Well you could say this new years was nothing different from the usual one I would have at home. New years I usually always am in bed at 9:30, with ear plugs in. It is really how I prefer to spend my holiday seasons you know?
Haha but this week was crazy. Kinda actually a really tough one for me and Sister Jensen. The work here in Veszprém is just really really slow, and it is sometimes super hard. We have been praying like crazy to find someone, anyone haha that we can help here in Veszprém. I know that there are people here prepared to hear our message, we just need to know where to find them. I was thinking, and praying about where we should tract yesterday, and I had the feeling to try tracting in this part of our area that I had never been to before. We followed this prompting and made our way over to the area. As we were tracting, this 25 year old ish guy walked by with his dog, and we decided to stop and talk to him. We gave him the usual "hey we are missionaries..." and he resonds in perfect english "are you guys the Mormons?"He told us about how he talked with missionaries a year ago, and how every day he watches a mormon family from Idaho on youtube, and how he really realizes how happy they are, and how they have something different about them. We ended up walking with him to this stunning park, talking about the gospel, and life. He was honestly just so prepared.We were talking about our missions, and why we are here in Hungary, and he literally said this sentence to us "So if i was to join your church, would it be too late for me to go on a mission?" like what?! Who on earth is just that prepared? I just want to testify that Heavenly Father hears, and answers our prayers. He will give us those answers, and those promptings every time, we just need to act on it.
