Week 52 -- World With No Change




Sorry it's quick but better than nothing. This week I talked to a lady in the U-bahn. It's always interesting contacting. Not knowing who they are or what they have been through or where they are at in life, but knowing what you have can help them. No matter who they are. You just have to fit it to them. Anyway this lady told me she doesn't believe change is possible. That was the point of it i think with the stabs of what i am doing is stupid cuz its the impossible. I came out of this conversation thinking about a world with no change. And thinking about my life and where I would be without change. I thought about what makes it possible to be better. And I instantly thought of Christ and his atonement. Because of him we always have a second change. Not just a second, but a third and forth. How ever many we need as long as everyday we try. It's not just learning about Christ and know what he did and studying it. But actually becoming more like him everyday. It's about becoming that. We all know of him and the stories about him but what are we doing to actually become more like him everyday? Anyway just something to think about. 
Thanks for all the prayers.
Here's some pics for all the things I don't talk about😂

Week 50 -- Transfered to Dortmund



Holy. So much has happened. My mom asked me to write a group for her birthday so this ones for you mom.

When I was with cute sister Christensen in Kaiserslautern we met the coolest kid. His name is Maurice. He's a 17 year old German. Right before I left we invited him to be baptized. Let me tell you about this kid tho. Contacted him on the street, gave him the book and a card. He ended up started it and texted us and said he already read 17 chapters of this book. Met with him and told him all about the book. The book that changed so many people's lives. He loved it so much that at the end he asked us if he could serve a mission when he becomes a member. Next time we met with him he printed our Preach my gospel and read the first 5 chapters....So yeah that's Maurice. When we invited him to be baptized he was nervous and kind of said no. So then I was like okay let's get on our knees and pray right here, right now. He said the cutest prayer and the holy ghost was so strong. He felt it too. Right at the end he ended and said "amen. Yes." In that moment he knew. Those are literally the moments I came out here for. Bummed I don't get to see his baptism and our other cute Diana. They are in good hands tho.

My new comp is sister Misiego. She was born in Spain but grew up here. So she's got the whole straight up right to the point German personality going. I love her lots.
