Some Hard Times And Some Easy Times

Hallo meine freunden, its been 5 weeks and its been like 1. There have been some hard times and some easy times. But all of it is wonderful. I wrote a talk i hope i can give some time, i called it "Drums, Trains, and leprosy". It's heating up fast, those week we are supposed to hit 65. We had 5 of the 6 people we where hoping to come to church came and that was great. We had some good lessons, i had a hard week but its ok because my soul delights in the work of mt eternal father.  I've learned a lot out here, like you can't have pasta every day or that its hard to live off of oatmeal for a week ( my MSF didn't refill for 3 days after it was supposed to so i only had oatmeal) But i love it. We have a new person on date and a family of 4 getting ready for it. I have been jammin' out on my ukulele this week, or every week. And i got a hymn book to play out of. I practice my drumming on literally everything i can, pillows, desks, counters, stools, and even car head rests. My companions think its sick so they have no idea what they got them selves into. We still have some snow in the shady areas. We had some exchanges with the spanish elders so we got elder campusano. After district counsel we got pizza as a group. I love this gospel, i love the german language that i practice with every day, the book of mormon has so much knowledge inside of it. Those who have not read the truth of the book of mormon or have not yet found it to be true i invite you to do as asked in moroni 10:3-5: 

 

 

3 Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder it in your hearts.

4 And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.

5 And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things.

 

 

I know this is true, it is. I know god loves all of you, your freinds, your family, and your enemies.for he loves all his children and he wants you back. I ask you all to please find one person to bring to christ. I know that if you ask the father and ask if thats what we will have you do than you can do it. As promised in the book of mormon by nephi, when he said, "I will go and do the things which the Lord hath commanded, for I know that the Lord giveth no commandments unto the children of men, save he shall prepare a way for them that they may accomplish the thing which he commandeth them."

 

 

1:pizza day (i don't know why i look like i have the pleuge in this one but i dont)

2: this is our friend doris, she is super funny and has "adopted us" so we send send letters home one in a while but we cant leave.
