Yoo what's up! This is going to be quick but we had a good week. Me and my comp are having a good time here and have about a week left before transfers. It's been super fire.  This week nothing too crazy happened. We have a car so we've been able to explore some of our area more and visit some people. We had a referral from a grandma in an old missionaries ward back in utah so we gave her a visit. It was super lit and she fed us some food. Then we told her who we are and she totally regretted giving us the food haha. But she was super nice and we were still able to share some good thoughts with her.  Alma 5:12-13 "And according to his faith there was a mighty change wrought in his heart. Behold I say unto you that this is all true. 13 And behold, he preached the word unto your fathers, and a mighty change was also wrought in their hearts, and they humbled themselves and put their trust in the true and living God. And behold, they were faithful until the end; therefore ...

Whats up!? This week absolutely flew by. We had 2 exchanges and had DC in another city 2 and a half hours away so it was kinda wild.  Both of the exchanges were really good and a lot of fun and saw some blessings from them. On the first exchange we did some spikeball finding and so that was a lot of fun. We are actually having a lot more lessons these days and that makes missionary work so much better. Missionary work isn't too fun when there is nobody to teach, so we finally found a few people that are progressing, very slowly but still progressing.  I had an exchange with an elder from Texas and the dude is absolutely hilarious. He never stops talking but it's amazing. We found about four different 16 year old ukrainian girls when we were contacting. I normally wouldnt talk to young people like that so it was impressive. He also starts every contact he has with "jsem z Texasu ale nejsem Cowboy" and then does like a little lasso thing with his hand. Absolutely incred...

Whats up everybody! We had another really good week here. This transfer has been awesome and the area is finally picking up speed. It's been about 5 months and we are finally seeing some good things happen so that's awesome! I got absolutely humbled on Tuesday haha. Right when I thought my czech skills were getting better, I didn't understand like anything. It sounded like everybody was using like crazy slang in every conversation and that it was like a different dialect of czech, I guess it was just Heavenly Father showing me how much he really is helping me with the language. It would be brutal without his help so that was honestly a cool thing to see.  We got yelled at by a lot of people this week, it was like an unnormal amount haha. It's honestly super fun when people yell or try to argue with us. It's way better then them just saying no. We never argue back, but if it makes them feel better than I guess they can do it.  On thursday we had one of the most spiri...

Good Week

Another solid week this week. Honestly nothing too crazy happened. Except that almost our entire branch was out of town so my companion had to conduct and preside at church. And then i had to translate for our Nigerian friend so that was a lot of fun.  Our teaching pool literally just consists of like 3 people from India, 1 guy from ukraine and then 1 guy from Nigeria. We are struggling to find czechs haha, but they will come eventually. We had some good lessons this week actually so that was fun, we planned some spikeball with people, and then did some finding. Nothing too crazy this week.  Alma 32: 16 Therefore, blessed are they who humble themselves without being compelled to be humble; or rather, in other words, blessed is he that believeth in the word of God, and is baptized without stubbornness of heart, yea, without being brought to know the word, or even compelled to know, before they will believe. Me and my comp talked about this verse a little bit this week and it re...
