Teaching the "Plan of Salvation" with sidewalk chalk. Enjoying his 'Subway'.



The Mission is Good!!

This week was really great. I hate sometimes how I say this but, it really was one of the best weeks of my mission. I do probably say that every email. My mind is just so brainwashed to keep this great attitude, I have a bad week, then the next week automatically becomes the best week. But seriously. It was a great week. 3 investigators at church. Basically all progressing. One with a baptismal date for the last week of the transfer May 5th! Things are going great for me and Elder Green. Have some great people with whom we are wonderfully working with willingly without woes and worries, They are prepared for this Gospel. I love it so much and it makes me happy. I hope you are happy too! I love you all! The church is true. Find out for yourself too.

Last week frisbee, was so much fun, but I really hurt my leg and had to take it easy, couldn't play as hard as I would have liked to. It rained the day before, which made it even more fun. Everyone just falling and slipping all over the place. Had some hilarious moments and collisions. Good times. Then singing our lungs out at Piata Unirii. Eating Subway twice a week usually. And usually at least once a week a shaorma. Had a good exchange with Elder Fonnesbeck, met quite a few haters and met with 4 members! Recent converts and less actives. Had burritos for lunch at home if we weren't out and about. Got a baptismal date with an investigator and the Branch President. Eating at member homes. District Meeting is always fun with more people, but without the Wolsey's we aren't as reverant as we should be. Sisters are always so much more mature. Phone calls on down time. Contacting outside of our apartment. Going to the parks. Having some good studies with the new companion Elder Green! Love that kid. And I love church so much every Sunday. Translating for the Wolseys and some other members. I love translating for missionaries. haha Held the Sunday School lesson, the teacher was there, but I think she just wanted to do some delegation. It went well. :) Practiced singing in the the branch choir for this Saturday and Sunday for District Conference. Not sure all who is coming from the 70. I think just one person. But I forget. But that will be good. Can't believe only two more weeks to the transfer! Weeks are flying by! I love it here in Bucuresti. I love Romania in general. Have a good attitude. Be grateful. Smile and laugh no matter what happens. Take care.
