6 month mark!

Servus!!!

How are you all?? I hope that everything is going well. This week I hit my 6 month mark on my mission. I feel so thankful to have had this opportunity in my life.

This week went pretty well. We now have two new friends of the church to work with!! They are both from the Dominican Republic. Luckily, we have the amazing tool of Facebook, so with any luck, in the future, our discussions will be in a mix of German and Spanish! It should be awesome.

More news, we had another Deutsch class this week, though this time with a couple people from Iran as well. It is a great opportunity to get to know some of the members better and we can all learn better German together!

As for church news, we now have a new President of the church, President Nelsen. No matter what happens on this earth, the truth will never be stopped. I am so glad to be able to help others to learn more about it.

Spiritual thought :   Alma 48:16-17

and this was the faith of Moroni, and his heart did glory in it; not in the shedding of blood but in doing good, in preserving his people, yea, in keeping the commandments of God, yea, and resisting iniquity.
17 Yea, verily, verily I say unto you, if all men had been, and were, and ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have been shaken forever; yea, the devil would never have power over the hearts of the children of men.

Now is the time to be men (and women) like Moroni. I really find strength from these scriptures, because even Moroni wasn't perfect. Just like us. Only Jesus Christ was perfect on this earth, but we can all become spiritual giants. All we need to do is our best. That is all that Heavenly Father asks of us. And when we do our best, as Moroni, the very powers of Hell will shake and lose their hold on us!

I love you all! Bis später!
