Germany Week 97

Dear Mom,

This week was okay. I was a little sick the last half of the week, so that was fun. It wasn't that bad though, so life mostly just went on as usual.

Turns out those one Persians live in Much, which means it takes forever to get to Bonn and the buses don't run very early, so the earliest they could get to church is an hour or two after it starts. Hopefully we'll still meet with them sometime this week though and then we can figure something out. Also we found out on Sunday that Shahab's brother-in-law has read all of The Book of Mormon and apparently has a lot of questions, so hopefully we'll be able to work something out with that family too. Should be awesome.

Other than that, nothing too exciting happened this... Yeah...

Love you more!!!

Germany Week 96

Dear Mum,

I have no idea what happened this week. Even though neither I nor my companion got transfered, the beginning of the new transfer definitely made things a little weird. First we had to help the other Elders move because their trains left from Bonn, so that took some time. We also spent a day going up to Düsseldorf to do some things to start the transfer off. Great fun.

Leider, we didn't get to meet with Sh's family this week, but we're still hoping for sometime soon. Also, a different Persian family wanted to come to church on Sunday, but they took the wrong bus or something, but they're still interested, so hopefully that works out. We also met with Z and R. That was awesome.

Um... yeah...

Love you more!!!

Germany Week 95

Dear Mum,

This week was pretty great. Sh- and Sa- did indeed end up getting baptized and that was an awesome experience. They were both so ready. Throughout the whole program Sa- kept thanking us and then after his confirmation on Sunday he continued to do so. Sh- also invited his sister and her family and they all really seemed to enjoy it and feel the spirit. They came to the baptism and the confirmation and stayed for all of church and they seem really interested, so hopefully stuff happens with that.

Yay! From left to right: me, Sh-, H-, Sa-, Elder Davis
In other news this week, transfers happened. Nothing too exciting there. I'm staying with Elder Davis here in Bonn, like we thought. It was pretty funny though because most of the people in the district thought I was going home, so when they found out I was staying they were a little confused. So that was amusing.

Well, I can't think of anything else exciting, so have a great week!

Love you more!!!

Germany week 94

Dear Mum,

This week was pretty swell. General Conference is the best. There was so much in it that I don't even remember what else happened this week. No, I think I remember some things, but Conference was super great. What's more two way super awesome investigators were there. Also a random guy showed up and then we talked with him and set up another appointment, so that's cool.

Anyway, speaking of those two investigators, I don't think I've told you yet because life has been so crazy with other things lately, but they're hopefully getting baptized on Saturday. They're way awesome and are Persian, just like the last two. Serving in Bonn has sure made me appreciate Elder Kearon's talk. I love that man. And I love Persians. They're the best.

Well, that's all I really remember from this week, but let's face it, that's enough stuff for the next month or two, so yeah. Y'all have a nice week now.

Love you more!!!
Isaac
