Hey everyone!
So it's been a really good week this week. There wasn't a whole lot going on with everyone being home with their families all week, so we had a lot of things we did as a District. We got a lot done though, it was really cool. We have divided up the whole of the Brno branch amongst the missionaries, so now we're really ready to work effectively.
Saturday, the Zone Leaders had a baptism, so that was really cool to see! The man they baptized had a smoking problem, but finally just gave them up. It was a really cool experience to be there to see that.
So transfers are next Wednesday! They came way too soon this transfer. Hopefully I get to stay in Brno, but I will be happy where ever I go.
With New Years Eve on Saturday we had to be back to our apartments by 6. I could quickly tell why, as shortly after 6 you could hear nothing but the loudest fireworks everywhere. They really go crazy with the fireworks here, and have all the good ones that would never be legal in California. We could have stayed up late, but we didn't because we still had to get up at 6:30 the next day.
We taught a lesson with President Irwin this week though! He is a great teacher. We taught this guy who had known the missionaries and President Irwin, when he was Elder Irwin a year and a half ago. It was a really cool lesson though. With the holidays over, we are going to be teaching a lot more these coming weeks. We already have a few lessons set up for this week. Exciting!
We had a dinner appointment yesterday and Sister Horačkova (the mom) served in the Anaheim California Mission!!!!! That was about 6-7 years ago she said, and she said that she served in Yorba Linda!!!!! I'm not sure which ward though. It was just really cool to hear that.
We did meet a few really cool people while contacting this week though and we're really exciting to meet with them again. This one guy we talked to for a while, and he didn't want to give us his number, he said he would be wasting his time. We kept talking though and we finally found a connection for him to the gospel. It just got to the point where I literally said, "hey, give us your number, we're going to meet with you, and we will answer your questions". He gave us his number. it was just a testimony builder that the gospel really does apply to everyone, we just have to find out which part at first. It's a great week though, It will be a great week again, and I'll be 21 on Saturday!!! Woo!!! I'll be sure to eat some good stuff. Have a great week everyone!!! Love you all!
