Transfers

This week was really good. It went by so fast! Last Monday we went hiking with Schwester Stein. That was so much fun and we spoke German with her all day. It is so cool to see  how much better my German is from when I got here 12 weeks ago. Which is cool because now that I have been here 2 transfers I am no longer considered a "golden". Now I am just a normal missionary. Sister Bunderson is no longer my trainer, just my companion. 

This week we started by calling all over the zone looking for anyone who want to share Book of Mormons with us. We have been giving them away so quickly! There was one day this week where we gave out 4 and could have given out 2 more, but we didnt have any more on us. It has been so cool to see that our testimony of the Book of Mormon has grown and because of that, when we share it, people are more interested. We gave away 3 Arabic this week and the guys immediatly started reading it and asking questions. That lesson ended with them asking if they could read the whole book before giving us an answere about it! We didnt even bring up anything about asking them if it was true! So cool. 

Later this week we randomly decided to go to the church. We had just been there and gone back to Bonn, but we decided to go to the church so we did. As we were walking to the church building, we ran into a guy we met forever ago. Apparently he wanted to meet with us and was hoping we were at the church so he had come with his friend to walk around the church. We got on a bus back to Bonn with them and taught a lesson on the bus. We gave them a Book of Mormon and a Plan of Salvation pamphlet and they both just started freaking out. They thought it was just about the coolest thing ever! It was amazing. We are planning to meet with him later this week. Hopefully it will go well. 

Well this last week was the last week of the transfer. That means transfer calls. Because Sister Bunderson is no longer my trainer and she has been in Bonn since October it was pretty certain she was going to leave. However, we were both convinced she was staying one more transfer in Bonn. Unfortunatly we were both wrong. Sister Bunderson is leaving and going to Feucht. That is just about as far away from Bonn as you can get. I am taking over Bonn and have to be in charge of everythin here. I have only panicked a lot since Saterday. Dont worry. It will be interesting, but deffinantly a new adventure. I just am really sad to be loosing Sister Bunderson. We had so much fun together.

This week we didnt really have one scripture we have been sharing. The last couple of days we have been sharing Alma 36:17-21 when Alma is telling Helaman how drastically Christ changed his life. It was been so cool to share that and really just feel the spirit smack the member in the face. It is amazing how powerful Christ is. When we stop people on the street, they are fine to listen to us until we mention Christ. ( Wir haben ein tolles Botschaft über Jesus Christus... Ok tschüß!) It is amazing how hard Satan works against just the name of Christ and yet how powerful his name is. I love it so much!

Have an awesome week ! Ich liebe euch!

Liebe

PS - sorry no pictures this week. We didnt do much. Today Sister Bunderson just packed and went shopping because Feucht is so tiny and he wanted to go to H&M one more time before she left.
