A Week of Miracles

Image
1) Tuesday we went finding.  We were having no luck.  After two hours we said a prayer and asked Heavenly Father if he would help us find someone we could share the gospel with. Not long after we said the prayer, we met a woman and were able to give her the whole first discussion and we were able to pass out some contact cards. 2)Wednesday, we had a district council.  We had a really great meeting and afterward we had a potluck.  Each of us brought something to share.  We brought a roast.   3) Thursday we had a zone conference.  It was epic.  We talked about flooding the mission with the gospel and the importance of the Book of Mormon.  At the conference, each set of missionaries was given boxes of the Boof of Mormon. We have a goal as a mission to pass out 2,000 Books of Mormons by the end of our 40-day challenge.  Afterward, we had a BBQ.  The food was so good.  We had Schwein steaks and brats, bread, brownies, and a few other things.  On our way home, we missed our train.  So instea

Week 50 Pressing Forward in Braunschweig

Image
Hello from Braunschweig.  Here are this week's highlights!   1) Said goodbye to Elder Liddiard.  He is transferring to Berlin. 2) I got a new companion Elder Hugg.  He is from New Braunfels, Texas.  He is the district leader and I am his assistant. 3) We worked really hard this week and we were able to add 5 new friends to our teaching pool. 4) We had a funny experience one afternoon when we met this neo-nazi.  We had a good talk with him about the church.  Later when we were on the way home, we saw a ton of police action.  Apparently, the neo-nazi group was in a bit of a scuffle with some Antifa people. 5) We were able to do some service work for an older couple in our ward helping them move some furniture.  They rewarded us with Doner for dinner. Have a great week!  Love, Winston
