Week
77; April 27, 2015 – Touching Hearts and Minds One at a Time
Hey
guys it’s been a wonderful two weeks! We've made a lot of progress and we've
had a lot of fun along the way!
On Monday we took it easy,
cleaned-up the apartment and just relaxed for P-day.

| Serving in the Field |
Tuesday started-off with
a lesson with Jay. We taught him about baptism and why it's so important
in Christianity, then we asked him if he would want to be baptized. He was very
honest with us and said he wanted to be 100% sure before he made a commitment
like that. But he respected that we were bold enough to ask. He said he'd keep
reading the Book of Mormon and he said he will do all he can to find out for
himself if the church is really true!
Later, we went to see Stefan
and got him excited to quit drinking beer! He is completely ready to stop,
and he had already gone a few days without a drink when we had the lesson!

| Happy Birthday Elder Bybee! |
Karin had us over the
next day and gave us some cake that she had bought for Elder Bybee's birthday,
she's the sweetest lady ever.
Later in the week we visited
Stefan again with Heeke. We taught him about tithing. He accepted it
pretty well. He said he needs to pray about it, but he understands the
concept and he said he's be willing if it felt right.

The following Monday, we went down to Malmö for Elder Bybee's visa papers. We spent the rest of the day touring Malmö with Elder Corbin and we got some amazing pictures of a beautiful city!
On Tuesday and Wednesday
we contacted a lot of people and we felt really blessed and we hope to start
teaching them soon!

We went on splits on
Thursday and I had a blast! I went down to Malmö again with Elder Beck and
we had an awesome day! We taught with the other Elders who are both good
friends of mine. Then we went to the church and one of their investigators made
us dinner! She was from Greece and made a Greek lasagna that I she called moussaka,
it was super good! Afterward, we played Innabondi and talked with some of the young
adults. We went back to the apartment and Elder Beck and I told stories
for the rest of the night before going to bed. It was one of my favorite missionary
splits ever!
We came back on Saturday
and contacted people like crazy. We found three new potential investigators!
Afterward, we taught Stefan about prayer and the spirit helped us give him a
powerful lesson that opened his eyes to how truly important prayer really
is.
On Sunday, Elder Bybee
gave a talk in church and we got to meet Senja's parents from Germany. They
were really nice and they could also speak serval languages like Senja… haha!
It was an awesome two
weeks and I don't want my time here to end! This has been so great. I'm going
to put my all into the next two weeks and make them great!
Love - Äldste
