Cheese.

Hello Family!! 
So I began this letter with the title of the thing that affected me the most this week....I´ll just let you imagine as to the why until I get to it ;) So this week has been just as crazy as the last!! I just can´t get enough of this Hastening of the Work. It really is so awesome to see the success we have been having. I think that we are mainly working with a lot of planting as well as harvesting. I am still trying to decide as to which one it is since it changes up on us so often XD Our appointments this week were great though! We ended up getting a lot of inactives back in church this sunday and things are going well with our investigators. This week was a little bit harder that way because oftentimes our investigator appointments would fall out for one reason or another so that was a little bit lame but we always make sure to keep extra busy so I didn´t have much time to think about it. We did have a sick investigator appointment with the guy we played basketball with. He ended up coming to the church on Wednesday to play some ball with us and ended up staying for mutual when we went through drills and all of that with the kids. He ended up doing a lot of teaching as well and he really said he had such a good feeling and that he loved being with all of the kids. We then taught him a lesson after we were finished and he is going to come next week and participate in the Tema we are giving the kids next week. So SICK!!!! We also had some really good basketball with some other investigators so that went well. I ended up getting some pics and printing them off of my paintings. We showed them at one of our appointments and they want to commission me for a couple hahaha and then in that same appointment we had one of the nonmembers there say that she wanted to be baptized!!!! I also got the wonderful opportunity this week to eat some traditional German food. A lot of it was really tasty...some though...was not. I ate a wonderful food called blood sausage. It tasted exactly the way it was defined. I think if I ever want to eat it again I´ll just cut my finger and chew on that for a little bit :P I then got to try the cheese....I figured there literally was only one way to describe it. It tasted like someone farted in my mouth. I took two bites and I just about lost it on the table. I normally have a pretty solid stomach but this cheese worked me on a whole new level. For a second there I thought that the family we were with were playing a joke by feeding us this cheese but Elder Bruneel loved it...he was just pounding the stuff. I guess it must have reminded him of home back on the farm hahahaha Oh, we did have a really awesome night this week! We ended up giving out ten Book of Mormons in the space of an hour! I was feeling way sick cause I had to stuff my face at two appointments but we still went out and did some solid walking and running for that hour haha. There was a strike so for the last couple of days we have had no busses or trains in the city which has been pretty difficult. It made me Golden split with Elder Nilson a party though. Two Guys with no idea where they were, trecking it out in some side stadt trying to find a house among millions. I think I could use that as the beginning credits for some awesome movie...just saying. We then had another split that Elder Nilson and I went on and it just started straight up pouring. So we´re outside trying to get into a members house for a lesson and we are just getting soaked through. It was so funny, Elder Nilson just kept jumping up and down trying to yell over the fence to get them to come out and I was just feeling all of the rain running down my back into my pants...not a comfortable experience but it was totally a blast!!! Gotta love  how the Lord makes things especially fun when you have two newbies walking around XD Well, I have to take off now but I love you all!! It has been so great hearing from you and I am grateful you got the letter!! I always have you in my prayers and I can´t wait to hear from you next week!!
Tschuss!
Elder Lee
