Germany Week 17

Hey there Mom, sounds like you had a pretty good week.
I've had one too.
So last Monday I did buy myself some gloves, a scarf and an old man hat. They came to 34 €. I love them a lot. Though 34€ is sounding like more to me now than it did at the time. But I promise, they were the cheapest ones I could find that didn't have Hello Kitty on them. ;P I actually love them very much. Now I have the same type of hat as every old man in Germany. Some old men in America have them too, but not as many. Once I have a camera again, I'll send you a picture of how amazing I look as an old man.
What else happened this week...? Well, we went to Osnabrück three days in a row, which was quite the party. Monday we went for Vorbereitungstag, then Tuesday we went to babysit Elder Crowther between the time Elder Bossart left and Elder McCallister came - and we wandered around there for a while trying to get in contact with people. We were also using our Niedersachen trainticket, which may or may not work on the Busses there... You see, we took one bus, the driver said it was good, and took us to the next bus, where the driver said it wasn't - so then we went to another bus that was going to the same place, and he said it was good, but then when we caught that same bus on the way back, the driver said it wasn't good, but since the other driver had brought us out there with it, he'd be willing to bring us back just this once.... I don't know if my words were too garbled for that story to make sense, but hopefully it at least conveys the confusion we experienced as to the validity of Neidersachen Tickets on the Busses of Osnabrück. Then on Wednesday we went there again with the Thoms for District meeting, which was also quite the party.
We had a couple pretty good lessons this week, but we had more fall out. We were able to make out several appointments for next week, which will hopefully go well (mostly with former investigators...)
One really great thing was that M showed up to church yesterday with her two daughters even though she was late and had a terrible headache. I ended up staying with her in the Primary when we went to drop her kids off - I think it was really good for her. First, her kids seemed to really enjoy it, she saw that they enjoyed it, and there was a very simple lesson that touched on a lot of different things like Church Attendance, the Sacrament, Prophets, and the Scriptures. With her level of German, I think it was good that it was very simple and directed at children - I think she understood a lot of it. She was also able to meet and talk with some of the Spanish speaking members, which was really great. We've had a few appointments fall out with her, but she really seems to like church, and I think she could really make a lot of progress.
So that's most of what I've got to say, so I hope you have a marvelous week. I know the church is true, I know that as we turn to the saviour we will find the greatest measure of happiness, and we will receive the comfort and support that we need. Love you!
