Hallo zusammen!
We are off to go hiking this week!
Hopefully it will stop raining soon, but we are determined to go, rain or
shine.
This week has been pretty good. We
have been able to see some good progress with our investigators, but we also
see them experience some really difficult things.
H, one of our investigators, quit
smoking this week. To help her keep busy, we baked together on Thursday :) She
is making progress but is going through a really stressful legal proceeding
right now, so please keep her in your prayers.
We also met this week with one of
the potential investigators we found on finding day! His name is Y and he is a
student from China. We gave him a Book of Mormon in Chinese and explained about
how God is our Heavenly Father and he always sends us prophets to help us find
the way. The best part of that lesson was when he said, "So prophets are
God's representatives" Yes, he got it! We committed him to start reading
the Book of Mormon and next time we will meet at the church and give him a tour
of the building.
We also have another investigator,
K, who is doing pretty well. He has come to a lot of JAE
(Jungalleinstehende
Erwachsene - Young Single Adults) activities and we had another appointment
with him last night. Since he lives in the 1st ward, the Elders helped to teach
him about the Plan of Salvation. We committed him to pray about it.
In my gospel study I have been
reading the New Testament and I just reached the end of Matthew. I am always
impressed by the Savior's words in the Garden of Gethsemane: “not my will but
thine be done.” My wish is to strive to develop that same humility and trust in
the Lord, where I can get to the point where I put aside my own will and
completely devote myself to doing the Lord's will.
Tschüss! (Bye-Bye)
