Crazy fetchin good week!

       Well this week was great!!!! We had an awesome mission conference with a member of the 70, Elder Adler, and he gave some amazing talks and insights about things!! We learned a ton about having faith in finding and just in general. After the meeting, Elder Moon and I had a split with the Zone Leaders and I got to bring Elder Rowe to the Gelsenkirchen hood!!! We ended up getting back so late that all we had time to do was plan for the next day and sleep. We were in Dortmund forever!! But we eventually got back! The next day we went by on an inactive family in the ward. We got to the address and I failed to put the right address in cuz I'm a noob. But it's ok because we got to talk to some cool people on the street and I got to learn tons from Elder Rowe.
       After that we had some Chinese food with a couple members and had a spiritual thought right there at the restaurant! It was honestly way spiritual and just amazing. If you get the chance to share a scripture and talk about it at your local Chinese restaurant, I would highly recommend doing it. Hahaha! After that we did some more contacting then split back with our comps at the end of the day.
       Later in the week we met with a recent convert and the spirit was sooo there. We came over, had some food, then shared a scripture about the Spirit of Christ and a quote about the Holy Ghost. We then talked about how important both of them are and also how different they are. It was way awesome and we could all feel the spirit sitting in on our lessons. Then, Elder Moon my crazy son followed the impression to ask our recent convert if she would pick a place on a map where we can go find, of course, we started with a prayer and definitely received revelation on where to go. She pointed out a little area than said don't cross the street and go to the hospital because it's bad at
night time and especially in the winter. Then another member texted us right then and told us the same thing. It was crazy!! We all just sat there with our jaws on the floor. Then our ward mission leader that was there said, "the Lords Holy Spirit is with us." Hahahaha i wanted to laugh just cuz of how we all looked!!! But luckily I held it in and didn't laugh the spirit away.
       We have yet to visit the place that our recent convert picked out, but sadly we have had absolutely no time to do it. But we are planning on it this Tuesday so pray that we will find as many investigators that the Lord will give us!!
       Well before I leave I'd like to just leave my short, simple, but firm testimony that I know we are the Lord's children. At times life can get hard and it seems like there is no time to catch up, but I can testify that I know that the Atonement will pick us up and carry us, just like the Savior Jesus Christ picks up the lost sheep. We are all that one sheep that has lost his or her way. If we can just simply come to him he will always, every time, without fail, pick us up and carry us. The Atonement is real and i can testify it is so real! Its power is from the most high and the best thing is that it will always be there I love you all and hope you have a good week!!
