3 months dooooooooooooooooown!!! and What a week here in székesfehérvár!!
We started out the week with an adventure. haha My comp and I got on a bus to go see our investigator Andréa and on the way, Withers had this idea to get familiar with the area while we were on the bus, just in case we wanted to tract over here someday. So, we kept going for like 20 minutes, and I had this feeling like we needed to write the street names down. we wrote them down and got familiar with everything, then totally realized WE WERE ON THE WRONG BUS. hahah ahhh luckily the Spirit saved the day and we had everything written down!! that ended up being probably one of the best days of my mission! we were able to go tracting at these adorable little családi házak and we just had such a great time being lost haha.
A little lost in Hungary |
Yesterday we had the most AMAZING DAY. so we have this perfect little recent convert named Regina, and she is 18 and she invited us, and like the whole branch over to her house for a hungarian BBQ for the Hunarian holiday we had yesterday. We started out with some archery (so cool right?) her dad is like a professional archer-er and he totally taught us how and it was such a blast. Then we had my first hungarian bbq and it was soooo exciting. what they do is they give you a big piece of literal fat, and you roast the fat over a fire and then let it drip onto your bread, and then you cut up paprikás, és tomatoes, és onions and it is just the most delicious thing you've ever tasted. yay for hungarian food :) suuuper fun day and super fun to get to know the branch even better.
I also want to talk about a couple of my investigators really quick! i have this one investigator named Paczur Balász who I just am so invested in. I feel like I am on a mission TO HELP HIM. He is such a hard investigator, and he always has so many questions, but this week we had the most amazing lesson with him. the spirit in that room was so strong and i think we really sparked something within him! We had this huge spiritual prompting to tell him to read the whole Book of Mormon, and that we will do it with him, so i will let you know how that goes. I just adore him with my whole world. Another little miracle we have is Zoltan. Zoltan is this bácsi who can just talk your little ear off. We went tracting one day and he was the first one we csengőd!! he is super religious, LOVES God. is SO accepting of everything we have taught him. were super excited about him!!! such an adorable guy.
I love this gospel. I am so thankful for my mission. missions are inspired and we are all exactly where we should be. I hope everyone has the best week possible!!!! I'm praying for you all!!!!!
