Called to serve Feb 2016

Officially past half way.

Sziasztok

Not the craziest of weeks but still some good experiences.

We had a devotional with Elder Pino of the Seventy this week, which was a super cool experience because he gave his talk in Spanish. It was cool to see a general authority speak in their native tongue to us like that and we still got a great message through the translator. So yeah, that was a cool experience.

On Wednesday we finally got our new district of Dutch missionaries. So with that we finally got to do some things as Zone Leaders. We got to greet them on wednesday and play some get to know you games and stuff with them, so that was cool. Then we had a meeting with the Branch presidency with them as well. That was super cool because it was basically the same as the one that we did when we first got here but we could actually absorb some of what was being said this time because we weren't just completely shell-shocked. But they've been asking us plenty of questions and we've been hanging out with them heaps, so they're all pretty cool. They're mostly sisters but the two elders are pretty cool.

My companion gave me a little taste of home the other night because he got his mum to send him some Tim Tams, so we took some hot chocolate from the cafeteria and had some Tim Tam slams in our residence that night. It was so good!

We've been using some of our extra time in our residence at night to come up with some sports with the few materials that we have. So like stick-ball or paddle-bat. It's pretty sweet.

We also had Gabel tie day on Saturday, so we all wore one of Elder Gabel's ties because he has some sweet ties. We may be going a little crazy because that was a pretty exciting thing.

Anyway, that's pretty much all I had to talk to about today, like I said this week wasn't particularly exciting, besides our Dutch missionaries.
