HOLY FLIP! I AM SO EXCITED FOR STEFAN! SWEDEN!!!!!!!!! THAT IS SO NUTZ! Thanksgiving looked awesome. I cant believe Tyler, Shannon, and the grandparents are moving up! I glad that it was 70 degrees for you because it definitely not over here haha. Our heating is out half the time so its like waking up in a freezer haha but thats ok because it makes me grateful when it does work. I don't know when I will be able to skype yet I have to see what families we are with. I can skype any day from the 24-26 but ask Stevie first when she wants it so I can try to plan it around that and It will be during the morning for you guys. I will keep the stokers in my prayers. Jake keep on winning those matches. Glad you had a great Thanksgiving TJ.

So heres the Week:

Right now Germany is in the Christmas spirit but no one wants to talk about Jesus haha. But the Christmas market opened up this week and they have some great stuff in there.

Monday: We taught Familie A. and that was basically it. It was a really chill P-Day.

Tuesday: Tuesday we had a district meeting and I have a great story about that but I have to save that one for after the mission because it is just so good and it probably shouldn't be posted in a Blog or anything haha. (I promise that I will never forget this story so don't worry.)

Wednesday: We had a lesson with D. and he explained to us that he isn't ready to be Mormon and we already new that. But we continue to work with him and hope that he will start making progress again.

Thursday:We had an eating appointment that was it.

Freitag: Contacting and Vorbeis. Boring day.

Samstag: OK NOW THE WEEK HAS BEGUN. So we got a phone call at 6:35 and it was the Zone Leaders with transfer calls and I found out that I AM STAYING IN ROSENHEIM FOR A FOURTH TRANSFER! I am so happy that i still get to be here. I am so excited to celebrate Christmas in Bavaria! It is going to be awesome. So we had 3 lessons on Saturday. It was the most lessons that I have taught on my mission in one day. We were running for trains and watching the clock all day haha. First we taught Mo. and we talked about prayer and it was a great lesson. We just set it all out for her that the only way that she will find out that this church is true. We then went to E.s and that was interesting. At lunch Bruder L. called me and gave me a talk on sSnday so I accepted and it worked out fine. Last of all we taught G. and B. and they poured out all of their struggles on us. I was way overwhelmed. I am just a 19 year-old kid. I don't have any real-life problems. But it is good that we are there for them and hopefully the little simple help that we give will help them. All we know is the Gospel. Pure and simple and that's all we can share. We don't provide a solution for problems we just provide the way.

Sonntag: I had a talk about the BOM and I blessed the sacrament for the first time in German. M. came to church again! we set up an appointment with him for Thursday and he told us thanks for our prayers and he said that he and his wife are back together! MIRACLES! I love it. That family is the biggest reason I am happy I am staying because I feel like they are going to make so much progress this transfer. We then went to a family in our ward and celebrated the 1st Advent with them and it was great.

So re-cap: I am staying in Rosenheim, Christmas is awesome, and the church is true.

Love ya
