Sorry don't have tons of time this week. But I had a cool experience last week. This lady was staring down our nametags so I just said "kennen Sie diese Kirche" anyways we got talking and she actually just lost her husband to cancer. We were just teaching here a tiny bit of the plan of salvation and that we know she will see him again. We talked for like 15 minutes with her about all of it. Then at the end I just tried one more time. I just testified of the book of Mormon and that I have no idea what she's going through but that I know the power in the BOM and that it can help her. The spirit was so so strong and then she just said nah and got off. Lol. I guess it just shows like in 2 Nephi 33 you you can speak with the holy ghost but it will only he carried unto their hearts. It's up to them to let it in or not.
way cool experience with this inactive family. they have been not coming for at least a year now. And I just had a question come into my mind when we were teaching them and so I tried in my little baby German to ask them like what got them into the church. Like what is the one thing their testimony is strong on. And she said that he's always there for us. Then she started crying and said I just realized that he was there for us through all the hard times. And like we just told them to build on what they have. She said that she use to have a testimony but it just went away and that's why they don't come because they lost their testimonies so how do they build on them? All the missionaries have told them to but they don't know how. we just invited them to start praying and reading again and to do the simple things. It's so so important for us to do the little things or it's easy just to forget and lost our testimonies.
We also have met like 6 Spanish people this week. I guess I should have listened better in Spanish class so I can actually communicate with them. But thankfully we have a couple in our ward that can speak Spanish. We are going to have them call all of them and try to set up appointments. We also are going to be singing in Spanish this weekend for a baptism. Pray for us hahah.
Here's a cute German girl Mia. She was like you don't speak German? Hahaha but the next time I saw her she said it was better. So I guess I am improving a little bit.
Thank you for the emails. Hope you all have a good week!
