So..... We stole some bikes. Kind of?

Hey everyone! Hope you are all doing well out there in the world!

It has been a great two weeks for us, and we have been working like crazy! Highlight of last week was an awesome service project. Us and two Elders from Wien put on our farming pants and headed into the country side of Austria. A few minutes later, we discover that three of the four of us have hay fever. Oops. Ah well. We rolled giant barrels of hay in a farmer's barn for a few hours and after they gave us home made pizza and baked goods. It was delicious. Sadly afterwards, we could barely stand, but it was still awesome!

Other exciting things going on, we have a two new investigators! It is amazing to see the hand of the Lord in this work. We even found Christian through knocking on doors, which I'm really excited about. Most of our time is spent talking to people in the street or on trains and busses, so finding someone in an apartment was a really cool experience! 

As for the subject, we may or may not have accidentally stolen some bikes. Oops again. But good news is we gave them back. We are supposed to have bikes in this area, but did not know where they are (they had a car last transfer but we gave it to a senior couple). So we were searching for our bikes and found two that looked like missionary bikes. It had two locks on it and our key worked for one, but not the other. Assuming missionaries had lost the other key we cut the other lock. Then a very upset old lady and a man saw us and came out yelling. Sadly the bikes were there's. Good news is we were able to talk our way out of it and our branch President was able to round up two temporary bikes to use while we wait for new ones. Lol. 

Anyways, that's what's been going on around here lately! Just working hard and giving our absolute best😊 Hope your all having a good week and a good 4th of July!

Scripture of the Week:

Moroni 9:6

"And now, my beloved son, notwithstanding their hardness, let us labor diligently; for if we should cease to labor, we should be brought under condemnation; for we have a labor to perform whilst in this tabernacle of clay, that we may conquer the enemy of all righteousness, and rest our souls in the kingdom of God."

The moment my mission became meaningful was when I decided to do everything I possibly could.  100% And when we give all we can, and we do our best with the Lord on our side, mountains will be moved and seas will part. 

Love you all! Elder Wiser
