The magic Slippers!

Hello Familie!! 

How is everyone doing this week??? Wasn't General Conference Amazing!! Wow. This church is sooo true. I tell you. The power that you feel each time someone talks from that pulpit is incredible. This is Gods church on the earth.
This week was wonderful for Sister Shelley and I. Amazing things are happening here in Langenhorn!!! This week we were able to make contact again with a potential investigator that we had lost contact with. We invited her to general conference and she said that she would bring her husband and her daughter! We were so excited and even more excited when they came to the Sarurday Night session! We were thrilled to see them. She really enjoyed it and had a great time. She told us that she was ready to meet with us and have the lessons. We are so thankful for the spirit she was able to feel at gerneral conference. It softened her heart and now she is a new investigator! 

OH MY GOODNESS!!! BEST WEEK EVER! So each wednesday we go to this service project. It is called Tafel. It is where people come and get food that grocery stores in the area donate. It is really wonderful and a great way to contact people! Well for the last couple months I have helped the same woman. She is so sweet and I LOVE HER. Well, one day I was wearing those nasty... well kinda nasty... sister missionary black shoes I have.... and she was looking at them. She kept asking me what size of foot I had. She said, I love those shoes. Can i look at those shoes. Can I have those shoes... Well what do you do when a sweet old woman asks for your shoes?!?

No sillies... I didi not give them to her... then what would I have worn home! haha. No I just told her where I bought them, in America. Ofcourse when I said in America she liked them even more. Then she said, well what if i brought you some shoes. Would you like that. I told her that was very sweet but not neccessary, but she insisted! So this week my sweetheart best friend old german lady brought me some shoes and guess what!! THey were homemade crocet slippers!!!!!
And then she gave me some rotting fish to try as welll... I pasted on the fish but am in love with my slippers. And this is another reason to go on a mission!

Yes, to get homemade slippers, but more importantly to meet people. To talk to people. To make friends with people you would never even dream about meeting. I love this woman and I dont even know her name. She has tried to tell me, but I can not understand it for the life of me... haha. But she is so amazing. I thank the lord everydaz that I am here meeting the people I am. Associating with these incredible people. I love it here.

I love being a missionary. It is so wonderful!!! 

I love you family. Remember that god is always there waiting to put people into our lives that will change it for the better !! I love you!!!
