Things are going super great!  So... I didn´t realize this until earlier this week, but my birthday is on a Saturday.  We decided we are going to baptized someone on my birthday haha.  We Challenged 5 of our investigators so far to be baptized on that day, and all of them are working towards it.  The only problem is that they don´t come to Church, but, this week 3 of them came!  The Abagiu family from Romania made it to church and they loved it.  They said that they are excited to come back next week =)  That would be the best birthday present ever haha.

    Anyway, this week we worked way super hard throughout the entire week and didn´t really see much success, until Sunday.  On Sunday, we had the Abagius come to Church, and we also met with 3 new investigators, Janna, Laurent and Achmed.  Janna is from Spain, Laurent is from Camaroon and Achmed is from Israel.  They are all way super awesome, Janna is looking for faith, she lost it, Laurent feels lost in Germany because nobody has high standards, and Achmed no longer believes in God. They are all looking for something, and we can totally give them some answers =)

    This week I also got to work with some missionaries that have been having a hard time.  The missionaries are working in Mönchengladbach (That is where my first split was in Germany)  Elder M is going home next week, and Elder W is just a stud of a missionary.  The Goal of the split was to get some people for them to teach, and show Elder W that he can have success in his own town.  I got to work with him, and we taught 2 people on the street, made out 4 other appointments and got 5 numbers from people, it was such a miracle.  We found some super legit people, and I´m excited to see how it goes with them.

    Other than that, things are just going fine!  Thanks for all of your love and support!
