How are you all doing? Looks like it
will be an exciting week. What with Jenny's Birthday yesterday,
Peppers and Katie's this week and Mom and Dad being in Utah. I heard
something about a facebook picture war. Sounds like the Griggs are up
to their normal tricks.
Well, it has been a good week. A week
of lots finding. We unfortunately got dogged a lot. And it is really
sad because if only people knew how much the gospel could bless and
change their lives. Seriously. oh the mission presidents wife, Sister
Smith called us Tuesday morning during our studies and asked if she
could come down and work with us and so she came down and spent
several hours streeting and tracting with us. it was fun.
Thinking
of one example with that of how much the gospel can bless people if
they would only accept it, we had a program yesterday with a referral
from an investigator (well we aren't exactly teaching him right now
but he comes to seminary on wednesday evenings, English class, and to
church occasionally) he is the one who in a program about prayer I
thought he said he prayers to a little black lamb but he really said
he was the black sheep of the family...awkward. haha. ok so his
sister. she was at his birthday party that we went to my first week
in Szolnok. And it was an amazing program. We taught the restoration,
we we really teaching in unity and the spiritual was the strongest I
have felt it in a program before and the things she was saying we
were like this gospel is perfect for you! and her son was their too
and it was just great and then she said that she didn't want to meet
again. and it was a little sad but we know that everyone has their
agency. sometime agency is the worst in missionary work but we are so
blessed to have agency so I remind myself of that.
The Herds, the senior couple in
Szolnok, are being transferred to another city in Hungary. We don't
know where they are going. They aren't allowed to say. But the branch
was devastated yesterday and our cute 17 year old investigator V was
in tears as well. It is going to be so different with out them. Plus
I am going to have to start playing the piano in church. speaking of
V though was watched the restoration film with her and she loved it.
she bore the most amazing testimony about Joseph Smith and there
restored gospel it was amazing to here it. i alway think of Mom and
her saying that when she first heard about the Joseph Smith stuff she
was like oh I don't need to believe that. and when you talk about the
restoration to people it sounds very strange but I am so grateful for
the Book of Mormon, which is the convincing evidence that Joseph
Smith was a prophet and that through him God restored his church to
the earth. it was awesome. We talked about how blessed we are to have
a living prophet guiding the church today and gave her a the
conference Liahona, which we just got in Hungarian this week so the
branch members are way excited. and it is so true.
Funny story, we went tracting and
before we went into the building I looked in the window the the
barber shop on the ground flow and guess what was hanging there?! a
pass along card. Sister O and I died.
so i got the ghetto computer today so I
don't think I will be sending pictures home because it is sooo slow.

borrow his coat. so kind. we were carrying a box of book of mormons
and we were so worried about them getting destroyed but it was all
ok.
