Inactive Elders

Hey guys!

Sorry, I dont have a bunch of time today so Im going to keep it short. Not much new has happened this week though we did have some fun experiences.

A crazy thing happened on Sunday. We didnt get to go to church. Thats three weeks in a row! Crazy! It has really made me realize how much I need church and the difference it makes in my life. The last two weeks have been crazy stake conferences in crazy places. This Sunday there was a huge wind storm. We talked to President and he had us stay in the apartment because it was supposed to get super super bad. So we were stuck in our apartment all day. The storm did cause a couple roads to get shut down and lots of the village Haag am Hausruck lost power. But everything calmed down eventually and it wasnt a bad day after that.

Other highlights of the week include a district finding day in Linz yesterday. It was way fun. Linz is I believe the second biggest city in Austria. Im not a 100 percent though so dont quote me on it haha. They do have a giant street that is awesome for finding. It is filled with hundreds of people and is so cool. It is lined by shops and goes a long way. Way cool to see.

Unfortunately I dont have any new pictures for this week. So Ill share a scripture instead!

12 And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storms shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall. 

Remember to build your rock on the foundation of Christ! I promise that he will not let you down. No matter what happens, if you hold onto Christ as a center point of your life, it will all work out in the end. I dont know how or when, but it will! I love you guys and hope you all have an amazing week!

Mission Conference!!!!

Hey guys!!

It was another amazing week this week! One of my favorite in the field so far! We had a mission conference with every missionary in the mission! And Elder Ballard was there! It was so amazing! It was also amazing to see my MTC group! They are all so awesome and Im sooo glad to be friends with them. I really hope I will get the chance to serve with some of them! I also got to see Elder Parker! It was so cool. Me and Sister Lex and Elder Parker are all cousins on the Lex side of our family and it is amazing that we get to serve together.

Other exciting news this week, we had a baptism in Wells. The sisters, Sister Lex and Sister Fisk are killing it over there and doing an amazing job. The baptism was awesome, our whole district had the opportunity to go and see it.

That pretty much sums up the highlights of this week. We got to do a service project dumping a lot of dirt from a bunch of pots and also to rake up leaves! It was lots of fun. We also missed a train coming back from Wells one night after Elder Richardson had the baptism interview. The next train came in 1 hour 40 minutes and we didn't end up getting home till 11 and asleep at 12. That was as crazy night. Making it a goal not to miss any more trains ha ha since the next morning we woke up at 4:30 AM to head to Munich. Crazy!

Anyways, I love ya guys and I hope you have an amazing week! I love hearing from you all!

Facebook!!!!!!!

Hey everyone!!!

Not a whole bunch has happened this week so Ill keep it pretty short. The highlight of the week was getting Facebook this week! We are super excited to be able to use Facebook in our Missionary efforts!!!

There was also a Stake Conference this week was really awesome. Unfortunately me and Elder Richardson thought the Saturday night part was in a different city then it was and so we spent 5 hours wondering around because we could not get back to where it really was. We had a three day long tausch in Linz because of it which was really fun. There was also a Europe wide conference with Elder Ballard that was really awesome. Im so glad to have Prophets and Apostles to guide the church in our days!

I also got a new suit which I was excited about! Also, on Friday, we are having a mission conference with Elder Ballard. Im so pumped to hear from him and what he has to say!! It's going to be amazing.

I love you guys and hope that you have an amazing week!!

Dinner

Danke schön Schaz!

​​This week has been a good week. Unfortunately I had to say goodbye to Elder Mendenhall as he was unable to receive an Austrian visa. So on wensday he left for Germany.  I have have a new companion. He is awesome too. His name is Elder Richerdson. He is from Washington. His last area was in Switzerland and before that he was in Wien. I think we will have a lot of fun together!

Not a whole bunch exciting has happened this week and I am short on time so I will give the highlights and some photos! We went to Amdorf for our first day of finding together. It was for about 4 hours and we found 3 potentials! A new record for one day for me in the Haag area! We are so excited to hopefully have new investigators soon! We did a service project one morning in Wels fixing up a mini golf park and that was lots of fun. Then later that day we did a service project collecting fruit for a few hours. My calfs and legs were very sore the next day haha. Today for P day we went to Königssee! It was really pretty and lots of fun!

I hope you guys have an amazing week! Remember that the Lord loves and cares for each of you individually! We are his children and he loves us. I know this to be true. Hold on to your faith and you will find it strengthened.

Love you guys!

Grüß Euch!!

Sorry I dont have a whole bunch of time this week!! The weeks are always super packed, though I can never remember everything that happened by the end. The highlight this week was totally General Conference!! It was really amazing and had so many good talks. It seemed to take on a whole new meaning watching as a missionary and I hope that you all had the chance to see it. If not I encourage you to go and do so!! Totally worth it. 

In news of what has happened lately, we did have to drop and Investigator Barbod. We hope that he will talk to missionaries again one day. We also did a service project for Günter. We moved a lot of stuff from the upstairs to the basement or trashed it so that painters can paint everything. We had to destroy a giant desk to get it down and trash it and an ax may or may not have been employed for the job, though most was just smashed.

I also got to see Sjian this week which was way awesome!!

Im also going to be getting a new companion tomorrow at transfers. His name is Elder Richerdson and Ill have pictures next week. Elder Mendenhall has to go back to Germany because of Visa problems. 

Im sorry if I didnt get to email you back this week! I will definitely get you soon and I love hearing from you guys!!

Have an amazing week and continue in faith!!

Love yall!!
