Naturally Awesome

Hello Family!

This week was pretty awesome, I was on that split with the Elder that just barely got to Germany right? We just went crazy contacting like everyone we saw, we had some good conversations, but everything always ended with people saying they are Catholic and they don´t need to do anything else in their life to be happy... Which isn´t so cool, because, it´s wrong, but, we had a way good feeling about doing some doors in a place we call Shönest Nachbarshaft which means The most beautiful neighborhood, so at like 7 in the evening we headed over there. Like nobody wanted to talk to us, but, we both knew that there was a reason we were there, so, we kept doing doors. It was getting way late and most of the lights in peoples houses were off and we weren´t really sure where to go, but we saw this one house with the lights still on, so we rang the doorbell. The guy was way super interested and we ended up teaching him all about the Book of Mormon and Joseph Smith and he invited us to come back. It was an awesome way to end the day and showed how God blesses us through Diligence!

Other than that little experience there wasn´t really much that happened.... We got to watch General Conference, we didn´t get to see the last session though because it wouldn´t start until midnight here, so I´ll have to read it later. That is naturally awesome haha. We got one of our Investigators to come and watch, she really enjoyed it, and then right after she said she liked it, she talked about Elder Bednar´s talk and said she´s pretty sure her testimony is going to come like the Sunrise, we´ll just have to try and help her Sunrise come a little faster haha.

This week I also gave myself a haircut for the first time EVER! I took some picture to show it off because I am quite proud actually. My companion did his own and he missed some spots and the hair on the back of his neck slopes hardcore because his hand twitched or something weird like that. I don´t really know how I am going to send the pictures, but, I have quite a few and I will send them eventually haha.

Anyway, I´m happy to be in Germany, and I am seeing blessings from the Lord all around me. It´s crazy to believe I have already been out for 4 months, which is like 1/6 of my mission already gone, I feel like I just got here haha. The Church is true!
