This week started off with a fun pday and an exchange with elder Miller. We were going crazy and found a good amount of people. We had a goal of finding 6 people and we were only at 4 at 8:45pm. We decided to go outside really quickly and we ended up finding a man from Serbia that spoke a little bit of czech and a ukrainian kid with his friends. We were able to used our Ukrainian skills to explain the Book of Mormon and give him one in Ukrainian that we were carrying around with us. It was cool to see our dedication towards a goal pay off.  I had another exchange with elder nelson in Jičín. It was raining all day which was pretty unfortunate, so we decided to go doorknocking and had some good convos with people. Elder nelson is awesome and i learned a lot from him and had a great day.  We ended up going to the hospital for a couple hours on Saturday for some random things and finished off the week strong with some pretty cool miracles. We actually taught a lesson to a Chinese ...

Whats up! I hope you all had an awesome Easter! It's crazy, I didn't realize this last year, but i think everybody in the czech republic celebrates Easter on a Monday. The streets are completely empty today and everybody has all of their Easter whips out if they are on the streets. It's pretty cool.  This week i was genuinely soo exhausted haha. By the time it got to Saturday I woke up feeling like a bus hit me. This week started off pretty normal and me and Elder Rowe started off strong. Then on Wednesday we headed to Brno for in person MLC. Straight from there we went to Pdub and i head an exchange with Elder Lawrence, my comp for 15 weeks when I was in Prague. We had a great time and talked to some cool people that said they have interest. It was a good time.  The rest of the week me and Elder Rowe were going crazy trying to hit some of our goals and we saw some pretty cool miracles come from it. We did some fun service on Saturday for some members and helped them with s...

Whats up everybody! This week was really awesome! It started off with a lot of late nights preparing for ZC and some other things, but it was a lot of fun.  It's been a crazy past couple of weeks. As a mission, we always have a monthly focus. Througout our MLC about a month ago, we counciled about things and decided that the best monthly focus for our mission would be, "Confidence and Christ". We were planning a lot of things, even as we were preparing for a zone conference, we were completely focusing on how to grow in our confidence in Christ. Then as we watched General Conference, President Nelsons talk was titled, "Confidence in the Presence of God". It was such an incredible feeling, knowing that our mission is focusing exactly on what the Prophet feels need to share with us.  Zone Conference went great, all the trainings and thoughts were all focused on growing our confidence through charity and Virtue and how to apply it directly into missionary work. Sup...

Whats up Everybody! This week was pretty solid, first week since the mid transfers. Me and Elder Rowe had the whole week to just grind and get the area going a bit. I definitely saw the Lord helping us in many different ways during the first week together.  I'll start off with our boy named Lukáš! Lukáš is a 17 year old kid and he is soo awesome! We had one of the coolest lesson ever on Friday. We had our new member from my last area in Třebič join the video call with our friend Lukáš. It made me soo happy to see the growth in Honza(the new member) since I taught him a couple months ago. In a span of 4 months, his life has completely changed, and it was made possible through soo many miracles. In our lesson I got to hear his testimony of baptism, and me and Elder Rowe were able to put Lukáš on Bap date for May 3rd! It was soo powerful and a lot more miracles need to happen for him to hit that bap date, so please say some extra prayers for him. A funny part of that lesson was that H...
