Dear family:

I don't have much time so I hope that this message makes sense. haha

So I got my transfer call on saturday and I am staying for another transfer in Klagenfurt. We did a bunch of finding like usual this week and we actually got a potential this week! His name is William. He is from central Africa and knows a lot of Mormons. It was kind of funny actually. I started doing my thing in German and he saw that I had a book of Mormon and he said ''Oh the latter day saints!'' haha. It was really cool. He has a lot of friends in Ghana and lived there for a while haha. He gave us his number but we haven't been able to get a hold of him. 

That same day this drunk guy was yelling at us and motioned for us to come over...So we did haha. He then told me that he had a friend who needed us and then gave us a name and address. After we made a couple Sarovtov approach jokes we eventually made our way over to the apartment building and went up to this guys door and knocked. He answered and we talked for a little bit but he said that he is already meeting with JWs and doesn't want to meet with us. DANG IT! We will probably go back to that apartment building this week because it looked like there are some pretty humble people who need the gospel in there. 

A couple of days ago I was on an exchange with Elder Miller and we were contacting in the street and we were getting stuffed all day and then this one guy was walking towards us and Elder Miller tried to stop him and talk to him but as soon as Elder Miller said hello to him the dude spit on the both of us. That was the first time that has happened but that was one of my items on my mission bucketlist so that was pretty cool haha. Anyway keep praying for Elder Bolt and I. I really want to find someone to teach and baptize. 

Love you guys!
