Woche 84: Woche der Versetzung
Montag
Monday,
we went up to Pöstlingberg. It is a Catholic church on the top of a
hill overlooking Linz. And it was so pretty!!! There was snow as well!
It was awesome! And then we eventually went to the Brandstätter's house.
It was a party like usual. Their family is awesome!
Dienstag
My
last District Meeting in Linz!!! It was weird... But, before that
happened, we met with "M"and the Sisters. We watched the Restoration
Video. So good!!! And then we had District Meeting. We talked about the
key indicators. So, essentially, the people are important, not numbers.
These people are God's children! And then we went out to eat with the
District at Vappianos! Haha, Americans, eating Italian food, in Austria!
Mittwoch
Wednesday...
Well, we went to the German course at 10:00 thinking that the Persians
would be there at that time. Well, apparently it was 10.30, so we just
asked the member questions about German. And then they showed up!
Persian to German! But, afterwards we said bye to them! It was so
sad!!! We all hugged and took pictures! Haha, and then we finished our
studies. And then we went dooring around the church. The first lady who
opened up the door let us in and then told us that she had a Book of
Mormon already. She loved the idea of there being more than just the
Bible. She said that it didn't make sense that it would all just end
with the Bible. Miracle!!! And then we had GMK! It was good.
Donnerstag
Thursday
was transfer day! Well, we missed our train... That required patience.. But, we had extra time in Salzburg before I had to leave, so
that was good. So we just got on the next train. There was a ton of
snow on the rolling hills of Upper Austria. So it was really pretty.
But we finally got into Salzburg and I met my new comp! Elder Jensen!
Wooh! Well, we ended up getting on the same exact train we were on.
It was headed to Villach, in my new area. Well, we get on and took the
long journey to my new home!!! It was beautiful!!! Seriously!!! The
mountains were huge and there was so much snow! But then we went through
a giant mountain, and on the other side, it was so sunny and no snow! It was crazy!!! And it took 2 and 1/2 hours on the first train.
And then the next train was 30 minutes... Long way away from Salzburg.
But, then we met the new Senior Couple. The Christensens. They are
super nice and invited us over for dinner. But, we first dropped my
stuff off and then went finding. We had two super conversations with two
different people! IT was amazing! We gave them both a Book of Mormon!
It was amazing!
Freitag
Friday,
we went to the Police Office first, to try to get Elder Jensen an
Austrian Driver's License. No luck... Just more paper work... But, we
later went to the University and doored and talked to a ton of people
down there And then we did Weekly Planning! Made some awesome goals for
the transfer!
Samstag
Saturday,
we finished Weekly Planning and then went to St. Veit an der Glan. We
went first to Maria Saal, but really a tiny street/ village thing called
Sagrad. Well, some random guy gave us a ride from Maria Saal to
Sagrad. He said we could meet up some time as well!!! Weird coincidence,
not! It was awesome! And he saved us a ton of time! But the guy wasn't
home. So we went to St. Veit and doored a little until we needed to
go back. And then we went to the church and ate dinner with some members
and then went on some hike thing. They drove us up to an elevated valley
really close to the border of Slovenia. It was absolutely beautiful! The moon was so bright and there was a giant white mountain next to
us!!!
Sonntag
Sunday,
was church! Wooh! It was awesome! Pres. Mielacher, our stake president,
from Linz, was there today. So that was funny. But it was good. The
members are super nice and awesome! And there are quite a few kids.
