Our ghetto oven doesn't work well, but they still tasted great. Thanks!!!! (I sent Ben a package with his favorite Betty Crocker cherry frosting and white cake mix.) |

Hey Peeps,
To start the week out, we had an awesome lunch with Jacky. It was a huge Peruvian feast! Her son Jeffrey
was super happy to have us over.
On Tuesday after our district meeting, I was on an exchange
with Elder Bruno. We met with Natalie
and had a super good lesson with her. She came to church on Sunday as well for the
2nd week in a row and even gave the lesson in one of the primary classes.
We were able to get contact with Umu again. She has been in Belgium for a week and a half,
so we couldn't meet with her. We had a
lesson and watched a talk by President Monson with her about serving others. She is still praying and reading in the Book
of Mormon every day. At the end of the
lesson she said an awesome prayer asking to know if President Monson was a true
prophet of God. She also thanked
Heavenly Father for blessing us with patience for her and that we are always
stopping by to check up on her.
We worked with the sisters in Tilburg this week as well. Sister Cowles and Fredrickson. They are both super cool sisters. They just barely opened up their area 3 weeks
ago and they started with nothing. We
had lunch with them and did some finding for a couple of hours to help them
build the work up in their new area.
To be honest, it was a pretty rough week as missionary work
goes. We had lots of lessons planned
that fell through and we got dropped and also had to drop quite a few people
this week. This is a good chance to find
some fresh new investigators. We will be
doing quite a bit of finding this upcoming week. We hope and pray that we will
be able to find some new people to teach.
We are also losing the Butlers this week. They are a senior couple in Eindhoven and go
home tomorrow. They have been so much fun to get to know. They will sure be missed by us as well as the
whole ward.
Have a great week everybody!
Enjoy college football.....
