Everything is good here! Like I thought, Sister Wilson and I will be staying here another transfer, which is good. We're still figuring everything out for this area. BUT we did get bikes last week, which is awesome. It's no wonder the Germans love them. You can go so fast! Haha. But we have to wear helmets, so we look silly sometimes riding in skirts and helmets and stuff. It's okay, though, cuz they are a huge help. Plus it's a good way to work off all the German food we eat. :)
We're planning to go to another way cool castle. And then sometime in the next month Sister Wilson and I are going to take the train up to Fulda and just bike around it for our PDay. It is sooo beautiful. We were there the other day trying to visit members, and our Navi was being stupid and took us to this weird little hill, so we drove up the hill and SURPRISE there was this huge, beautiful Catholic church up there, and there was a wedding going on. So that was kinda awkward...The courtyard was little, so we had to turn around and drive back down the hill. But the bride looked really pretty! Haha.
So it's been a long, good week! We had interviews with President, too. He is just the coolest guy ever. And then transfer calls, and lots of member appointments and scrambling around trying to figure out how to get to appointments...Haha. That is the story of our life every day in Hanau. Also we woke up this morning to this huge weird loud noise, and then surprise a helicopter landed right in front of our apartment!! That was weird. There were lots of police and an ambulance and stuff. I have pictures to prove it, but I forgot them this week. Haha. It was so weird. Just a helicopter chilling there in an intersection of Hanau.
Nothing toooo exciting planned for this week. Just lots of missionary work! I can't believe it's the end of July. It's way hot here, but I heard it's hotter in the States right now. Sister Wilson and I watched a Christmas MOTAB concert last night after we got back in from an appointment. It was fun. We had Christmas in July, lol. But it made us excited for Christmas!!
Hope you all have fun and are safe this week! We're just plugging along, haha. Good thing that the Lord is in this work, or I don't know how it would all get done! Make sure that the ward is giving their missionaries work to do. Missionaries are really here to support and help the ward in THEIR missionary work! So make sure that they have appts. and are busy.
This ward out here is so awesome. I love them so much! We have this member who has two daughters out on a mission and whose son is finishing his papers. She is sooo cute, and she feeds us amazing delicious food, and lots of it. Last week we were at her house, and she fed us meat and potatoes and bread and salad, and then there were these apples and cookies and stuff, and we were so full. Then she brought out this HUUUGE basket of fruit, and I was like, Okay, fruit for dessert, I can do that. But then she brought out this like rasberry pudding with cream puffs, and then she brought out ice cream, and then she brought out a waffle maker and made us waffles. I was going to explode. But it was really really good! But...yeah. Good thing they give us time for exercise in the morning!
So yeah, the ward is awesome. We are so lucky to be able to serve them! Everything is going great out here. German is actually coming along pretty well right now, so that is awesome. I just need a couple more months, and I should be pretty good.
