Wow! what a week! I don't really know where to begin!
we
went down to Jihlava on exchanges with elder Prymak (he's great! I'm
pretty sure he was the one training me!) I stayed in pardubice, and
elder eliason got to go back to trebic with his old companion, elder
king! (another one of my favorites!) IT was a blast of a 24 hours. we
found some wonderful things, saw some great miracles. Missions are
wonderful!
as part of the exchange elder eliason and I gave a
little presentation on finding. It was great. a little dry run for the
training we have this week! (aH! trainings! I secretly can't wait for
it, but we still have a lot of preparation to do before we are ready for
it) It was a blast, we both felt really good about it before, during
and after. and Elder prymak said to me later it was exactly what he was
looking for. I love the gospel!
In other news I am getting a crash course of driving in
the czech republic. i am very safe! i meant crash course in that we are
driving a fair amount lately (we have tons of MOTAB cd's to listen to,
so that's taken care of! I love the choir! It is wonderful music) and i
may or may not have made a few wrong turns. But thanks to intricate
planning, even with a few wrong turns we should stay within our milage
limit. yay, planning!
We had a great week! tons of lessons, a few wild
teaching opportunities, and some great new insights into the scriptures!
I've been studying how to get revelation a little lately, and been
reading a lot from Joseph smith history and a talk by elder scott (the
man knows how to get revelation! well both of them do! :) I've been
learning oodles but a few things have just been having a place to
receive revelation, and having the faith to work for it and receive it.
I've been seeing a lot of answers to prayers lately, the only trick now
is to recognize them as they are happening! instead of when i write
about them or ponder about them later.
The zone had a great week! It is great to see the big picture!
sorry for the short time. i'll write you first next week.
i'm studying alma 18 right now for a while so feel free to join if you want to (share insights :)
love you tons momma thanks so much for the email!
