Zdar!
Why do the weeks keep going so fast? Time flies.
So Facebook finding has been an adventure. We basically friend and message 50+ people every day. Some people are nice and have a conversation about faith with you. Some people shock you and ask YOU to meet up and talk about faith rather than the other way around. Some people try to mess with you and switch languages with every text they send. And then some people tell you to "stop bothering me" and then proceed to block you. So it's basically normal missionary work but online. Life's a party.
We met up with this girl whose mom and sister are members, but for years she has refused to talk to the missionaries. Last transfer, Sister Draper got tight with her and they're friends now. We had a picnic with her in the park, and she's so cool. I love people like her.
This member here in Prague invited us over to watch sacrament meeting with him and his girlfriend and 11 Filipino women. His girlfriend is Filipino, so a ton of her friends came over. They cooked us so much Filipino food. It was dang good.
Highlight of the week: (get ready) Sister Johnson and I were comps again for a day! She came to Prague for exchanges, and we just got to do missionary work together all day. I haven't really seen her since first transfer, so it was such a great reunion. I miss her. Now if we could just convince President and Heavenly Father to let us be comps again.
Spiritual Thought:
I was watching the new Book of Mormon video where Alma and Amulek are preaching, and something stuck out to me. Alma was very bold and a leader when he taught. When Amulek taught, he was more reserved and quiet, but still bold. They had different teaching styles, but they were both needed. They were both effective. They both fulfilled their mission.
We all have different missions. We all have different roles and gifts and purposes. But that doesn't make your role any less important than the person next to you. We all make a difference. We all are needed.
Love you all! I love this gospel. I love being a missionary.
