Well everybody! Another awesome week down, and another one coming up!! This last week started off pretty normally, had a great P-Day, got to relax and not think to much...sometimes that´s just great! We then ended up going to a family in the ward for a birthday celebration...they are crazy. So awesome, I love it..reminds me of home a little bit whenever we had a bunch of family around. The place was...bumpin...yup, still remember proper American slang ;) hahahaha but we had a great time and the cake ended up being really quite tasty so it was defnitely worth it. We then had our second Zone Conference for the month. I got to take an ICE for the first time and so I was in a train that reminded me of Harry Potter. It was sick! Ended up talking with some younger kids who were on the National Baseball team. They were pretty cool so the ICE ride went well. We then had to wait a little while before Zone Conference which meant having a party with all of the other missionaries haha. Our new president is going to be great though, he is a really loving guy and you can see just how much he cares about everyone around him. I ended up meeting him in person for the first time as well! The place may not have been what I had originally thought of but heck, no better place than a bathroom to meet somebody right? I thought so too ;) The ride back was great as well...we ended up missing our bus and so we had to wait 2 and a half hours for another one...ends up that the other elders in our area missed their first one (they left early) so the went to the office to get another ticket and ended up missing their second one because they couldn´t find it...XD! We got to have a double decker bus though and so we were pretty much alone up top so we just talked, ate, and then played some games. Good stuff, either way, we ended up finding two more new investigators this week! It´s really awesome because we have really been working hard to achieve our goals and as we have put away our Pride and worked together to make them the Lord has blessed us and we really have been able to call down the powers of Heaven. One of the new investigators is going to be moving to Italy today so that was brutal. He wants to meet with the missionaries there though so they´ll probably end up with 4 more baptisms. Which is sick!! We then ended up having him bring a friend to church and she was just eating it all up. She has two kids as well so maybe we can end up bringing a family to the church so cross your fingers!! We also are getting the hookups from a lady named Ritta. I have talked about her before. She is the owner of the African shop. Well she wants to learn German...and a bunch of her customers and friends want to as well...so we´re starting a German class in the church. Elder Jensen and I like to joke that we´ll end up starting a African Branch over here maybe that will end up coming true. We also ended up doing some service on the Fourth of July, when Germany played their game, I like to pretend all that cheering we heard was just people celebrating the fourth with us. Couldn´t be any other reason behind all of that cheering ;) Afterwards I got to enjoy some tasty meat and potatoes...that stuff was chalked full of Garlic and Onions though....not the best night I´ve ever had bahahahaha well....I slept just fine...Elder Jensen didn´t because he couldn´t breathe. Ah well, he chose the top bunk, that´s his problem ;) We also had a great round of soccer with some of the young single adults on Friday. It´s fun getting together with everyone and just having a good time. It gets way hot though, I don´t drink enough water and I am beginning to regret it. I hope that I can get over the humidity factor over here because I sweat like crazy! I always have to have a paper towel on me so that I don´t drip all over the place. Either way, this week has been great! I hope that all of you had a good time!! I also hear that Karen had her baby!! Good job!...I don´t know what else to say cause I haven´t received a pic yet showing me how cute he is ;) haha either way, It´s time for me to take off! I love you all! You´re in my prayers!
Tschüss!
Elder Lee
