Čau!
So this week went by pretty fast which is kinda scary. We're already halfway through August. I don't like the way time flies as a missionary.
We finally started up English class again, which is good. It's a good finding source. We didn't have too many people show up, but I did get to meet a spiffy old man who just wrote a book about Vincent Van Gogh and who owns a lot of Van Gogh's original paintings. I love weird European people.
We went to this super cute hole in the wall cafe with this Turkish lady and her Brazilian friend. It was pretty cool. We got to find a new hole in the wall place in Prague, and we made some more international friends. Two of my favorite things.
I got to hold 2 baby kittens this week. If you're ever having a bad day, just find you some kittens or puppies. It will make everything better, I promise. We also went to a cat cafe this week. It's exactly what it sounds like. You walk in, and there are cats everywhere. Jumping on the counters, sleeping on the tables, running around the floor, etc. I've wanted to go to one since my first transfer just to say I've been, so I was stoked to go.
We had our last district council of the transfer, and to make it a good one, one of the elders bad the idea to do a district potluck. So we all brought food and had a potluck lunch together. Couldn't have thought of a better way to say goodbye to the district.
Not much of an update on the investigator side of things. Things have been in a kind of limbo because of transfers coming up soon. We're trying to figure out how to best proceed with the area without knowing what's gonna happen. But one of our friends is doing great! We didn't get to meet with him this week, but we are still in contact with him daily, so it's been good.
Oh. I also hit my year in the country mark this week. Still haven't wrapped my head around that.
Today we just spent our time walking around Prague and taking in everything. We also looked at some of the trhy (markets) on the naměstí. This city is gorgeous.
Spiritual Thought:
In the words of Ben, one of the best members here: "I miss it when the world was a little good."
The world is kinda hectic right now. It's probably not gonna slow down anytime soon cause we're in the last days, but we can still create that goodness in our lives even if it's not there in the world. Just look for the goodness. It's there if you look for it.
You guys are all the best! I'm so grateful for you, and I miss you a ton! Go hold a kitten or a puppy this week. You won't regret it.
