Dear family:

So I don't even know where to start with this week. It was funny, weird, and spiritual. So we had some really cool lessons this week. We went to go visit a less active member name Bruder de Sousa and he actually has a really strong testimony. He reads and prays every day. We started teaching him, and his kids who aren't members came and listened in, and he wants us to continue teaching his children COOL! Their mom doesnt believe in God, and that makes it hard for the kids because they are caught between a mom that doesn't have any faith and a Mormon father that does everything except come to church soooo our work is cut out for us. Bruder de Sousa said I look like Bill Clinton sooooo I got smashed at his house too. It was a weird lesson.

Next, we taught Danny. He is the son of some less actives we meet with and are making a ton of progress. Danny is punk 17 year old kid but he came to church the other day. He wants a Book of Mormon and he loves us. It was way cool. We also taught Monika and she is going to read in the Book of Mormon and pray to find out if it is true. The work is getting pretty exciting here!

Here comes the weird part. We met with some investigators named Gaby and Bernhardt( they have the son with Epilepsy) and we invited them to the ward party on saturday. They are going to come and thats great. Wealso mvisited with them for a while and things are going really good. WEIRD PART! She told Elder Evans that I was hot and would totally date me up if she was younger... EW! She is like 50, married, and also 50! Yup I felt way weirded out after that. Now I feel really awkward everytime I go over there haha.

We had the biggest lightning storm I have ever seen the other day. It came out of nowhere. We literally were running through a wall of water.

We had a finding day on Saturday and my German improved so much because of it. I talked to at least 500 people easy. I even had a conversation with one of Rosenheim's residential crazy men. He is going to come to the ward party now... NICE ONE ELDER CARR BRING THE CRAZY DUDE TO A PLACE WITH LOTS OF KIDS! I felt dumb but I didn't know he was crazy until after haha. Also, on our way to email our families for the week, there was a man and his wife from China who asked us for directions to a bank. We told him where to go and he gave us these good luck charms. He said ''they are from China!'' really excitedly and I was just like '' Yeah so is everything else on my body...'' haha. I didnt say that but I thought it.

I hope you all have a great week. Mom you are going to do great on your test. I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!! Jake good luck with cross country. TJ I love you too! Kacey have a good week at school. Dad have a great time at work.

I LOVE YOU!
