Wow I can't believe that it is
a new week. Crazy. It was great hearing from everyone this week.
There was some pretty cool things that happened this week I
can't wait to give you the run down.
Well to start off we had
another lesson with Nathalie and Massimilliano... They are two interesting
ducks... Cool but interesting. I hope that we can continue to teach them... She
is one crazy busy lady... now that we found out how rich and Famous she actually
is. You wouldn't even believe me if I told you... Anyways it was cool this time
we ate lentil soup out of coconuts. I also get the experience of a missionary
in South America too here... just kidding...
We then taught one of our less
actives this week Sister Rinke... she is a hoot... This time her 81 year old
husband who is totally blind and CRAZY... ran away from home... again...
anyways she gave us the lesson this time about having faith and putting on the
armor of God... Funny Funny day.
Bucky our new member got the
priesthood today! It was so cool! He is the 1st of all the people I have taught
to get the priesthood! Next week Anar is up... and with that he will be
baptizing his MOM! Olga is getting baptized next Sunday... we are so excited!
Just pray for her that she will have to continual comfort that she is doing the
right thing. She goes home in two weeks and she will be one of the only members
of the church in her Entire country.
Missions are just amazing. We
are stretched to our limits on a mission... Something sister Wiborny always
tells me is that when we feel comfortable that is when we are not growing. Well
on a mission I don't think I ever feel comfortable. At least I hope if I do
start feeling comfortable that I snap out of it and start working harder or
something.
It has been amazing working
with Sister Wiborny. We have just seen so many miracles here... one of them
being the people we find and the growth we are seeing in the people we teach.
Berlin is very interesting... we can find find find but it doesn't mean we keep...
We can get 100 peoples phone numbers in one week but none of them will meet
with us. However this week and the weeks past I have really come to know that
God always preparers the people... and they mostly come in the most unexpected
ways. Part of the mission life... I love it though it always keeps you on your
feet...
I have been reading the story
about Abinadi this week... What a cool Prophet. He was a true example to me of
a diligent missionary... He personally didn't see any success in his efforts...
however through is diligence he was able to bring thousands unto Christ!
The challenge is for us is to
overcome our fear... share our testimonies about what we believe... even if we
don't see an imitate effect, we never know the impact that we had on that
person...
I love you all and Hope you
have a great week!
Liebe Grüße,
Sister Toma
