Ahoj Everyone!!
Well this week was fun and a little crazy. We started our week out with
big plans for a district vylet to a castle which we had to cancel due
to all the rain. :( So instead we played Bang! Yeah!)
The next day was
district meeting which was excellent as usual! Elder Christensen is an
awesome district leader. He gives very spiritually uplifting district
meetings. We talked about motivation and how to be of assistance to the branch....As a mission, we're working
towards a stake. It's really cool to see that the work is hastening
here and that the church is making progress.
On Wednesday, Sister Wilson was a little sick...not much just a little head cold and a cough. We didn't have a very hard day (we had service at someone's shop...we're helping them move). Then that evening the sister training leaders arrived. They were in Prague for a meeting and came to stay the night and then the next day, we had exchanges.

Thursday (early in the morning) Sister Krauel and Sister Wilson went to Trencin while Sister Barid and I stayed in Bratislava. It was really fun to be with Sister Baird again. We had an awesome day-found a bunch of people, found some service opportunities, taught a few lessons. It was really funny too because the Zone Leaders were also on exchange so we had one of the elders from Trencin in Bratislava as well-Elder Asay. He's been out about a year. He's a really nice elder and so sincere. He gives the best complements because he always means them and he's so happy all the time! Elder Asay is just a really great example for everyone! Sister Baird and I had a great time serving together one last time...we had a few interesting experiences like running into a girl we met together in Zilina or finding lots of service opportunities (something which Prezident told us to focus on).
On Friday we switched back and we went on with our missionary work. We had a singing display on plan but forgot to bring the form with us and didn't want to risk getting a fine so instead we just contacted. I met this really nice lady named An during it. I just smiled at her right as she was leaving a shop and she stopped because she thought we knew each other. She was so sweet and gave me like 3 hugs during our conversation and kept patting my arm. She told me she loves people and especially friendly people. She didn't want to meet with us but said she'd love to come to our concert in October.
Saturday was long...we had weekly planning which sometimes
makes me restless because we're inside for a longer amount of time then
usual. We also had sports day and I slightly injured myself (I bruised
my knee pretty badly and it's really tender right now). It was actually
right before sports day while we were waiting for everyone to arrive and
a few of us were playing volleyball with the soccer ball. I completely
forgot that we were on grass and sort of dropped to my knees in order to
save the ball. Well turns out a grassy field is a lot harder than a
sand pit. :) Sunday was the same as it normally is...church and
contacting.
Thank you for all your notes! I love hearing your news!
