dear family,
well not much time this week to write because in the middle of doing emails our plan today just got mixed around. dotn worry i will explain. but long story short, less time to write haha.
this week was good. slow and suckish but good. we had 2 or 3 of our investigators drop us...sad day :( but no biggy. the lord is with us and all will be good. so monday we had some fun with the bergedorf elders at the church and then we had a tuasch. i was with elder linderman in lauenburg and elder G went with von neida to bergedorf. elder linderman and i went to an appointment that night with an innactive and it went well. he explained that he ahs two sides of his constantly tearing himself apart because we wants to do good and he knows the church is true but the other side has al his sins and addictions and such. we tried to explain that thats natural and that well..." the natural man is an enemy to god" its the truth and so we just have to make the decision which side to follow and which not to follow. it made sense in my ehad and i wanted him to enderstand to but he was to emotional to get any points accross. we talked about when we follow chirst and not follow the natural man then after this life we will have relief from this "two sidedness" and he seemed a little better. na ja, we will see what happens. we played phase ten with him for the next two horus...LOL. this man loves phase ten. so funny. tuesday we jsut doored a lot and had our appointment at the end of the day fall out. no biggy. we tausched back and it was a good day. we cleaned the crap out of our car because the next day we were getting inspected. it reminded me of being at home cleaning my car and listening to music. well different music on the mission but still. good stuff. wednesday we woke up at 5 am to drive to bergedorf and pick up the eldes there, then we drove to hamburg for zone sport!!!! so much funplaying hockey at 6 am in the morning. we were about 45 kminutes into it and i was running for the ball and trying to defend against another elder, i got the ball out of the corner i was in and then tried to run in the other dirrection...well to much weight and to fast in one direction and then changing directions that fast...well i fell, and hard LOL. i rolled my ankle and hard to. i felt some popps and heard something. well i was out the rest of the day. so we were in hamburg for a leadership training so that elder G could attend and iw as supposed to work in hamburg with the dlers there. but with my ankle i couldnt walk all around hamburg so i jsut sat outside of the meeting and studied all day. boring but it was good. and actually after the lunch break they had president invited me to also attend the training which was cool. so after the meeting we drove to bergedorf to get crutches from them because of my ankle. and then we had some meetings at the end of the day. thursday i was on crutches the entire day. we had an appointment or two but they all fell out. so we did some doors as well as going by contacts and such. it went well. we met many new people and we met an innactive who is really nice. the one who loves trains. i think i told dad already about that.m it was super sunny and warm that day to. awesome day...except for the crutches. friday we did some service by helping some people move. well i didnt do anything :) elder G did all the work. haha. then we doored and had an appointment with walter. at walters i got a cane from him. score!!!! the crutches in europe are weird and my foot wasnt so bad that i needed them. so i took one of his like 8 canes. he was glad to give it to me. i look more stylish now with a cane. LOL. i also bought an ace bandage for my ankle so with the two its not so bad. we then ahd appointments fall out and one of investigators tschuss us. but no big deal. not letting that get us down! saturday we had our transfer calls!!!
both elder G and i are staying together. but news for the area. we are getting sisters in lüneburg as well as bergedorf. the elders are leavign adn giving the city to sisters. so cool. so we are going from a district of 4 elders to 4 sisters and 2 elders LOL. im super excited for it all. we then did dooring and had a couple appointments that went through. good stuff. sunday we traveled to hamburg for stake conference where a seventy from france came and talked to us as well as president and sister kosak spoke. relaly good talks. we had a good eating appointment and sunday was good.
so the reason i ahve no tiem is because an elder jsut called me telling me elder g and i have to go down to lüneburg at 18:00 today and help furnish the sisters appartment. out of the blue. we have been wondering if they needed our help but they never asked...until the day of LOL. so now we have to end our tiem in hamburg early to get down to lüneburg on time. crazy. good stuff though. we are going to go play hockey in hamburg and hopefully i can go buy a new backpack now. dont worry abnout ym ankle. witht he ace bandage i cn walk without a cane or anythign today. and minimal pain. so i will probably jsut play goaly and sit around. sucks but oh well. dont want to injure it again. keep an eye on the mission blog. when i showed pres my cane he jsut busted up laughing and took a picture of me. he will probably put it on the blog.
