привіт! як справи?

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 man who only speaks Chinese and a bit of czech. We had a member from Taiwan join and that was a cool experience. We gave him a Chinese Book of Mormon as well. 
This area is soo interesting because every week we find a lot of people, and all of them just completely fall off. We are still working hard and trying to find people that are ready to hear our message. We are still teaching Natalie and Lukáš, they are 2 of my favorite people in the world. They just need some time. Still progressing super well and I have no doubt that they will get baptised sometime soon. 
Alma 53 "20 And they were all young men, and they were exceedingly valiant for courage, and also for strength and activity; but behold, this was not all—they were men who were true at all times in whatsoever thing they were entrusted. 21 Yea, they were men of truth and soberness, for they had been taught to keep the commandments of God and to walk uprightly before him"
For the Month of May, our mission has a monthly focus for "Army of Helaman". I actually read these verses this week. The line, "were true at all times in whatsoever thing they were entrusted" stood out to me quite a bit. These strippling warriors were young, but they had great integrity. They were true at all times. I think that is the goal that we all have is to be true at all times and to not cut corners. True blessings come from that as we see a couple chapters later. They were exactly obedient in the orders they were given and Miracles were rained upon them. 
I hope you all have a good week! I didn't take any pictures this week, im sorry. But send me an email! до побачення

Dang this was such a normal week, but I'll try to make this interesting. Monday we had a district p day which was awesome. I used to have those every week in Prague, I definitely miss those days haha. But we went to one of the prettiest places in the country, it was literally a fairy tale land. But it was an awesome day and gave us some energy for the long week we had. We ended that day with some street contacting, picking up elder Rowes wallet from the train station cause he lost it, and then killing around 15 spiders that have been lurking in our church building for probably the past 5 years.  Tuesday was a completely normal day, we visited an inactive member and she said she's definitely not going to come back to church. Kinda unfortunate.  Wednesday was the first day of my mission that I have ever gone door to door contacting. It was actually a lot of fun but dang nobody wanted to talk with us. We might try it again soon and see if people's hearts change. This was a hol...

This is actually going to be such a short email cause I don't feel really good, but this week was so awesome. Pretty much the first half of the week was pretty great, normal missionary work. We were able to teach a couple lessons and talk with lots of people. Good stuff. Thursday we went to the other elders area and I ran an exchange with my old comp from Prague elder Lawrence. That was a good time and good to be back together. The exchange was pretty great. That next day I had my last VISA appointment in Prague and now I have my visa which is good. Elder Hinckley still has 2 more so we will be going back again very soon. Pretty bad timing but its alr.  The best part of the week was that i was able to return to CBUD for a baptism of one of our friends that I was able to teach before i left. She is so amazing, already has the strongest testimony! She has some family members in the church so she has been reading the Book of mormon a little bit over the past couple years. One day she ...

Week 88 Or Something As A Missionary

Image
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...
