Miracle Mannheim! 6/2/14

There are MIRACLES happening here in Mannheim. Miracle Mannheim. So we're teaching this way awesome prepared woman, and we had a couple lessons with her last week, and she was reading in the BM and everything. She said she would come to church on Sunday, and church started and we were way sad because NOBODY was there. None of our investigators came, and we had been meeting with a ton of less actives who said they would also come. But then like fifteen or twenty minutes in EVERYBODY in the world shows up. It was sooooo cool. Our Gospel Principles class was the fullest its ever been. It was so awesome! The woman we're teaching said she didn't want to come to church cuz she had a way bad headache, but then she just had this feeling that she really, really needed to be there. We're so happy! And another one of our investigators is doing so much better. She's been having a lot of family problems lately, but she actually asked for a blessing from the Elders! Sister Lehman has been telling her to get a blessing since October, but she's always been a little hesitant, but on Friday she actually called us and asked for one. It was such a huge miracle. Sister Lehman cried cuz she was so happy lol. And some less actives came and asked us to teach some of their family members who aren't members. So we have a lot planned for this week!
We went on a hike with the ward on Thursday. That was really nice. The ward is soooo loving. Yesterday a nice couple invited us over after church and stuffed us full of rouladen and knödel and bubbly water. (Typical German food--you can google it if you want to know more) It was way good. Then they stuffed us with cake. I could barely move afterward. Then it was our investigators birthday so we brought cake over and sang happy birthday and ate MORE cake. Uggghhh I felt sooo gross, haha. But now I'm hungry cuz it's a new day and it's almost lunch time! Last week for PDay we went to this place a little farther away called Felsenmeer (also Google-able). It's like this giant giant rockslide, and we climbed up it. Took a really long time, and it was waaaay fun. We want to go back sometime this transfer. I'll have to send pictures next week--I forgot my card reader, sorry! Anyway, it was really fun. Today we might make it out to the Speyer Dom. We'll see if we have time.
Sister Lehman is still here, haha, and will be here for at least another week or two. Transfer calls are next week. That's really crazy. Crazy to think that June is here as well! Also there's going to be a really big 2-stake conference in a couple weeks with the Area Presidency, and guess where it's going to be?? HANAU!!! I am soooooo excited. Also really puzzled why they're having it in Hanau, cuz Hanau the city is a little dinky town, haha. I guess they rented out this ginormous city hall auditorium thing. But still I am soooooo excited to go back there and see everything again! I'm going to see people from Frankfurt, too, because it's a huge stake conference. I am super stoked.
