Liebe Familie!
wow crazy week!! well to be honest it kind of sucked missionary work wise but good mentally i suppose LOL. we had fun this week but a lot happened. well not a lot happened and so tahts why the week sucked. we had 6 appointments fall out this week so we were really down on appointments and lessons but for other things it was fun. with the new ZL ,elder clayton, the appartment is way fun and we are a bit more obedient lol.
ok for notes from this week. i got the package!!!! the cds are so cool. elder popp is more excited about the manheim steamroller christmas cd than i am LOL. his dad played it every christmas morning when they opened presents. your questionaire in the package was a brilliant idea, i answered them and sent it back on thursday so idk how long it takes letters to get home, but i sent it. the new pair of socks was cool. its funny i was wishing i ahd a new pair that were a bit longer and there they were. little blessing like that are just awesome.
Oh so yesterday at churhc we had branch leadership meeting. they were discussing the christmas party and who would be santa clause. they are going to ask this one member but he has said no the first time, they will try again but they need a back up santa...so at this time im out of the room and the branch pres, pres munzer, suggests me as the santa. elder popp and fuller just bust up laughing and think its a great idea. i walk in and sit down and everyone is smiling at me. pres munzer asks if i would be the santa clause, i said yes, problem is i have absolutely no clue what santa says in german, i cant even say merry christmas in german. my vocabulary is not built for this!!!! lol. i will have a lot of studying to do. i dont even know who satan is in german. he has a different name. i get to take pics with all the primary kids and everything. lol!!! should be fun but way stressful. i dont want to emarass myself and i dont want to ruin it for the kids. they go up and have a santa who cant speak freakin german. what the heck. im excited though. elder popp and fuller think its the best idea ever. oi have been slowly...very slowly loosing weight, and so i joked i need to start gaining to fit my costume in a couple weeks. but no i wont do that. but it should be interesting. loads of pictures for that.
today we are shopping a ton and then soccer tonight with investigators. we go to this indoor soccer place with like 10 indoor soccer fields. so sweet!!!! i love it.we have 2 investogators coming, simon and his family, so technically more non members and then the elder from leer are coming and staying the night tonight so they can get to hamburg tomorrow with us at the same time. and we are closer so they dont ahve to wake up as early.
alright spiritual thought of the week. 2 nephi 25:23-25. i reall like the last sentence of verse 23. we are saved through grace only after ALL we can do. also mosiah 4: 25 i think. dont run faster than you ahve strength but constantly sertve others. way cool.
ok out of time for now. we just got a clal that pres munzer got in a car wreck and he wants a blessing. he went to the hospital and all is ok according to the x-rays, but we shall see. aparently his car is totalled. sucks.
ok love you guys laods. until next week.
