The week of First Lessons

Hello everyone!!!! 

I can't remember what happened this week. It was a weird but good week. We taught TONS of first lessons, which was AWESOME! The restoration is such a wonderful thing! I love to teach about Joseph smith and the first vision!! 

 Oh so cool story of the week. We were contacting at a Bahnhof and we contacted this one man. He first said: I'm Muslim. But we pressed further and asked him if he wanted to learn more about Christ. He replied. Why not? So we had a lesson and felt like we should talk about the plan of salvation instead. Even though the lesson was taught in a little cafe. The spirit was so strong and he agreed to be baptized!!! He kept telling us. "I'm so touched. I wasn't expecting this!" So yes! The plan of salvation is AMAZING!! 

What else happened this week.... oh Valentine's Day. We kept completely forgetting about it!! We were just very very confused when so many people were carrying flowers everywhere. Then that night we went on a split with the other Köln sisters because they accidentally overbooked appointments. I got to teach with sister Clifford and she is an AMAZING teacher ! She was a wonderful example of asking inspired questions. 

Oh for pday last week we just walked around Köln with a member in the ward and she told us random stories and i got to go to the Dom (cathedral) that is super famous here! We didn't go in it but we will in a couple weeks. Im super excited to. It is SO beautiful. Pictures will be included. 

Not too much else to report on. But wait. I hit my six month mark tomorrow!!!! Ahhhhh !!!! I'm already a third of the way done with my mission!!! 
Oh we had zone conference this week!! I got to see some missionaries I haven't seen in awhile and it was sooo good! It was so fun to catch up and learn how they are doing. But it took us literally all day to get there and be there and get back. 

Not sure what else to say. I'm excited to keep working and the weather has been improving!!! I really hope it stays that way!! Today we went to Wuppertal and played soccer with the elders there and in Solingen. It was fun, but man am I BAD at soccer. I accidentally tripped one of the elders and then I tripped myself. But it was fun and cool to see a different part of Germany!! Oh yeah!!! They have ubahns that hang from tracks in the air instead of on the ground!!! It was so cool! They are CALLED schweberbahn (I don't know how to spell it sorry) 

Love you all!! 


Oh yeah!!!! Shout out to my parents!!! They just had an anniversary on the 11th!!!
