Hallo Liebe Familie!!
Happy Happy Birthday to MATT this week!!!! I wish you the
most amazing birthday wishes for this coming Tuesday!!! You are the best,
thanks for your example to me!!!
This line in the subject is one from a hymn that has been in
my head all week long, it is so good!! Don't know the name in Englisch, but
it's great. This last week was great, we are continuing to see miracles here
and enjoying the crazy moments inbetween. Hmm, to summarize:
We had a conference call with just the trainers and
trainees, President gave us good advice on how to keep our focus, to work in
unity, and to continue to work on the language!
We had a sisters conference on Wednesday, it was basically
specialzed training. We went over more of the expectations, and what we sisters
can do to strengthen our image in the wards and stakes. Sister Kosak gave an
awesome theme about stress, and how we need all of these refining processes to
become what our Father in Heaven sees in us. President gave lots of good advice
too, and made sure that our wards are working well with the sisters. I came
away feeling that my Father in Heaven is proud of me for what I am doing, and
knowing that He is there for me. It was a needed boost for the week! We got to
play soccer with the president too! Ha, it was him and the AP's against all of
us.
We had an awesome lesson with Virginia and Vanessa this
week- Tauf Datum!!! We were talking about the temple with them, and Vanessa, who
is a member, was giving her testimony about the power of the spirit. Her
younger sister, Virginia who is 13 started to bear her testimony of her
experience on the temple grounds. And I had this wave of the spirit hit me, and
I knew it was the time to invite her to be baptized! We have a baptismal date
set for her on May 16th. It was the most spiritual experience, so amazing!
After, both me and sister Montierth were astounded at that lesson. Woo hoo!!
Another highlight: We stopped this lady on the street, and
she proceeded to tell us her all about her faith, belief on God, and with tears
running down her cheeks, told us the difficulties she has experienced as of
late. She was so amazing, and it was such a cool opportunity to bear our
testimonies to her that God knows her, her situation, and everything she is
going through. She told us that she was not interested in changing religions so
we gave her our number, and she thanked us for stopping her. Even if she didn't count as a
"number" for the day, that conversation totally counted to me! That
is what it is all about.
Sunday- Stake Conference- Wichian, Achim, and Fred came!!
Yahoo!!! It was amazing, we heard from our Mission Präsident and his wife, and
from a member of the 70. It was in this super fancy hotel because our stake
building isn't large enough.
It rained tons this week, so we had fun jumping in puddles
and looking like drowned puppies. #keepinitclassy
Thanks for all of the support fam and friends! I know that
the Lord is aware of us, and is very much involved in this work!! Keep praying,
keep going to church, keep your faith, doubt your doubts, and I promise that
it'll all come together!! I have seen that over and over here!
Also random- happy birthday Jack Robison- the 26th of
March!! Ha, hope word gets to him that sista' t. says sup!
Funnies:
- We had a random lady tell us our fortunes on the street.
"I have seen something about you two, you, you will have a hard time this
year, God is going to SHAKE you!! And you, you will be asleep and then you will
wake up, having made a 180 degree turn in your life." What? Ok, thanks!
Haha, it made no sense.
-Achim on the phone: When ever I see the sun, I think of
you. hahaha
Liebe Immer,
your sista' in Berlin,
Sister Titensor
