Germany Week 43


So yeah, it was a pretty good week. Lots of doors. yup...

I guess I have one slightly more exciting thing to say. So Wednesday, at least I think it was Wednesday, when we were going out to do doors, this guy was just standing on the street, holding a Netto Bag (Netto's a grocery store). As we walked toward him, he just smiled at us and then started talking to us. He was like, "I want to talk to you guys about God - So we need to walk over to this Bench." So then he had us sit on the bench, he pulled out some Wine and some chips from the bag, and asked me to hold the chips while he peed in the bushes, which I of course did gladly, as any responsible citizen would. Then he was like, "ok - tell me the 12 commandments." Then Elder Welker and I just told him different commandments and good things to do and stuff and he would kind of just get going off on stuff... so he was talking to us for, I dunno, 40 minutes... then We were like, well, we don't have too much time, we wanted to go talk to some people... Then he just said he wanted to come along. There was also this group of guys standing a little ways away from us, and he said, "let's go talk to them about God!" One of those guys had already told us they weren't interested, and more than that, I wasn't particularly interested in including our new friend in our street contacting, so we declined, and just left. So this guy was like, "Fine, I'll talk to them alone." So then we left, and tried by a contact, who wasn't home - but then we saw that our friend was back, just staring at us. So we ended up talking to him a little bit more, before he accepted our reason that we had to visit some people alone. 

And.. that was our best appointment of the week. Just kidding, we did have one other appointment, and that went quite well.

Well, have beautiful weeks and beautiful lives, all you beautiful people!
