Utterly Exhausted

It's almost Easter!!! I'm so excited for this holiday!!! One reason I love holidays so much is because it gives us missionaries great tools to use in contacting and teaching. The new Easter initiative is really cool and i love how the holidays help people remember what is the most important thing. Christ!!

This week. As the title states. Was a week of exhaustion. I don't know why. But I have been so tired lately. Yes I know that as a missionary you are normally always tired. But I was unusually tired this week. I have proof as well. So normally I pray in the study room and sister Clifford Prays in our bedroom at night. Well Sunday night I was praying and the next thing I knew I was waking up. I had fallen asleep praying for almost two hours!!! My back and shoulders hurt so bad from sleeping like that. That was when I knew I was so tired. Because normally I can NOT sleep anywhere except in my bed. But it was really funny.

The coolest thing happened last week. A couple from America contacted the mission because the lady (Andra) had a pen pal from Germany named Moni. Andra is LDS and had been making a blog that Moni happened to stumble upon years ago. Well. Moni unexpectedly passed away in January. She was only 27 years old. So Andra wanted to come and meet Moni's parents and talk to them. But A. They needed translation. And B. Andra wanted to share the gospel and maybe try and do Moni's temple work. So we met up with them in a cute restaurant in Bergisch Gladbach. It was AWESOME!!! Andra shared her testimony of the Plan of Salvation  and everyone simply bonded over Moni and her life. The spirit that was there was so beautiful and I'm so grateful I got to be a part of it. It's also super awesome because now Moni's parents are letting us come over to meet with them again next week. I'm so excited. :)


This has been a good week. Kind of long but good. We had zone training and I had to do something in front of everyone in German. But it wasn't too bad! Oh and sister Clifford had her birthday!!! So that was an adventure. On Saturday are transfer calls. But nothing should be happening since sister Clifford goes home next transfer. I hope everyone has an awesome Easter. I love you all!!!
