Woche 29: Silvesters
So this week was quite similar. We went out finding a lot since
our investigators didn't have time because of the holidays. But we had
some great conversations. This week helped me realize the importance
of this message we are bringing into the world. Everyone needs it. Literally. It doesn't matter if you are Christian or not. We have
at least one thing in common, we are all God's children. And He
loves us all equally. That is why He sent His son for
everyone. That is why He restored His church. That is why we have
this wonderful message. To help people look towards God and receive
much more happiness than we can imagine.
What did you do for NYE? We went to a party at the church. They sang songs in Schwäbisch and
perhaps Badisch. And then we watched fireworks outside of our window at home. Guess what!!! I
found
some
more
people
in
our
Family
History.
Look
at
Family
Search
and
at
David Hagel. I
found
the
parents
and
then
it
went
back
like
5
more
generations
because
of
someone
else.
On
New
Years
Day
no
one
was
on
the
street
so
we
did Family
History.
But
I
was
trying
to
legitimize
our
Family
History
because
there
is
incorrect
information
in
certain
places
and
then
I
found
them!
And
I
found
where
this
Glückstal
place
is.
It
is
in Moldova! It
is
in between
Ukraine
and
Romania.
It
used
to
belong
to
Russia
so
that
is
why
everything
says
Russia.
And
there
is
also
a cemetery
in
North
Dakota
with
their graves.
Transfers are coming up, do you think you'll stay or go? Do you feel ready for a change yet? You are such a great example, I know you will stay or go wherever the Lord sends you! They
usually
keep
missionaries
in
an
area
for
6
months.
But,
I
feel
ready
to
transfer.
I
would
miss
Schwenningen
a
bunch
though.
So
I
wouldn't
mind
staying
here.
Actually,
I
would
love it. And thanks!
It
is
easier
when to be a good example when
you
have
great parents!
This past week I have also studied a lot on goals. I read a talk
called the Fourth Missionary. And the Fourth Missionary is
essentially obedient, loving and charitable, and has the will of God
in place of his. Or in other words, His will is to do the Lord's
work. It is not always easy, but he has the desire. It then proceeds
to continually ask this question... Who are you and who will you
become? Meaning, when everything temporal is taken away, who are
you? What qualities will we have? What will it be like to stand next
to us and then where do we want to go with this?
Sorry this week was so short. We just really didn't do a huge
variety of stuff.
Ich habe euch lieb!
