanya, and Jon. If you could pray for them to have spiritual experiences as well that would be much appreciated.  Weve also had a ton of service as well which is always great and it breaks up the day. I think we have built some really good relationships with these people and it could eventually lead to sharing things about the Gospel a bit more. I pray that they may have there hearts open and guided by the spirit.  We met up with some other Elders and played some spike...
