Guten Morgen!!
Wow can't believe it is already another week! It was a crazy
week let me tell you. So to start off Monday our district got to go to the
Christmas Market! That was so cool! Have I already said how much I love
Christmas in Germany? anyways we it was cool the One in Osnabrück is really
cool one of the best I have heard.
The next morning I got up super early and headed out to my
new area. Sister Egbert got to stay in Bremen for the week.. or so I thought
and I headed out to Berlin. When we got to Berlin there was a big group of
girls there to pick us up however and come to find out two of them were my
companions... YUP, I am in a Threesome. haha Sister Stuer is my other companion
she is actually from Berlin and is just waiting for her Visa to come before she
goes to Ukraine on her mission. I don't know how long it will be, but can I
just say how awesome it is to have a German Companion..it is really cool.
Anyways then we found out that Sister Egbert would be
staying with us the night before she came to pick up her new trainee. so I got
to see her one more time and that was pretty cool. I did find out on Friday at
MLC that her new companion is a German! So cool.

This week has been crazy busy. It is interesting to me
because we had a ton more investigators in Osnabrück than in Berlin, however
there are so many people here. It is really hard however I know there are
Miracles waiting for us here. Actually it is really cool so we have two
investigators that we want on a baptismal date by the end of this week. One is named Bucky, he is from Ethiopia and
is just here for one year but a stellar Golden investigator. He is a nerd just
like me and we talk about coding and web making all the time.. it is fun,
The other investigator that we have that is just stellar is
Anar. He is from Azerbaijan.. if any of you know where that is haha however
also just total Golden. We actually just had our first lesson with him this
week and he has already agreed to live the Word of Wisdom and he came to church
on Sunday. I am just so excited to be
here and to be working with Sister Blake again and Sister Stuer. They are just
such good missionaries and push me to always want to do better. Berlin is such
a cool city and I love love love serving here. My ward is HUGE.. it is so cool
it is almost like being back home.. plus everyone is American.. haha it is kind
of funny. However Our ward is awesome and they really just care so much about
the missionaries. I am excited to get working with them and really get to know
them! Also about 90% are from DC area.. how cool?
Well family I don't really have any other cool things to
talk about or to say.. We went new missionary finding last week that was fun I
always love seeing the new missionaries and their excitement to Share the
Gospel, they really do just have a great energy and light about them.
I wish you all a wonderful week
Love,
Sister Toma
P.S. by the way we are really promoting this video from the
church called He is the Gift.. I challenge you all to do something this week to
really share this video whether it be through email or through facebook,
instagram, twitter It is a great short clip and I know it will help people
remember the real meaning of Christmas.
