Dear Family
So this week was really interesting and had some fun twists to it. last tuesday i got a call from both of the sisters that were in my group coming out to the country. it was their last day as missionaries and they we all talked on speaker phone for a few minutes. it was pretty cool to hear from them. am so thankful that we had sisters in our mtc group! they were really mature and helped out alot. it was a really fun conversation and it reminded me of how fast the time has gone. so i am now a bacsi.(old man) we get that name out here when the sisters in our groups go home...soo...i am that.
erzsike is doing really good and is completely off of coffee. we a working with her right now on the last commandment before baptism...tithing. this will be hard for her but we are working with her to show her that she can do it. the hardest part is knowing that she would give that and a whole bunch more but the problem is that she gets just enough from her retirement to pay the bills and keep her house in order...she lives a really simple life and loves how simple it is. she lives almost completly out of her own garden and is worried that this crazy weather will not provide for her winter needs...i hope it all works out. she is such a good person and wants and trys to do her best. this may be a stretch for her but she can do it. we went and picked apples for her the other day off from her one apple tree...she was tickled to see that she had a nice little harvest. it was cool to help out.
on friday we went and helped a guy build his house. he lived in enlgand for a long time and knows english but always speaks in hungarian with a few english words to help us with some vocab we dont know about building houses...its cool to see how they build their houses. its totally different. its cool though
soo this transfer me and my companion are just speaking hungarian with each other. its cool. i feel like i have progressed a ton in these last two trasnsfers...my companion is really smart with the language so i have learned a ton from him and we are always working together working on new ways to say things...the syl ing (speak your language) is helping a ton with that.
church yesterday...few in numbers but like mom said...it doest matter if there are 400 people there or 20 its still the same spirit. hey at least all the missionaries bore their testimonies....and one member:)serious
well dad...i guess you can go get that 60 inch tv now...ive waited for at least 7 years for this...and yep im expecting to wait 7 more:) i love you dad!
best of wishes
love
