Zdravime vas zPardubic!
Hope everyone is doing great! It's been a really great week here, and one of the busiest weeks of my mission! There's so much going on! So Pardubice is great! It's been pretty warm these past few days, but not really hot. It just got pretty hot today though. It's interesting how it's so close to Hradec Kralove, but it's really quite a different city. It's definitely newer, and a lot more compact, where as Hradec is much more spread out. Another interesting fact, Hradec Kralove and Pardubice are known for having a rivalry. I love both the cities though.

So church was great this Sunday! A lot of
the members recognized me, I was really so excited to see them! It's
really great to be back. I'm definitely here to work though. There were
about 40-45 at church this Sunday. The really cool thing is I got to see this really great member who I helped re-activate here in
Hradec! He taught the Sunday school class, and seems to be doing really
great! I really love him a lot.
So we're teaching this family and they are great! They just love the gospel. They have given us several referrals too, which has really helped us to be a lot busier here! There are the parents, and 6 kids. It's really great to teach them, and I definitely love them a lot. We've really set a focus this transfer of finding young single adults, who can really build up the church here. It's going really well and we already have found a few!
So as Zone Leaders, we have a lot to do. There are 12 missionaries in
our zone, us included. There are 5 zones total in the Czech Republic and
Slovakia. We recently were in Prague to have a Zone Leader meeting to
plan what we would teach our missionaries to help the mission improve.
I'm really excited to serve as a Zone Leader, and I'm definitely
nervous, but so prepared to do everything I can to serve the Lord and
these missionaries as best I can!
Elder Heath and I are doing great. I'm learning so much from him, especially about how to find new investigators. It's great to be back with him, and it's the first time I have served with a missionary from my group from the MTC since I got here. So we're doing great! I've definitely seen some miracles as we've served together, as we go out of our way to find new investigators. It's been such a blessing to me.
It sounds like everyone is doing really good back home. I wish you all the best, and I'm always glad to hear from you! Keep doing the great work you're doing and keep sharing the gospel! Love you all!!!
