Just another week at the office!

       Well I'll be pretty honest it was another solid week in the Gelsenkirchen hood! We had a bunch of member and recent convert lessons, but sadly our only investigator at the moment is out of town till the end of this week.
       One thing that was pretty wild is when we did our weekly planning on Friday we set a goal to have two new investigators and two referrals received. Well come to find out at church yesterday, the bishop's sister came up and told us that she has two coworkers that have interest. So if things happen to work out with these homies then boom that's two goals achieved! Hahaha! But missions aren't about the numbers, in reality, it's about "helping others come closer to Christ!" It's not whoever reactivates or baptizes the most people win in the after life, it's the little things that turn into big things later down the road or in the near future!
       For something funny this week, we went out to a city clear out in the middle of nowhere to go by on an inactive. Well we didn't realize how far he was till we pulled up the map and he was almost 3 miles away from our bus stop. We were probably just under halfway before we turned around and came back! Haha it was a real bummer but the walk was pretty cool and we only got to talk to about 3 people the whole way! Haha!
       Well sorry for the short lame email this week! I worry about putting everything into my weekly because I don't want it to end up in the ensign! Hahaha I'm totally joking! I hope everyone has a schön and süß week! (Gleichseitig) haha!
