Hallo!
Frohen Montag! Happy beginning to
Summer break :) Sending Austin and Emily away already, off to the East coast
and off to Santa Barbara.[Dad note:
Austin NewYork, BSA camp 10 mile river- Camp Keawo and Emily to Especially for Youth] My vote is for a
long walk on the beach then a temple date. Have fun! Classic Austin, he loves
looking out windows for long car rides too [Dn:
Unfortunately we did not know Austin would need a “mobile device” to enjoy the
in flight entertainment and he forgot his book on the stairs]) Does he have
an email address that you could send to me?
Yep, working on taking more pictures
too, glad you liked what I sent you. We visit castles and old churches, the
zoo, eat ice cream, other good things like that on p-day [Preparation Day, one
day per week]. Still do garden work every once in a while, meet with church
members, try to find people who are interested in developing their relationship
with God further and teach people. We also have missionary meetings, at least
one a week, and church. I just try to focus on weekly highlights or cool things
that I learned or focused on within the week.
"20 Questions" About my
companion:
Elder Cloward is 20 years old, from
Salt Lake (born in Arizona). He's been on his mission for almost a year and 1/2
and has served in Bomberg and Duisberg. I cut his hair last night (I did a good
job I think, I hope. I cut my own hair too, just like in college). He's funny
and fun to work with, looking forward to more good things in Mainz together.
He's also very patient with me trying to introduce him to the area, people and
good stuff like that. We got lost once trying to find someone’s house, took the
right bus but couldn't quite find the home. Elder Fitzgerald knew his way
around :) and questions that I didn't get to?
Speaking about good things in Mainz,
a man who we are teaching has a baptismal date. Pray for Marco to be prepared
to be baptized, August 1st. What at times isn't understood is that baptism is a
sacred covenant, not just getting wet and joining an organization, but making a
very important promise between you and God. People need to understand the
significance of it and really prepare before they enter the baptismal font.
I also attached my talk that I gave
a few weeks ago. There were a few more edits that didn't get added in on the
typed one, but there you go :)
Have
[that’s where it ends]
