Co pak!
Hi Family!!!
It's been quite a week of blessings. So it was just a normal week...most of the week. Just working with our investigators and members. We did visit a few members which was really good. I always enjoy visiting our members here! We visited this one member from the Ukraine who lives here. He speaks Czech which he has picked up working here (hasn't studied it), so it's hard to understand each other at times, but it's great! He's a really cool member!
We had a really amazing miracle this week though! So I got a call Tuesday morning or something from one of the senior missionaries in Prague. Sister Curtis was telling me she had another referral for Elder Ozmun and I. There was a guy who had ordered a free Book of Mormon through the mail and we were supposed to call and see if he got it. I meant to call him, but forgot for 2 or 3 days, but finally got around to it. I think I was meant to forget, because when the man answered he said he had gotten it the day before (I would have called before then), and asked when we could meet to talk about it!!! So that doesn't happen too much around here. But we set up a meeting for Saturday, and what then happened was that I was part of one of the best lessons of my mission so far! This man is about 37 and he came and said he is looking to change his life. He committed himself to attend church and told us he has other books he wants to read, but the Book of Mormon is really important for him to read now. It is really a blessing that he was led to us, and he has so much interest and desire and real intent. He came to church and could only stay 2 of the 3 hours, but when I asked him how he felt, he said - nadherny, basically, really awesome!!! So he is just such a great guy and we're really looking forward to meeting with him more and helping him progress. Such a blessing!
Our other investigator is doing good too! He is still preparing for baptism, so we're working hard with him to help him progress as best as we can! Finally got a picture with him, but I forgot my camera cord, next week.

So we are headed to Prague this Sunday for our conference with Elder Christofferson, which should be really good! I'm really looking forward to it! We will be having a missionary only conference after the district conference, so it should just be great!
Transfers are next Wednesday, so you won't hear from me until then. Hopefully I will stay in Brno, there's just so much going on! I'll be fine wherever I go though. I hope Elder Ozmun is well prepared for the next transfer though, and that I taught him all the secrets to missionary work right. Have a great week everyone! I love you all and appreciate you so much!

So a few questions I was asked:
-Favorite place to visit in Brno, I really like to go to Luzanky (Lužanky) park, and Spilberk (Špilberk) castle to contact people, just a lot more relaxed and people aren't rushing and are more willing to listen. Plus they are way cool places!
-Favorite food, it's got to be svitckova (švičkova) and dessert, ovocne knedliky (fruit dumpling things)
-Weather, it's getting a lot hotter right now, and it's nice!
