Apparently strikes are actual things.

It's true. It happens. People think they can go on strike. What is this? A free country!? Yup. So this week the buses decided to go on strike and made our lives a lot more complicated. At the start. It was funny. I thought it was hilarious. But by the end of the week. It got old. Real old. The struggle is real when you can't take buses everywhere.

This week I got cornbread!!!! It was fantastic!!! One of the senior missionaries gave me two boxes of jiffy cornbread mix! My favorite!!!
So on Tuesday we were finding and as incentive to keep going and. Or give up I told myself that I couldn't make cornbread unless we got a potential. So we were having no success.  But we kept trying and we tried contacting this one man that had been standing in the same place for a long time. Well. It turns out he was deaf. So we were attempting to communicate with him and it was very interesting. When suddenly another man comes up and contacts US and he says he has a question for us, but he ends up just telling us lots of crazy untrue things about our church for about 10 minutes straight. Then his friend walks up.
Who knows no German and only a little English (from Greece) and he says. I want to learn more. I want a meeting. It was CRAZY!!! So we got his number and went home to eat chili and cornbread. We deserved it. So fast forward to Saturday. We were waiting for the Greek potential to show up and it turns out he didn't want to learn about the church. So that was sad.  But we did learn how to say Saturday in Greek. Positives.

We have a new investigator who is Muslim. It's really interesting. She is so cute and fun but we don't know how interested she really is in the church. She started reading the Book of Mormon which is super cool. But she loves the Koran and wants us to read it.... which isn't good because right now she is just comparing the books. But she is super cool and I have faith that the spirit will touch her.

This week we had zone training.  And before zone training we had interviews with President Stoddard. Turns out he was doing them all in GERMAN!! It was scary. But I did it!! He also had me do a role play and he pretended to be someone on the street. It was terrifying but also really good.

So this month our mission is focusing on the Book of Mormon. It's amazing!!! It's such a fantastic tool in our lives to feel the spirit and receive revelation. This week I started to read the Book of Mormon in German before Easter (which takes forever because.... German) but it's amazing!! I challenge you all to try and read the book or Mormon before Easter with me!!! 90 days approximately. LETS GO!! I know that the Book of Mormon truly gives peace and knowledge.

I have you all love!!! PS don't forget my birthday is coming up February 3rd🎂🎈🎊🎉🚂
