"Where is all our time?..."

Üdvözlök!

I honestly cannot believe how quickly my time is going here in Szeged, Elder Hughes and I are freaking out about the possibility of having to leave each other in another 2 weeks, but we're just living up the little time that we actually have together.

  Continuing our tradition of a ridiculous amount of exchanges, we started our week with exchanges with the assistants. We got dogged, taught a really good lesson, got a let in, did some finding, ate some indian food, it was an all round pretty good day and I learnt a lot from it.

  On wednesday we headed out to a little city just outside of Szeged to visit some members with one of the senior couples. They picked us a whole bunch of vegetables right out of their garden and told us to eat them. They were good but could use a little less dirt next time...

  Thursday we had our district meeting which was included our district leader, Elder Sharp, building a giant tent out of bed sheets in the middle of one of the classrooms in the meeting house and us all pretending to be part of Lehi's family as we reenacted parts out of 1 Nephi. It was actually super fun and really funny. We also met with the man that we tracted into last sunday and visited one of the members in the hospital.

  Friday started out a little sad because we had to say goodbye to one of our district members, Sister Beck. She had been struggling with some health problems for a while and they made the decision for her to go home this week

which was really sad. We then had exchanges with the elders from Szolnok and so we were able to teach a few lessons together to some of our more interesting investigators. I just really can't explain them here, they just need to be experienced, but they were great lessons.

  Saturday was a very busy day full of teaching many of our investigators before getting to kick off our wonderful conference weekend. I really enjoyed this general conference, it touched a lot of topics that we have been focusing on a lot with our investigators recently and so it should be a great help to them to be able to share the words of the leaders of the church with them. It was also a great testimony builder for me and I'm glad that we could participate in it.

Well that was my week. The church also just started it's new #PrinceOfPeace campaign, so if you haven't seen it yet, go watch the video, it's great.

Jó hetet!
